- snRNA U6 gene was reported to be transcribed by RNA polymerase III, which produces the short transcripts with uridines at the 3' end, we amplified the genomic fragment of snRNA U6 gene containing its promoter region by PCR using a set of primers,
- the Bam ⁇ l, Xhol digested fragment containing the snRNA U6 gene was purified and cloned into nucleotide 1257 to 56 fragment of pcDNA3.1(+) plasmid, which was amplified by PCR with a set of primer, 5'-TGCGGATCCAGAGCAGATTGTACTGAGAGT-S' (SEQ ID NO.13) and 5'- CTCTATCTC GAGTGAGGCGGAAAGAACCA-S ' (SEQ ID No.14).
- the ligated DNA was used as a template for PCR with primers, 5 ' -TTTAAGCTTGAAGACTATTTTTACATCAGGTTGTTT TTCT-3' (SEQ ID No.15) and 5 ' -TTTAAGCTTGAAGAC ACGGTGTTTCGTCCTTTCCAC A-3 ' (SEQ ID No.16) (underlines indicate HindHl site).
- the product was digested with Hin ⁇ ill, which was subsequently self-ligated to produce psiU6BX3.0 vector plasmid.
- PCR product was cloned into pcDNA3.1-myc/His vector (Invitrogen), and then the inserted FZDlO cDNA with myc/His-tag was further subcloned into pCAGGS/neo expression vector.
- an internal-tagged HA-FLAG-FZDl OFL (residue 1-581; SEQ ID No.2), expression plasmid constructs were generated from the cloned full-length FZDlO cDNA by PCR amplification with following primer combinations:
- FZD10-nt652 5'-AAGTCGACTACTGGAGCCGCGAGGACAAG-S' (SEQ ID NO.21)
- FZD10 ⁇ C2 (residues 1-525) expression plasmid constructs were generated and C-terminal portion (residues 218-each end) of each construct was generated by the forward primer (FZD10-nt652) and the following reverse primers, respectively;
- Plasmids expressing siRNAs specific to FZDlO were prepared by cloning the double- stranded oligonucleotides into psiU6BX3.0 vector (Table 1).
- the target sequences for siRNA in each plasmid are shown in Table 2.
- the complementary oligonucleotides were each phosphorylated by incubation with T4-polynucleotide kinase at 37 °C for 30 min, followed by boiling and cooling down to room temperature slowly to anneal the two oligonucleotides. Each product was ligated into psiU6BX3.0 to construct an FZDlO-siRNA expression vector.
- Table 1 Sequences of specific double- stranded oligonucleotides inserted into siRNA expression vector psi-U6BX-FZD20-B
- FZDlO constructs Two FZDlO constructs, HA-FLAG-FZD 10 (described below) and FZDIO-myc-His (prepared in Example 1; Fig. 2A) were co-transfected into COS-7 cell and were performed co-immunoprecipitation using ⁇ -HA antibody.
- HA-FLAG-FZD 10 For the construction of HA-FLAG-FZD 10, a following set of oligonucleotides, 5 ' -ACGTGTCGACTACCCATACGACGTCCCAGACTACGCTATGGACTACAAGG ACGACGATGACAAGCTCGAGATGC-3' (SEQ ID No.37) (underline indicates Sail site) and 5'-GCATCTCGAGCTTGTCATCGTCGTCCTTGTAGTCCATAGCGTAGTC TGGGACGTCGTATGGGTAGTCGACACGT-S' (SEQ ID NO.38) (underline indicates Xfjol site) was annealed and digested with SaK and Xhol to generate the HA-FLAG tag.
- 5 ' -ACGTGTCGACTACCCATACGACGTCCCAGACTACGCTATGGACTACAAGG ACGACGATGACAAGCTCGAGATGC-3' (underline indicates Sail site)
- residues 1-217 and 218-sto ⁇ codon (or C-terminal deletion) fragments were individually PCR-amplified. PCR products were digested with Sail and Xtiol, and ligated sequentially into pCAGGS/neo expression vector. The HA-FLAG tag fragment digested with SaIL and Xhol was ligated between nt651 and nt652 in frame.
- COS-7 cells were maintained in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and antibiotics. FuGENE ⁇ (Roche) was used for transfection of COS-7 cells. The transfected cells were used 48-72h after transfection.
- Transfected COS-7 cells were washed twice with cold PBS(-) and lysed in IPP buffer. The cell lysate was incubated with anti-HA F7 antibody (Santa Cruz) and protein G-sepharose (Sigma). Bound proteins were washed five times with IP buffer and eluted with SDS-sample buffer. Eluted proteins were analyzed by 10% SDS-PAGE. Proteins were electrophorestically transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (Amersham Biosciences). The membranes were incubated with anti-myc 9E10 monoclonal antibody, anti-FLAG M2 antibody or anti-HA F7 antibody followed by horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody (Amersham Biosciences). Bound secondary antibodies were visualized by ECLTM Western blotting detection reagents (Amersham Biosciences).
- HA-FLAG-FZD 10 As shown in Fig. 2B, upper panel, immunoprecipitated HA-FLAG-FZD 10 seemed to appear as multiple bands that were once or twice the predicted molecular mass and the highest band was stacked at the top of the running gel for SDS-PAGE, suggesting that FZDlO are able to form oligomers. Furthermore, using a ⁇ -HA antibody to pull down HA-FLAG-FZD 10 resulted in co-immunoprecipitation of FZDlO-myc-His (Fig.
- FZDlO contains two motifs, KTxxxW (Umbhauer M, et al. (2000). EMBO J. 19:4944-4954), which is located at two amino acids after the seventh transmembrane domain, and TCV motifs at the predicted C-terminal which are thought to be important for protein-protein interaction.
- Fig. 2A To examine the involvement of these motifs in oligomerization, we designed two C-terminal deleted constructs (Fig. 2A) whether they can form oligomers. As shown in Fig. 2C, pull down with ⁇ -HA antibody resulted in co-immunoprecipitation of FZD10-myc-His, suggesting that C-terminus motifs of FZDlO might be not involved in oligomerization.
- TAP Tandem affinity purification-system purification was performed according to previous report (Rigaut G, et al. (1999). Nat Biotechnol, 17:1030-1032). Briefly, pCAGGS/neo-FZDIO-TAP or pCAGGS/neo-TAP as control were transfected to SNU-C5 cells.
- TAP expression vector For construct of TAP expression vector, cDNA for the TAP tag sequence, consisting of immunoglobulin G-binding domain and calmodulin-binding peptide separated with the cleavage site of Tabacco each virus protease (TEV) with SaH at 3' end was PCR-amplified according to standard protocols (Fig. 3A). First, TAP tag sequence mentioned above was cloned into pcDNA-3.1(+)-myc-His expression vector. Next, pcDNA-3.1(+)-myc-His-TAP was digested with Xhol and Sail and resulted myc-His-TAP fragment was inserted into pCAGGS/neo vector.
- the FZDlO ORF cDNA was subcloned into pCAGGS-myc-His-TAP/neo expression vector.
- Colon cancer cell line, SNU-C5 was maintained in RPMI1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and antibiotics. FuGENE ⁇ (Roche) was used for transfection of SNU-C5 cells.
- COS-7 cells (Fig.3C).
