The columns remained shaking at 4°C for 1.5 h, then were

washed twice with 10 ml of IPP150 and subsequently two times with 10 ml of TEV Cleavage Buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl pH8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 0.5 mM EDTA, 1 mM DTT). A volume of 200 μL of TEV Cleavage Buffer and 35 μL of TEV protease (approximately 100 units) were added to the column and incubated for 1 h shaking at room Small molecule library screening temperature. After that, the supernatant was collected by eluting twice with 250 μL of Calmoduline Binding Buffer (CBB) (10 mM β-mercaptoethanol, 10 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 0,1% Triton X-100, 2 mM CaCl2). The sample was supplemented with CaCl2 (4 μl of a 0.2 M stock) and the mixture was transferred into an eppendorf with 300 μL of Calmoduline beads (previously washed 4 times with CBB). Incubation was performed for 45 minutes while

shaking at 4°C; subsequently the sample was transferred into a new column and washed twice with 5 ml of CBB. As a final step, we eluted proteins with 600 μL of Calmoduline Elution Buffer (10 mM β-mercaptoethanol, 10 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, EVP4593 chemical structure 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM CaCl2). If indicated 0.1 μg/ul of RNase A was added during the step of binding to calmodulin resin. Final elutions were precipitated with acetone and pellets were sent for mass spectrometry Ruboxistaurin cell line service (http://​mslab-ibb.​pl/​). Raw mass spectrometry data were treated using MaxQuant software to obtain label free quantification data [18]. Sucrose gradient separation Sucrose gradients were prepared as described [5]. Cultures Silibinin were grown until the exponential growth phase and/or in cold shock (as described before). Chloramphenicol was added into the culture (final concentration 0.1 mg/ml) which remained for 3 minutes shaking under the same conditions. Cultures were transferred into a centrifuge tube filled until 1/3 of the volume with ice, centrifuged at 5000 rpm, during 10 minutes at 4°C. Pellets were resuspended with 0.5 ml of cold Buffer A (100 mM NH4Cl, 10 mM MgCl2, 20 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5), transferred into an eppendorf and lysozyme solution was added to a final concentration of 0.1 ug/ul.

Cells were frozen in liquid nitrogen for 5 minutes and then thawed in an ice water bath (this step was repeated twice). Subsequently, 15 ul of 10% Deoxycholate was added to complete the cell lysis and the sample was centrifuged at 17000 rpm for 10 minutes at 4°C. Supernatant was carefully transferred into a new eppendorf and stored at -80°C. Amounts of RNA were determined using NanoDrop equipment and approximately 600 ug was added into the top of the sucrose gradient. Samples were centrifuged at 35000 rpm for 3 h at 4°C, using an SW41 Ti rotor. Gradients were separated using AKTA equipment and UV spectra were monitored. Gradient fractions were precipitated with TCA and proteins were separated on SDS-PAGE gels and subjected to standard western blot analysis.
