Cells were resuspended in lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4, 130 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1% Triton X-100) containing protease inhibitors (Complete, Roche Applied Science, Indianapolis) and protein concentration was measured using the Bradford assay (#5000006, BioRad, Hercules, CA, USA). Protein samples (30 μg/lane) were subjected to SDS-PAGE and then transferred to PVDF membranes (Immobilon-PSQ PVDF Membrane, Merck Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany). After blocking, membranes were incubated with primary antibodies against the following proteins: α-tubulin (1:5000, T6199, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), acetylated α-tubulin (1:1000, T7451-25UL, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), and β-actin (1:10,000, A5441, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). β-actin was used as the loading control. Goat Anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) DryLightTM 680 Conjugated (1:10,000, 35518, Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) was used as the secondary antibody. Immunoblots were incubated for 1 h at room temperature and developed using Odyssey infrared imaging system (LI-COR Biosciences, Lincoln, NE, USA).

Protein samples were extracted from cells and mitochondria, respectively, using RIPA lysis buffer (Chromotek) supplemented with protease inhibitors. Protein samples were diluted in LDS sample buffer (4×, Invitrogen) supplemented with sample reducing agent (10×, Invitrogen). Samples were heated at 95̊C for 5 min before loading on a 4–12% gradient Bis-Tris gel (Invitrogen). MOPS SDS running buffer (Invitrogen) was used and supplied with antioxidants (Invitrogen). The gel was soaked in running buffer and run at 160 V for 75 min. The gel was transferred to a 0.45 µm nitrocellulose membrane (Cytiva) and protein at 30 V for 150 min, 4̊C. The membrane was blocked for 1 h in 5% skimmed milk (Sigma) in PBS-Tween 20 (0.1%, Sigma). The membrane was probed for anti-GFP (ab183734, abcam), anti-mCherry (1C51, ab125096, abcam), anti-VDAC1 (ab15895, abcam) and anti-α tubulin (DM1α, T6199, Sigma), diluted 1 : 10 000, 1 : 3000, 1 : 1500, 1 : 1500, respectively, in 5% milk (PBS-Tween).

Gel electrophoresis and Western blotting were as described (e.g., Peng et al. 2011 (link)) using rabbit polyclonal anti-phospho-Ser845-GluA1 (1:1,500; AB5849, Millipore, Temecula, CA), mouse monoclonal anti-GluA1 (1:1,500; MAB2263, Millipore), rabbit polyclonal anti-GluA2 (1:1,000; PA1-4659, Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL), rabbit polyclonal anti-PSD95 (1:1,000; AB9708, Millipore), mouse monoclonal anti-GluA3 (1:500; MAB5416, Millipore), and mouse monoclonal anti-α-tubulin (1:5,000; T6199, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO). Immunoblots were analyzed using NIH Image J software. Following densitometry, intensities of bands corresponding to GluA1, GluA2, GluA3, and p-Ser845-GluA1 for each sample were divided by intensities of the corresponding α-tubulin bands. Results were expressed in comparison to the normalized control, defined as the AL group that received the control treatment. Results were analyzed by two-way ANOVA, with significant interaction effects followed by comparison of cell means of interest using the error term from the ANOVA in the denominator of a t-statistic.

First, ~750 synchronized late L4 to young adult stage animals were plated on NGM plates seeded with EHEC strain EDL933 or control plates seeded with E. coli OP50 for 4 days at 20 °C. Polyclonal antibody to GFP (Abcam, ab6556), monoclonal antibody to SUN-1 (phospho-S43) (University of Vienna, Austria), and monoclonal antibody to α-tubulin (Sigma-Aldrich, T6199) were used for detection, Caco-2. In brief, 3 × 105 cells were seeded to a 10-cm cell culture dish. When monolayer cells became 70–80% confluent 4–6 days after the inoculum, they were infected by EHEC strain EDL933 at MOI (500:1) for 0.5 h. Monoclonal antibody to GAPDH (Abcam, ab181602), polyclonal antibody to histone H3 (phospho-S10) (Abcam, ab47297), monoclonal antibody to DIAPH1 (Cell Signaling, 14634), polyclonal antibody to DIAPH2 (Cell Signaling, 5474), polyclonal antibody to DIAPH3 (Sigma-Aldrich, SAB1409850), and monoclonal antibody to polyclonal phospho-PP1α (Thr320) (Cell Signaling, 2581) were used for detection.

For production of polyclonal antibodies, glutathione S-transferase (GST)-fusion proteins containing the specific antigenic regions of seven candidate proteins were expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 and affinity purified with glutathione Sepharose 4B (GE Healthcare). The recombinant proteins were used as antigens for producing rabbit polyclonal antisera. The antibodies were affinity purified using the appropriate proteins and an AminoLink immobilization kit (Pierce). The following commercially available antibodies were also used: a mouse monoclonal antibody against ADAM2 (1/1000, MAB19292) from Millipore; an antibody against α-tubulin (1/1000, T6199) from Sigma-Aldrich; and an antibody against GAPDH (1/1000, MCA4739) from Bio-Rad. As secondary antibodies for Western blot analysis, we used horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated anti-rabbit or anti-mouse IgG (Jackson ImmunoResearch).

Cells were plated at 300,000 cells per well in 6-well plates and grown to confluence. Media was then removed, cells were washed twice with PBS, and 200 μL of RIPA lysis buffer containing sigma protease inhibitor cocktail (P8340, 1:100) was added to each well. Cells were incubated in lysis buffer for 10 min at RT then scrapped and collected. Lysates were analyzed by BCA and normalized for total protein content with lysis buffer then denatured in Laemmli loading buffer with 0.01 M DTT at 100 °C for 10 min. 10 μg of protein from each sample was then loaded onto Biorad Mini-PROTEAN® TGX 4–15% gels and run @ 150V for 55 min then transferred to Immobilon PVDF membrane at 35 V for 1 h. The membrane was blocked with 5% non-fat milk in TBS-T for 1 h at rt then incubated with the indicated antibodies in 2.5% non-fat milk overnight at 4 °C.

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.
