Cytochrome c

Manufactured by BioLegend
Sourced in United States, China

Cytochrome c is a small heme protein found in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells. It is a vital component of the electron transport chain, a series of protein complexes involved in cellular respiration and the production of ATP. Cytochrome c plays a crucial role in the transfer of electrons between these protein complexes, facilitating the flow of energy within the cell.

Cells or NK-EVs were lysed with NP40 Cell Lysis Buffer containing protease and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Cell lysates were incubated with Loading Dye (LI-COR) for 30 min under non-reducing conditions at 37 °C to detect CD63 as previously described [29 (link)] or with Loading Dye and 2-mercaptoethenol for 5 min at 95 °C to detect other proteins. Proteins were loaded onto NuPAGE gels (Invitrogen), transferred to membranes, and the membranes were incubated with 5% skim milk in TBS-T for 1 h at room temperature. The membranes were then incubated overnight at 4 °C with primary antibodies, anti-CD81, CD63 (Cosmo Bio, clone 12C4, 8A12, respectively), cytochrome c, granzyme B (Biolegend, clone 7H8.2C12, O94E6, respectively), β-actin, granzyme H (Cell Signaling Technology, catalog 4967, 18268, respectively), and α-tubulin (Santa Cruz, catalog sc-23948). Secondary antibodies, IRDye 680RD-conjugated anti-mouse IgG, or anti-rabbit IgG (LI-COR) were used at a 1:5000 dilution. The membranes were exposed to ODYSSEY CLx (LI-COR).

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.
