“…In Vivo Seeding Assays-We compared the nucleation capacities of HttEx1Q48 fibrils assembled in the absence or the presence of Hsc70 using the assay we established in reporter cell lines (10,34). In summary, U2OS cells stably expressing soluble mCherry fluorescent protein fused to HttEx1Q25 (HttEx1Q25-ChFP) were grown in McCoy's 5A medium supplemented with 10% FBS, 2 mM glutamine, 100 units/ml penicillin, 100 g/ml streptomycin, and 500 g/ml G418 on poly-L-lysine-coated coverslips.…”
