HeLa cells were obtained from ATCC and maintained in DMEM with 10% FBS. Anti-GST antibody was from Santa Cruz (Santa Cruz, CA), anti-HA, anti-FLAG (M2) and anti-β-actin from Sigma-Aldrich (St Louis, MO), anti-GFP/YFP (Ab290) from Abcam (Cambridge, MA), anti-PKD3 and anti-SSH1L from Bethyl Laboratories (Montgomery, TX), anti-pS744/748-PKD (recognizes pS706/710 for human PKD2 and pS731/735 for human PKD3), anti-LIMK, anti-pT508-LIMK, anti-PAK4, anti-pS474-PAK4, anti-Cofilin and anti-pS3-Cofilin from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, MA), anti-PKD2 from Millipore (Billerica, MA). The monoclonal antibodies directed against PKD1 and pS978-SSH1L were described and characterized previously [20] (link). Secondary HRP-linked antibodies were from Millipore. Secondary antibodies for immunofluorescence analysis were goat-anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 488 F(ab’)2 and goat-anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 488 F(ab’)2 from Invitrogen (Carlsbad, CA). TransIT HeLa-Monster (Mirus, Madison, WI) was used for transient transfection of cells.
