Cells were lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) lysis buffer (MilliporeSigma) supplemented with protease inhibitor (MilliporeSigma). Protein concentrations were measured using the Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). An equal amount of protein per sample was balanced with RIPA lysis buffer, Laemmli sample buffer (Bio-Rad), and DTT. After boiling, the samples were run on an NuPAGE 3 to 8% Tris-Acetate gel (Invitrogen) and transferred to a polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) (0.45 μm) membrane. The membrane was blocked with 5% milk and then blotted with the primary and secondary antibodies. The primary antibodies used were RPA194 (C-1; Santa Cruz; catalog no.: sc-48385), Myc-tag clone 4A6 (Millipore; catalog no.: 05-724), PAF53 (ProteinTech; catalog no.: 16145-1-AP), and GAPDH (abcam; catalog no.: ab8245). Horseradish peroxidase–conjugated secondary antibodies were purchased from Dako. Secondary antibodies were detected using either SuperSignal West Pico PLUS Chemiluminescent Substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientific) or Western Lightning Plus-ECL Enhanced Chemiluminescence Substrate (PerkinElmer) and imaged using the Bio-Rad Molecular Imager ChemiDoc XRS+ System and Image Lab Software. Protein densitometry analysis was conducted on the Image Lab Software.

Huh7 cells were treated with 100 nM 10M-D42AN for 0 to 48 h and with EGF (Invitrogen) (0–100 ng/ml) for 0 to 3 h. To observe the phosphorylation levels of Ack1 and WASP, HepG2 cells were transfected with T7-Ack1-His-pcDNA using Lipofectamine 2000 and then cultured for 48 h. These cells were lysed with RIPA buffer containing a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail. Lysates were centrifuged at 4 °C and 13,200 rpm for 15 min, and the supernatant was removed. Protein concentrations were determined using a bicinchoninic acid protein assay kit (Thermo). Equivalent amounts of protein were separated in NuPAGE 4% to 12% Bis–Tris gel (Thermo) or NuPAGE 3% to 8% Tris-acetate gel (Thermo) followed by incubation with primary antibodies against Ack1, EGFR, phosphorylated-EGFR Y845, pN-WASP (Santa Cruz), pAck1, GAPDH (Abcam, CST), Chk1, pChk1, phosphorylated-EGFR Y1045, Y1068, N-WASP (CST), and γH2AX (Merck) and with HRP-conjugated antibodies against FLAG, T7 (Novagen), and GST (Santa Cruz). HRP-conjugated secondary antibody against rabbit or mouse (Abcam, CST) was then applied. The blots were developed using enhanced chemiluminescence reagents (Nacalai Tesque, Cytiva).

TA muscles were homogenized in modified RIPA buffer (50 mM Tris [pH 8], 150 mM NaCl, 1% IGEPAL CA-630, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, 10% SDS, and 1× cOmplete protease inhibitor cocktail [Merck, Feltham, UK]) using a Precellys 24 tissue homogenizer (Bertin Instruments, Montigny-le-Bretonneux, France) (four cycles at 5,000 rpm for 30 s). Twenty micrograms of protein was mixed with NuPAGE sample reducing agent and NuPAGE LDS sample buffer and run on a NuPAGE 3% to 8% Tris-acetate gel (all Thermo Fisher Scientific, Abingdon, UK). Protein was electrotransferred onto a 0.45 μm polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane for 1 h at 30 V, followed by 1 h at 100 V, and blocked with Odyssey blocking buffer (LI-COR Biosciences, Cambridge, UK) for 1 h at room temperature. Membranes were incubated with primary antibodies (Table S3) overnight in Odyssey blocking buffer supplemented with 0.1% Tween 20 at 4°C. Membranes were washed three times with PBST and then incubated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibodies (Table S3) in Odyssey blocking buffer supplemented with 0.1% Tween 20 at room temperature for 1 h. Chemiluminescent signal was detected using Clarity Western ECL substrate (Bio-Rad, Watford, UK).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Two OD600 (optical density at 600 nm) units of yeast cells expressing WT 1a or 1a viroporin mutants were spheroplasted and then treated with 1 M sorbitol containing 10 mM N-ethylmaleimide (MilliporeSigma) for 10 min at room temperature. Spheroplasts were then lysed in 1 ml of 10% trichloroacetic acid (TCA), and total protein was collected by centrifugation for 5 min at 4°C at 15,000g. Protein pellets were washed with acetone twice. Dried pellets were suspended in 200 μl of 2× SDS loading buffer (Bio-Rad) containing 10 mM N-ethylmaleimide and vortexed for 10 min at 40°C. SDS-PAGE samples were divided into two, treated with or without DTT (final 100 mM), and vortexed for 10 min at 40°C. SDS-PAGE was performed using NuPAGE 3 to 8% tris-acetate gels (Thermo Fisher Scientific). After SDS-PAGE, the gels were soaked in a DTT-containing, alkaline transfer buffer (25 mM tris base, 190 mM glycine, 10 mM DTT) for 10 min at room temperature to break disulfide bonds of proteins and facilitate protein transfer to polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes.

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.
