For immunofluorescence staining, we used the following antibodies: mouse anti‐p34‐Arc (Dubois
et al,
2005) (undiluted), mouse anti‐tubulin (Sigma T9026), rabbit anti‐pericentrin (ab4448), phalloidin‐FITC (P5282) and
Alexa‐647 phalloidin (Fluka 65906). For inhibition experiments on isolated centrosomes, we used rabbit anti‐WASH antibodies (Derivery
et al,
2009) (2 μg/ml) (gift Alexis).
For Western blot analysis, we used rabbit anti‐WASH1 (1: 1,000,
ab157592, Abcam), rabbit anti‐WASH (1:1,000; Atlas), strumpellin (1: 1,000,
ab101222, Abcam) and anti‐beta‐tubulin (
sc‐5274, Santa Cruz). Labelled anti‐mouse and anti‐rabbit secondary antibodies (1: 1,000) and HRP‐conjugated goat IgG anti‐mouse and anti‐rabbit (1: 10,000) for Western blot were obtained from Jackson ImmunoResearch.
Cytochalasin D and
nocodazole were purchased from Sigma‐Aldrich. PFA was purchased from Delta Microscopies.
CK666 was purchased from Sigma‐Aldrich. Alexa‐647‐phalloidin was purchased from Life Technologies.
