Kif11

Manufactured by Abcam
Sourced in United Kingdom, United States

KIF11 is a kinesin-like motor protein that plays a critical role in cell division. It is involved in the formation and maintenance of the bipolar mitotic spindle, which is essential for proper chromosome segregation during cell division. KIF11 is responsible for the outward movement of spindle poles, which is necessary for spindle elongation and chromosome separation.

Western Blot Analysis of Transfected Cells

The transfected cells were cultured for 48 h and then collected for Western blot assay. The cells were lysed with radioimmunoprecipitation assay lysis buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific) at 4°C for 10 min. Then, protein concentration was quantified by the BCA Protein Analysis Kit (Beyotime, China). SDS-PAGE was utilized to electrophorese equal amounts of protein samples. Then, proteins were transferred to a PVDF membrane. At room temperature, the membrane was sealed for 1 h with 5% skimmed milk diluted with TBST. Then, primary antibody KIF11 (Abcam) or GAPDH (Abcam) was added, and the membrane was incubated overnight at 4°C. The membrane was fully rinsed with TBST, followed by hybridizing with goat anti-rabbit IgG antibody conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (Abcam, Cambridge, UK) for 2 h. After that, TBST was utilized to rinse the membrane three times. Finally, luminescence was carried out with an enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) kit (Solarbio, China). All protein bands were observed by photo taking.

Western Blot Analysis of Proteins

All proteins from cells or tumors were resolved by SDS-PAGE gel (P1200, Solarbio, Beijing, China) and transferred onto PVDF membranes (LC2002, Thermo, Waltham, US). Then, the membranes were blocked in 5% fat-free milk in TBST for 1 hour at room temperature and then washed, and primary antibodies were incubated at 4°C overnight. After being washed, the PVDF was incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies. The bands were visualized by ECL reagent (32106, Thermo). Antibodies are as follows: KIF11 (1 : 1000 dilution, ab61199, Abcam, Cambridge, UK); anti-β-actin (1 : 1000 dilution, ab5694, Abcam, Cambridge, UK).

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.
