Overnight cultures were grown from single S. cerevisiae colonies in 3 ml of YEPD at 30°C in roller drums. The saturated cultures were diluted 100-fold into 3 ml of fresh YEPD medium and grown for 5 h at 30°C in roller drums. The cultures were quickly chilled in an ice-water bath and spun down in 1.5-ml tubes. The cell pellet was washed in 500 μl of water and incubated in 200 μl of 0.1 M NaOH for 5 min at room temperature. The pellet was resuspended in 50 μl of 1× Laemmli buffer, and western blots were performed using standard molecular biology procedures [76 ]. The anti-FLAG antibody (F1804, Sigma) and the anti-H3 antibody (ab1791, Abcam) were visualized using IRDye antibodies (926-68072 and 926-32211, Licor) on an Odyssey imager. The raw signal in each lane was quantified using ImageJ using the rectangle-select tool followed by the Analyze-Measure tool. For each lane, the FLAG signal was divided by the H3 signal and normalized to a maximum of 10 within each blot. Uncropped images of blots and their quantification are provided in https://github.com/rasilab/ribosome_collisions_yeast/tree/master/data/western. The normalization of lanes is done in https://github.com/rasilab/ribosome_collisions_yeast/blob/master/analysis/western/western_analysis.md.

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.
