Proteins were separated using 10% gel with an electrophoresis cells (GE Life Technologies). To separate α- and β-tubulins, 10% gel was prepared using a stock solution of 40% acrylamide solution (Meryer) supplemented with 0.54% bisacrylamide (w/v) powder (Yuanye) according to a protocol reported previously (39 (link)). After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane using a semidry blotter (GE Healthcare). Membranes were incubated with anti-His tag (1:5000 dilution; Immuno Way), anti-glutamylation (GT335, 1:4000 dilution; Adipogen), anti-polyglutamylation (polyE, 1:4000 dilution; Adipogen), anti-α-tubulin (EP1332Y, 1:4000 dilution; Abcam or DM1A, 1:4000 dilution; Sigma), or anti-β-tubulin (anti-β-tubulin, 1:50,000 dilution; Proteintech) antibody. Immunoreactivity of proteins was visualized with WesternBright ECL (Advansta) using Western Blot Imager (Vilber) after incubation with horseradish peroxidase–labeled goat antimouse (1:5000 dilution, Bioss) or donkey anti-rabbit (1:5000 dilution, Bioss) antisera.

To examine the biocompatibility of the plasmonic NP-graphene interface, cells incubated for 24 h were fixed with 4% formaldehyde in PBS for 15 min at RT and permeabilized with 0.4% Triton X-100 for 15 min. The cells were washed twice with PBS for 15 min. For imaging microtubules, after blocking the cells with 5% BSA in PBS for 1 h, cells were incubated with a rabbit monoclonal anti-α-tubulin antibody (EP1332Y; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA) overnight at 4 ℃ and washed five times with PBS for 2 min over 5 times. The cells were further incubated with an Alexa 647-conjugated anti-rabbit secondary antibody (ab150083; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA) for 1 h at RT. F-actin was stained with Alexa Fluor 488-phalloidin (Invitrogen) for 1 h at RT. Nucleic acids were stained with the DNA-binding dye Hoechst 33258 (94403; Sigma-Aldrich). Stained cells were visualized using a confocal laser scanning microscope (LSM 800; Carl Zeiss, Jena, Germany).

A total of 10 μg of protein was loaded into each lane for SDS-PAGE, and protein was transferred to Bio-Rad Immun-Blot® PVDF membranes and blocked with 5% milk in Tris-buffered saline with 0.1% Tween-20 (TBST). Primary antibodies against pan-myosin heavy chain (mouse monoclonal A4.1025; EMD Millipore, 05-716) and α-tubulin (rabbit monoclonal EP1332Y; Abcam, ab52866) were diluted 1:1000 in 5% bovine serum albumin in TBST. Secondary antibodies coupled to Alexa Fluor 680 nm fluorophores against mouse IgG and rabbit IgG were diluted 1:10,000 in 5% bovine serum albumin in TBST. Band intensities were analyzed using the gel analysis tool in ImageJ [24 (link)].

Proteins were separated using a CriterionTM XT precast gel (4–12% Bis-Tris, (Biorad, Hercules, CA, USA)). After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane using the CriterionTM Blotter (Biorad, Hercules, CA, USA). Membranes were incubated with rabbit anti-CCP5 (1:1000, Ab118621, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), mouse anti-polyglutamate (B3, 1:2000, Sigma-Aldrich), mouse anti-glutamate (GT335, 1:4000, Adipogen, San Diego, CA, USA), rabbit anti-long-chain polyglutamate (polyE, 1:4,000, Adipogen), mouse anti-myc (1:1200, Clontech, Mountain View, CA, USA) or rabbit anti-α-tubulin (EP1332Y, 1:3000, Abcam) antibodies.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
