Gsk3β antibody

Manufactured by Santa Cruz Biotechnology
Sourced in United States

The GSK3β antibody is a laboratory research tool used to detect and measure the expression of the GSK3β protein in biological samples. GSK3β is a serine/threonine protein kinase that plays a crucial role in various cellular processes, including metabolism, cell differentiation, and cell survival. The antibody can be used in techniques such as Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunocytochemistry to study the expression and localization of GSK3β in different experimental models.

Western blot analysis was performed, according to the previous method (Cho et al., 2018 (link); Wu et al., 2015 (link)). The right hemisphere was homogenized on ice, and lysed in a lysis buffer containing 50 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, 1% Triton X-100, 1 mM PMSF, 1 mM EGTA, 1.5 mM MgCl2·6H2O, 1 mM sodium orthovanadate, and 100 mM sodium fluoride. Protein content was measured using a Bio-Rad colorimetric protein assay kit (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA). Protein samples (30 μg) were separated on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel and transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Mouse GSK3β antibody, mouse phosphorylated GSK3β (p-GSK3β) antibody, mouse β-catenin antibody, and mouse phosphorylated β-catenin (p-β-catenin) antibody (1:1,000; Santa Cruz Biotechnology) were used as the primary antibodies. Horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-mouse antibody (1:2,000; Vector Laboratories) for GSK3β, p-GSK3β, β-catenin, and p-β-catenin were used as secondary antibodies. Using a cold pack and prechilled buffer, membrane transfer was conducted at 4°C. Enhanced chemiluminescence detection kit (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) was used for band detection.

Total proteins were extracted from corresponding cells with the radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL, USA) in the presence of Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (Thermo Scientific). Equivalent amounts of protein were resolved and mixed with 5×Lane Marker Reducing Sample Buffer (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL, USA), electrophoresed in a 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate-acrylamide gel, and transferred onto Immobilon-P Transfer Membrane (Merck Millipore, Schwalbach, Germany). The signal was detected with an enhanced chemiluminescence detection system (Merck Millipore). The GSK3β antibody was obtained from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (Dallas, Texas, USA), and β-actin antibody was obtained from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, MA, USA). Horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibody was also purchased from 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.
