Protein lysates were prepared as previously described [11 ]. Briefly, 50 mg of the liver was homogenized in 1 mL of cell lysis buffer, 1X proteinase inhibitor, and 1X PMSF. Samples were sonicated on power 4, thrice for 5 s each, and then, spun at 13,200 RPMs for 15 min at 4 °C. Protein concentrations were determined using a BCA reagent (23,227; Pierce™). Protein lysates were resolved in 3–8% Tris-Acetate Novex gel (Invitrogen) for NCOR1, SMRT/NCOR2, and beta-actin or 10% Bis-Tris gel (Invitrogen) for hdac3 and hsp90, and then, transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane. Blots were probed for NCOR1 using rabbit polyclonal anti-NCOR1 antibody (PHQQ; generated against a C-terminal NCoR peptide as previously described; diluted at 1:250), rabbit polyclonal anti-SMRTe (06–891; Millipore Sigma; diluted at 1:500), or rabbit polyclonal anti-HDAC3 (ab7030; abcam; diluted at 1:2000) overnight at 4 °C with mouse monoclonal anti-beta-actin antibody (MA191399; Fisher Scientific; diluted at 1:10,000) for NCOR1 and SMRT/NCOR2 control or mouse monoclonal anti-hsp90a/b antibody (sc-13119, Santa Cruz Biotechnology; 1:5,000). Goat anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor Plus 680 (A32734; Invitrogen) and goat anti-mouse Alexa Fluor Plus 488 (A32723; Invitrogen) were used as secondary antibodies and incubated at room temperature for 90 min.

BsAb samples were subjected to non-reducing sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) to determine whether the disulfide bonds between HC and LC were correctly formed. Each 1 μg sample was mixed with SDS Sample Buffer Solution (2ME-) (× 4) (Wako) and heated at 95 °C for 2 min, and then loaded onto a Mini-PROTEAN TGX gel (4–20%, 15 well) (Bio-Rad) alongside a molecular weight marker (Precision Plus Protein™ All Blue Prestained Protein Standards, Bio-Rad). Electrophoresis was performed using a Power PAC 3000 (Bio-Rad) at a constant voltage of 200 V for 35 min. The gel was then removed from the cassette and stained with Quick-CBB (Wako), followed by destaining in Milli-Q water. The stained gel was imaged using a ChemiDoc Touch MP (BIO-Rad).

The membranes were then probed with the following primary antibodies: rat monoclonal anti-AMIGO2 antibody (1:10,000; rTNK1b012a)33 , mouse monoclonal anti-β-actin antibody (1:5,000; A5441; Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), mouse monoclonal anti-CD9 antibody (1:2,500; 12A12; Cosmo Bio, Tokyo, Japan), or mouse monoclonal anti-CD63 antibody (1:5,000; 8A12; Cosmo Bio) overnight at 4 °C. The membranes were then incubated with a goat polyclonal anti-rat IgG horseradish peroxidase-conjugated antibody (1:10,000; ab98425; Abcam, Cambridge, United Kingdom) or a goat polyclonal anti-mouse IgG antibody (1:5,000; PM009-7; MBL, Nagoya, Japan) at RT for 20 min. Protein signals were detected using an enhanced chemiluminescence kit (RPN2232; GE Healthcare; Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom) and analyzed using ChemiDoc Touch MP (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA).

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.
