To fractionate proteins into cytoplasmic, nuclear, and chromatin-bound fractions, cells were grown in 6-cm dishes, scraped with PBS, and centrifuged (1000 rpm for 2 min). Input sample was lysed in SNTBS. For fractionation purposes, a separate sample of cells was lysed with buffer containing 10 mm HEPES, 10 mm KCl, 1.5 mm MgCl2, 10% glycerol, 340 mm saccharose, 1 mm DTT, protease inhibitor mixture tablet (Roche Applied Science), 0.1% Triton for 8 min on ice. After centrifugation (13,700 rpm for 5 min), the supernatant was taken as the cytosolic fraction. To obtain the nuclear fraction, the pellet from the previous centrifugation step was lysed in buffer containing 3 mm EDTA, 200 μm EGTA, 1 mm DTT, protease inhibitor mixture tablet (Roche Applied Science). After centrifugation (4000 rpm for 4 min), the supernatant was taken as the nuclear fraction, and the pellet was lysed in SNTBS buffer containing additional 3 mm EDTA, 200 μm EGTA, 1 mm DTT, protease inhibitor mixture tablet (Roche Applied Science), and taken as the chromatin-bound fraction. Equal amounts of protein from each fraction, including the input lysate, were subsequently separated by SDS-PAGE and analyzed by Western blotting.

HepG2 cells were lysed in lysis buffer [100 mM NaCl, 0.5 mM MgCl2, 0.15 mM CaCl2, 1% (v/v) Nonidet P-40, 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0] containing protease inhibitor mixture tablets (Roche). Cell lysate was centrifuged at 12,000 × g for 10 min at 4 °C to removed debris and precleared with magnetic beads conjugated with streptavidin (Dynabeads® M-280 Streptavidin, Invitrogen). Subsequently, the precleared supernatant was incubated with C-terminal biotinylated peptides for 1 h with gentle shaking at 4 °C. A new batch of streptavidin beads were added and incubated for another 2 h. The beads were washed five times with the lysis buffer and the bound proteins were resolved on a 13.5% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel and detected by anti-Bcl-xL antibody (Cell Signaling Technology).
Similarly, HepG2 cells transfected with pTT22m-HBx-WT or pTT22m-HBx-(W120A/L123A) plasmid were lysed. Co-IP experiments were performed using an anti-HBx antibody (16F9) and Dynabeads Protein G for Immunoprecipitation (Thermo Fisher Scientific, catalog no. 10004D).

For western blotting of E-cadherin, EOC cells were plated in 10-cm dishes. On the following day, the cells were grown to 70–80% subconfluency and treated with lysis buffer containing 1% Triton X-100 in PBS and protease inhibitor mixture tablets (Roche, Barcelona, Spain). For the TGF-β1-treated cells, total cell lysates were isolated in the same way after a 96-h incubation with TGF-β1.
Samples were electrophoresed on a 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gel and transferred electrophoretically to Immobilon membranes (Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA). After blocking in blocking solution (5% nonfat dry milk/0.1% Tween-20/PBS), the membranes were incubated overnight with a recommended dilution of primary antibodies. We used the following antibodies: anti-E-cadherin (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA) and anti-β-actin (Sigma-Aldrich). The primary antibodies were washed in 0.05% Tween-20/PBS and then incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody. Immunoreactive proteins were stained using a chemiluminescence detection system (ECL; Amersham, Arlington Heights, Il, USA). An Ab against β-actin (AC-15; Sigma-Aldrich) was used to standardize the protein loading.

N-terminal biotinylated peptides encode the intracellular domain of human ICAM-1 or VCAM-1 were synthesized using Fmoc-solid-phase chemistry (Netherlands Cancer Institute Amsterdam). To analyze binding to these peptides, a TNFα-stimulated HUVEC monolayer in a 10-cm-dish was washed with PBS containing 1 mM CaCl2 and 0.5 mM MgCl2 and lysed for 10 min on ice in NP40-buffer (25 mM Tris, 100 mM NaCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 10% glycerol, 1% NP40, pH 7.4), supplemented with a phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (Sigma) and protease inhibitor mixture tablets (Roche). After cell lysis and centrifugation (10,000 g, 10 min, 4°C), supernatant was incubated with Streptavidin agarose beads (Sigma) and 5 μg biotinylated peptide for 3 h at 4°C under continuous mixing (16 (link)). Empty beads were used as control. Beads were washed five times with NP40-buffer, resuspended in SDS-sample-buffer. Proteins were detected using western blotting. To analyze the binding of the CD2AP constructs to the cytoplasmic ICAM-1 domain, Hela cells were transfected with CD2AP-GFP, N-CD2AP-GFP, C-CD2AP-GFP or GFP and pull-down studies with the N-terminal biotinylated peptide encode the intracellular domain of human ICAM-1 were performed as described above.

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.
