GAPDH is an enzyme that catalyzes the sixth step of glycolysis, the metabolic pathway that converts glucose into energy. It is responsible for the conversion of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate. GAPDH is commonly used as a control or reference gene in molecular biology experiments.

Western Blotting of PPAR Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Western blotting was performed as previously described [40 (link)]. Briefly, C2C12 cells were lysed in a modified RIPA buffer supplemented with protease inhibitors (Pierce). Approximately 20 μg of protein from the cell homogenate preparations was separated on a 4–12% gradient gel (GenScript) via SDS-PAGE. Proteins were transferred onto Immobilon-P polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes and blocked with 5% BSA in Tween-TBS for 1 hour. The membranes were then incubated (4°C) in 5% BSA in Tween-TBS with antibodies (1 : 1000) against PPARα, PPARδ, or GAPDH (Sigma). Following overnight incubation, the membranes were then probed with a secondary antibody (GenScript, 1 : 2000; or Thermo, 1 : 10,000). Blots were then washed and subjected to enhanced chemiluminescence (Pierce). Membranes were stripped in 0.5 M NaOH and probed for total proteins and subsequently GAPDH (Sigma) was used as a loading control.

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.
