Total protein concentrations in cell lysates prepared from FMDV-infected and uninfected cells harvested at 6 h p.i. were measured, and equivalent amounts of cell lysates from two independent biological replicates were denatured by heating at 100°C for 10 min in 5×sample loading buffer and separated using 10% SDS-PAGE. Proteins were electrotransferred to 0.45 μm nitrocellulose membranes (Bio-Rad), blocked with 5% nonfat milk in TBS containing 0.05% Tween-20 (TBST) overnight at 4°C. The membranes were then incubated for 1 h at room temperature with specific antibodies against DARS (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., USA), LYPLA1 (Abcam, UK), SEC62 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA), EIF2AK2 (Abcam, UK), EVI5 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA),VPS28 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA), Tublin (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., USA)or β-actin (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., USA). Incubation with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibodies (Sigma) was performed at room temperature for 1 h, followed by washing with TBST three times. The protein bands were visualized using Amersham ECL Plus Western Blot Detection Reagents (GE Healthcare).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Coverslip-adhered BHK-21 cell monolayers were infected with FMDV at an MOI of 1. The plates were inoculated at 37°C over 1 h followed by replacement with fresh growth media, and were incubated at 37°C for another 5 h. The cells were fixed with 4% PFA and treated with 0.01% Triton X-100, with the following antibodies applied: DARS (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., USA), LYPLA1 (Abcam, UK), SEC62 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA), EIF2AK2 (Abcam, UK), EVI5 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA),VPS28 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA), or β-actin (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., USA). FMDV proteins were detected by pig anti-FMDV Asia 1 VLPs serum (primary antibody, 1:100) recognized by a TRITC-conjugated secondary antibody (Sigma). DAPI was used as counterstain to allow visualization of cell nuclei. Immunofluorescence confocal microscopy images were captured on an LSM510 META microscope (Carl Zeiss, Ltd.).

Western Blot Analysis of Cellular Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were lysed in ice-cold RIPA buffer containing protease (cOmplete tablets mini) and phosphate (PhosSTOP EASYpack) inhibitors (both Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany) and centrifuged, the supernatant was collected. Denatured protein samples (25μg) were separated by gel electrophoresis for 50 min at 200 V and transferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes for 105 min at 30 V. Blots were blocked in 5% dry milk and incubated at 4 °C overnight with rabbit polyclonal antibody against NHP2L1 (1:500; #15802–1-AP), RABAC (PRAF1; 1:250; #10542–1-AP, both Proteintech, Rosemount, IL), BRIX1 (1:1000, NBP1–91708, Novus Biologicals, Centennial, CO) and rabbit monoclonal antibody against Sec61B (1:500; #14648, Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA) and PKR (EIF2AK2; 1:2000; ab184257,abcam). The signal was visualized using Amersham ECL anti-rabbit horseradish peroxidase-linked (1:1000; Cytiva, Marlborough, MA) supersignal chemiluminescent reagents (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and a Chemidoc Touch Imaging System (BIO-RAD, Hercules, CA). Blots were stripped using Restore Western Blot Stripping Buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and reprobed using mouse monoclonal antibody against β actin (1:8000; NB600–501, Novus Biologicals) and reimaged. Densitometry was quantified using Image Studio Lite, version 5.2.5 (LI-COR Biosciences, Lincoln, NE); each protein was normalized relative to β actin.

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.
