Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Phosphate-affinity SDS-PAGE was performed by using Phos-tag SDS-PAGE as described previously (59 (link)). Briefly, cell lysates were prepared using cell lysis buffer without inhibitors (Beyotime). The proteins were separated using Phos-tag SDS-PAGE that was performed with 7% polyacrylamide gels containing 50 μM Phos-tag AAL-107 (Wako) and 100 μM MnCl2 under constant-current conditions (25 mA/gel). The gels were equilibrated with transfer buffer supplemented with 10 mM EDTA via three 10-min washes with shaking and then equilibrated with transfer buffer lacking EDTA via an additional 10-min wash before being subjected to a standard Western blotting procedure.

Proteins from tobacco cells were quantified using the Bradford method (Bradford, 1976 (link)) after disruption in lysis buffer, which consisted of 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 50 mM EDTA, 2 mM dithiothreitol (DTT), 100 mM NaCl, and protease inhibitor cocktail (PIC) without EDTA (Roche), either supplemented or not with 10 mM N-Ethylmaleimide (NEM). Protein samples (20 μg) were resolved by 10–15% SDS-PAGE or 6% native-PAGE and visualized by immunoblotting with antibodies against CDC48 (Abcam), cAPX (Agrisera), or His-tag (Cell Signaling Technology). The immunoblots were examined using LumiGLO® (Cell Signaling Technology). After transfer, membranes were stained with Ponceau Red in order to check the loading of total proteins. For gel retardation assays, 12% gels were supplemented with 50 µM Phos-tag™ AAL-107 (Wako Pure Chemical Co.) and 100 µM MnCl2 and then rinsed in 1 mM EDTA for Mn2+ chelation.

All steps were performed at 4°C or on ice. Brains of wild type adult mice were dissected for the collection of brain regions. The samples were treated with homogenization buffer (0.32 M sucrose, 4 mM HEPES pH 7.4). Cultures expressing the different VGLUT1 mutants were collected on DIV 17 with 1 × PBS. Both buffers were supplemented with protease inhibitor cocktail (539134, Millipore) and Halt phosphatase Inhibitor Cocktail (78420, Thermo Fisher Scientific). When necessary, protein samples were treated with alkaline phosphatase prior to the biochemical analysis. FastAP Thermosensitive Alkaline Phosphatase (one unit/µl) and FastAP 10 × buffer (EF0654, Thermo Scientific) were added to samples and incubated for 1 hr at 37°C. Sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and phosphate affinity SDS-PAGE (Kinoshita et al., 2006 (link)) were conducted according to standard methods. For phosphate affinity SDS-PAGE (Mn2+-Phos-tag SDS-PAGE), 25 µM Phostag (AAL-107, Wako) and 0.1 mM MnCl2 were added to the resolving gel before polymerization. Western blotting was performed according to standard procedures using HRP-coupled secondary antibodies for qualitative detection. Chemi-luminescence signals were visualized with ChemiDoc MP System (Bio-Rad) using SuperSignal West Dura Extended Duration Substrate (34075, Thermo Scientific).

Phos-tag™ is a phosphate-binding reagent that is used for the separation, purification and detection of phosphorylated proteins (Kinoshita et al., 2006 (link)). We used this product (Phos-tag AAL-107, Wako Pure Chemical Industries) to detect phosphorylated proteins in SDS-PAGE gels. The samples were loaded into the wells of 8% SDS-PAGE with Mn2+-Phos-tag™ in a resolving gel. After electrophoresis, the gel was soaked in transfer buffer with 1 mM EDTA for 10 min and then in transfer buffer without EDTA for another 10 min before transfer onto a PVDF membrane using a wet-tank method followed by western blotting.

S2 cells were lysed in CIP buffer (100 mM NaCl, 50 mM Tris- HCl pH 7.9, 10 mM MgCl, 1 mM DTT), 1 mM PMSF, 0.1% NP40, protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche), and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (Calbiochem). For CIP treatment phosphatase inhibitor cocktail was omitted, and lysate was incubated at 37 °C, for 60 min in 2 units CIP (NEB) per 50 μL reaction containing 50μg of total protein. For λ-phosphatase (NEB) treatment, lysates were incubated with 1 unit of phosphatase for 30 min at 30 °C in λ−phosphatase buffer. Lysates were cleared by centrifugation and subjected to SDS-PAGE. To detect phosphorylated Pumilio in SDS-PAGE, we used Phos-tag AAL-107 (Wako Chemicals GmbH) according to the manufacturer’s instruction72 (link),73 (link). Western blotting was performed using mouse anti-V5 (1:5000, Invitrogen), followed by the corresponding Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) conjugated secondary antibodies (1:5000, GE Healthcare) and visualized using the ECL Plus Western Blotting detection system (GE Healthcare).

For total protein extraction, Arabidopsis seedlings were grounded in the presence of liquid nitrogen to fine powder, and total protein was extracted with 2 × SDS sample buffer (100 mM Tris-Cl, pH6.8, 4% SDS, 0.2% bromophenol blue, 20% glycerol, and freshly added 10% β-mercaptoethanol). Aliquots of denatured total protein were separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred to a PVDF membrane. For the detection of phosphorylated CBL proteins, total protein was separated by 10% SDS-PAGE with 15 μM Phos-tag (AAL-107, WAKO pure chemical industries, Ltd) and transferred to PVDF membrane. For immunoblot analyses, anti-CBL3 (19 (link), 66 (link)), anti-GAPDH (PHYTOAB, PHY0303A), anti-actin (PHYTOAB, PHY0001), anti-Flag (Sigma-Aldrich, A8592-2MG), anti-S6K1-p (phosphor T449) (Abcam, ab207399), anti-HA (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, sc-7392HRP) were used as primary antibodies.

Purified proteins were separated using Phos-tag gel technology (Wako, Phos-tag AAL-107). Samples were either expressed alone in BL21 cells and purified, treated with λPP protein after purification at 30°C for 1 hr (New England BioLabs, P0753L) or co-expressed in BL21 cells with RFP-lambda phosphatase. Purified protein samples were incubated in the presence or absence of ATP in kinase assay protein buffer (50 mM Tris, pH 8.5, 50 mM K acetate, 2 mM Mg acetate, 1 mM EGTA, 10% glycerol) with 1 mM DTT and 1 mM PMSF for 30 or 60 min at room temperature. Phos-tag SDS-PAGE was performed with pre-cast 7.5% polyacrylamide gels containing 50 μM Phos-tag acrylamide with MnCl2 (Wako, 192–18001). Electrophoresis was completed at 180 v for 90 min and the gel was stained with Coomassie blue. The stained gel was imaged using a GelDoc (BioRad) and the band intensity was quantified using ImageJ to draw a box over both the highest band and the lowest band in each lane. The measure of percent of protein that was phosphorylated was generated by dividing the intensity value of the highest band by the total intensity from the sum of the highest and lowest bands.

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.
