Tris tricine gel

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

Tris-Tricine gels are a type of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) system used for the separation and analysis of proteins, particularly low-molecular-weight proteins. These gels utilize a Tris-Tricine buffer system, which provides improved resolution and separation of proteins compared to traditional Tris-glycine gels. Tris-Tricine gels are commonly used in applications such as protein profiling, molecular weight determination, and analysis of protein expression patterns.

For amyloid plaques and ApoE western blots, equal volumes of FA extracted sample were subjected to 10–20% Tris-tricine gels (1mm, Novex) and 10% Tris-glycine gels, respectively, under denaturing conditions. After separation, proteins were transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes (Protran BA85; GE Healthcare), boiled in PBS for five min and blocked in I-Block solution (0.2% Tropix I-Block (Applied Biosystems), 0.1% Tween-20 in PBS) for one hour at room temperature with agitation. To detect different brain cell types from microglia enriched and depleted lysates, 1μg of total protein was loaded on 12% Tris-glycine gels and run under denaturing conditions. Proteins were subsequently transferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes (PVDF Immobilon-P; Merck Millipore) and blocked in I-Block solution for one hour at room temperature. Primary antibodies (HJ6.3, Murine ApoE; 6E10, Aβ1–16; IBA1; GFAP; Tuj1; CNPase; HJ15.7, Human ApoE) were diluted in I-Block solution or TBS-Tween and incubated overnight at 4°C with agitation. Blots were washed with TBS-Tween and incubated in corresponding HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies for one hour at room temperature and visualized using enhanced chemiluminescence technique (Pierce).

For histone blots, premade 12% Bolt Tris–tricine gels (Novex) were run in proprietary Novex MES running buffer according to the manufacturer’s manual and transferred to 0.2-µm nitrocellulose membranes in Novex transfer buffer for 1 h at 200 mA with an ice block.
After transfer, all membranes were blocked with 2% milk in TBS-T (50 mM Tris, pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 0.5% Tween-20), incubated overnight with primary antibodies (Supplementary Table 2), washed three times with TBS-T, incubated for 30–60 min with secondary antibodies and developed using the Odyssey infrared scanner.

Strains were inoculated from frozen stocks into 7H9 medium and grown to saturation. They were then diluted 1:500 in chelated Sauton’s medium, grown to saturation, and diluted 1:100 in chelated Sauton’s medium. Proteins from cell pellets and supernatants of cultures grown for 12 h in this fashion were run on 10 to 20% Tris-Tricine gels (Invitrogen) and revealed using an anti-FLAG antibody. An antibody to RNA polymerase (RNAP; Neoclone W0023), an intracellular protein, served as a loading and lysis control.

For photo-crosslinking using σD581BpA and wt core in Figure 3, 38 pmol of σ (in 1 μl TGED/NaCl/Triton) were incubated with 1 μl AsiA buffer [10 mM Tris-Cl (pH 8), 0.1 mM EDTA, 50% glycerol, 500 mM NaCl, 0.1 mM DTT] with or without 65 pmol AsiA and 1 μl of 5× Kglu transcription buffer lacking BSA [40 mM Tris-acetate (pH 7.9), 150 mM potassium glutamate, 4 mM magnesium acetate, 0.1 mM EDTA, and 0.1 mM DTT] for 10 min at 37°C in 1.5 ml eppendorf tubes. RNAP core (4 pmol in 2 μl RNAP storage buffer) or buffer alone was then added and the solution incubated for 10 min at 37°C before collection on ice. Tubes were laid flat on the UV lamp for a total of 30 min at room temperature, turning the tubes to the opposite side after 15 min. Samples were electrophoresed on 10–20% Tris-tricine gels (Invitrogen) and stained with Colloidial Coomassie Blue (Invitrogen). Photocrosslinking reactions in Figure 6B were assembled similarly except reactions contained 120 pmol σD581BpA, 400 pmol AsiA, and 15 pmol of wt or mutant core in a total volume of 30 μl. A 20 μl aliquot was used for photocrosslinking, and a 5 μl aliquot was applied to a 4–12% Tris-glycine gel (Invitrogen/Thermo Fisher) run in 1× Native Tris-glycine buffer (Invitrogen/Thermo Fisher) and stained in Gel Code (Thermo Fisher) as described (46 (link)).

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.
