The protein samples (20 ug/well) were treated with 300 mM DTT at 95°C for 10 min and electrophoresed on a 12% Bis-Tris NuPAGE precast gel (1 mm) using the NuPAGE 12% Bis-Tris Electrophoresis System (Invitrogen, UK) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Proteins were fixed by incubating in 50% (v/v) methanol for one hour with agitation. After two washes with deionised water for 20 min each, the gel was incubated with oxidizing agent (1% (w/v) periodic acid in 3% (v/v) acetic acid) for 2 hours with shaking, washed with deionised water two times for 20 min each, and incubated with Schiff’s reagent (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) for two hours. After removing Schiff’s reagent, the gel was incubated with reducing agent (2.5% (w/v) sodium metabisulphite in 10 mM hydrochloric acid) overnight, washed three times with deionised water to stop the reaction. An identical NuPAGE gel with samples were stained with Coomassie Brilliant Blue R-250 dye solution (0.125% (w/v) of Coomassie Brilliant Blue R250 (Sigma, USA) in 40% (v/v) methanol and 10% (v/v) acetic acid) and destained until the background is clear. Both PAS- and Coomassie-stained gels were imaged on Gel Doc XR+ System (Bio-Rad, USA).

In vitro phosphorylation assays were performed as previously described 18 (link), 20 . In brief, bacterially expressed Cin8 (590)-TEV-EGFP-6His variants were purified using standard nickel affinity chromatography, eluted with 300mM imidazole that was subsequently removed using Zeba Spin Desalting Columns 40K (Thermo Scientific).

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.
