For Phos-tag gel immunoblotting, cells were lysed in lysis buffer, resolved by 7% SDS-PAGE containing 10.7 μM Phos-tag (Wako, AAL-107) and 21.3 μM MnCl2, and transferred to PVDF membranes following manufacturer’s instructions. Membranes were blocked with 5% nonfat dry milk in for 1 hr at RT with gentle rocking. Blots were washed in PBST and then incubated with indicated antibodies overnight at 4°C or for 1 hr at RT with gentle rocking. Blots were washed with PBST, 3–4 times over 45–60 min at RT with gentle rocking, then developed using SuperSignal West Pico Plus ECL substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 34580), and imaged on a G:Box Chemi XRQ system.

Whole lysates were separated by SDS–PAGE and transferred to the PVDF membranes (Millipore). The blots were probed with indicated antibodies, and protein bands on the blot were visualized by the enhanced chemiluminescence reagent (Millipore). Phos‐tag‐PAGE was performed using 7% SDS–PAGE minigels containing 10 μM Phos‐tag (Wako) in the presence of 100 μM MnCl2 following the manufacturer's protocol.

Phosphoprotein Detection by Phos-tag SDS-PAGE

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Protein from integuments was extracted in ice-cold lysis buffer [150 mM NaCl, 0.5% NP-40, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, and 50 mM (pH 7.4) tris-HCl] with protease and phosphatase inhibitor mixtures (Roche). Protein samples were fractionated using 12% SDS-PAGE and transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane (Merck Millipore). In addition, Phos-tag SDS-PAGE gel was prepared by adding an additional 100 μM MnCl2 and 50 μM Phos-tag (Wako, Japan) to the 12% SDS-PAGE. Phos-tag SDS-PAGE gels were washed twice by gently shaking in transfer buffer containing 10 mM EDTA for 10 min and incubated in transfer buffer without EDTA for 10 min before being transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride membranes (Merck Millipore). After blocking with 3% BSA, the membrane was incubated with the corresponding primary antibodies and subsequently with HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies (Proteintech) and visualized using the chemiluminescent nucleic acid detection module (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The blotting band intensity was determined using ImageJ software (NIH, Bethesda, MD, USA). It should be noted that Phos-tag SDS-PAGE can detect phosphorylated and nonphosphorylated proteins by their band shift differences.

Protein samples for Western blotting were boiled at 95 °C for 5 min in 2× SDS sample buffer and separated on standard Lämmli SDS-PAGE gels. Proteins were semidry blotted onto polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes (Roche), which were subsequently blocked in 5% milk in PBST, incubated with primary antibodies in 5% milk in PBST over night at 4 °C, followed by three PBST washes, incubation with the secondary antibodies for 1 h in 5% milk in PBST and final three washes with PBST. Chemiluminescence signals were detected using the imager ImageQuant LAS4000mini (GE Healthcare) or IQ800 (Cytiva) or a film developer machine.
Phos-tag (WAKO) gel electrophoresis for analysis of phosphorylated SAP102 as well as the sample preparation for phosphatase treatment was done as described before (55 ) using Bis-Tris–buffered neutral pH gels with 6% polyacrylamide supplemented with 20 to 75 μM Phos-tag.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Intracellular parasites 24 hours post-infection were harvested in intracellular buffer [31 (link)], filtered with 3-μm Nucleopore membrane, pelleted and re-suspended in either intracellular buffer or extracellular buffer [31 (link)]. Parasites were then incubated at 37°C for 2 minutes and immediately placed on ice followed by centrifugation at 1000 g for 10 min at 4°C. The parasite pellet was then lysed with RIPA buffer containing phosphatase inhibitor, PhosSTOP (Roche) followed by addition of SDS sample buffer containing β-meracaptoethanol and heated at 100°C for 5 min. To examine phosphorylation status of Myosin-A, Phos-tag gel electrophoresis was carried out according to manufacturers instructions (Wako Chemicals, USA). Briefly 200 μM Phos-tag (Wako Chemicals, USA) and 100 μM MnCl2 were added to conventional 7.5% (w/v) acrylamide resolving gel and the gel was run at constant voltage at RT. The gel was washed three times in SDS-PAGE running buffer containing 10 mM EDTA and once each in running buffer and transfer buffer before transferring to a PVDF membrane for immunoblotting using anti-MyosinA antibody.

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.
