Blotto a

Manufactured by Santa Cruz Biotechnology

Blotto A is a laboratory buffer solution used in western blotting and other immunodetection techniques. It serves as a blocking agent to prevent non-specific binding of antibodies to the membrane, improving the specificity of the target protein detection.

Whole proteins were extracted in RIPA buffer (Cell Signaling) and quantified by the Bradford protein assay (Biorad). Samples were separated by 12% SDS–PAGE and transferred to Hybond ECL nitrocellulose membranes (GE Healthcare). The membranes were blocked with Blotto A (Santa Cruz) at room temperature for 1 h, and incubated with the appropriate primary antibodies for 2 h at room temperature, as previously described (Vergara et al., 2016 (link)). After two washes with a solution of TBS containing 0.1% (v/v) tween 20 for 10 min, the membranes were incubated with secondary antibody HRP-conjugated for 2 h at room temperature (standard dilution 1:2,000). Blots were then developed using the Amersham ECL western blotting detection system (GE Healthcare). Densitometric quantitation of at least three independent replicates was done using ImageJ software.

Whole proteins were extracted with RIPA buffer (Cell Signaling) and quantified by the Bradford protein assay (Bio-Rad). Samples were separated by 10% SDS-PAGE and transferred to the Hybond ECL nitrocellulose membrane. The membranes were blocked overnight in Blotto A (Santa Cruz) at 4°C and subsequently probed by the appropriately diluted primary antibodies for 2 h at room temperature. Protein bands were visualized by incubating with a horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody (Amersham, ECL Western blotting detection reagents).

Whole proteins were extracted in RIPA buffer (Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA) and quantified by the Bradford protein assay (BIORAD, Hercules, CA). Samples were separated by 12% SDS-PAGE and transferred to Hybond ECL nitrocellulose membranes (GE Healthcare, Little Chalfont, UK). The membranes were blocked with Blotto A (Santa Cruz, Dallas, Texas) at room temperature for 1 h, and incubated with the appropriate primary antibodies (see Supplementary Table 1) for 2 h at room temperature, as previously performed. 20 After two washes with a solution of TBS containing 0.1% (v/v) tween 20 for 10 min, the membranes were incubated with secondary antibody HRPconjugated for 2 h at room temperature (standard dilution 1:2000). Blots were then developed using the Amersham ECL western blotting detection system (GE Healthcare, Little Chalfont, UK).
Densitometric quantitation of at least three indipendent replicates was done using ImageJ software.

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.
