All fixation and permeabilization steps were performed at 37°C. Cells were permeabilized and fixed in 3% paraformaldehyde (Electron Microscopy Sciences), 0.5% Triton X-100 (Sigma), with 10 μg/ml nonfluorescent phalloidin (Invitrogen) in cytoskeletal buffer (CBS; 10 mM MES, 138 mM KCl, 2 mM EGTA, 3 mM MgCl2 plus 5% sucrose) for 90 seconds, post-fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde in CBS for 15 minutes. Cells were rinsed 3X in PBS++ and permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 in CBS for 5 minutes. Cells were rinsed 5X over 40 minutes with PHEM+glycine (60 mM PIPES, 2 mM HEPES, 10 mM EGTA, 2 mM MgCl2, 100 mM glycine, pH 6.9). Non-specific sites were blocked with 20% donkey serum (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories), together with M.O.M. reagent (Vector Laboratories), in PHEM+glycine buffer for 1 hour. Cells were rinsed 3X with PHEM+glycine over 30 minutes. Primary and secondary antibodies were diluted in PHEM+glycine with 10% donkey serum and incubated for 45 and 25 minutes, respectively. Secondary antibodies were either from Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories or Molecular Probes.

Cells were rinsed 3X with PHEM+glycine over 30 min. For MDA-MB-231 cells, the combined fixation and permeabilization first step was skipped. Primary and secondary antibodies were diluted in PHEM+glycine with 10% donkey serum and incubated for 45 and 25 min, respectively. Secondary antibodies were from Jackson Immuno Research Laboratories.

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.
