Protein lysates were prepared in the same manner as described above. Between 50 and 100 μg total protein were separated on NuPAGE Novex 4–12% bis-Tris gels (Invitrogen) and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (Bio-Rad, 162-0115, Hercules, CA, USA) for probing using the iBlot system (Invitrogen). Membranes were incubated in TBS blocking buffer (25 mM Tris–HCl pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 0.05% Tween-20) with 5% w/v skim milk powder for 2 h at room temperature before incubation with primary antibodies (anti-FLAG (Clone M2, Sigma); anti-HA (Sigma); anti-Myc (Sigma); anti-VSVG (Clone 16B12, Sigma); anti-GroEL2, and anti-Ag85) diluted in TBS with 1% BSA overnight. All antibodies were used at a dilution of 1:1,000 except anti-GroEL2 (1:50,00) and anti-Ag85 (1:3,000). Membranes were washed five times in TBS (15 min each at room temperature) before incubating with appropriate secondary antibody for 1 h at room temperature. Membranes were developed using the colorimetric horseradish peroxidase substrate 4-chloro-1-naphthol (4CN) (Opit-4CN Kit by Bio-rad). Antibodies against GroEL2 and Ag85 were generous gifts from Dr J.M. Chen as part of the National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, contract HHSN266200400091c entitled ‘Tuberculosis Vaccine Testing and Research Materials,' awarded to Colorado State University).

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.
