Cultured cells were lysed with RIPA lysis buffer (Beyotime, Shanghai, China). BCA kit (Pierce, Rockford, IL) was used to measure protein concentrations. The Flag and HA sequences were inserted into plasmids by the primers containing specific restriction sites. The plasmids were transformed into competent cells, screened, and amplified with LB containing ampicillin. High-concentration recombinant Flag-TMED3 and HA-FAM60A were obtained. These two plasmids were verified by DNA sequencing. Endotoxin-free extraction was carried out for subsequent cell transfection [18 (link)]. The equivalent amounts of proteins were separated on 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and transferred to a PVDF membrane (Millipore, Bedford, MA). PVDF membrane was blocked with a blocking buffer and was incubated with an anti-TMED3 (ab223175, Abcam), anti-FAM60A (ab167180, Abcam), anti-GAPDH (AP0063, Bioworld, Nanjing, China), anti-DYKDDDDK Tag (14,793, Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA), anti-HA (ab9110, Abcam), anti-GAPDH antibody (AP0063, Bioworld), and the corresponding secondary antibodies, goat anti-rabbit IgG (A0208, Beyotime) or goat anti-mouse IgG (A0216, Beyotime). Immobilon Western Chemiluminescent HRP Substrate kit (Millipore) was used for color development and the bands were detected using an Amersham Imager 600 (GE Healthcare Little Chalfont, Buckinghamshire, UK).

Fresh-frozen antrum specimens were homogenized in extraction buffer, and were centrifuged at 12,000 g for 10 min at 4°C, and protein concentration in the supernatant was quantified by the bicinchoninic acid (BCA) method. Later, equivalents of 40μg of extracted proteins were separated using 12% SDS-PAGE, and the separated proteins were then transferred electrophoretically onto PVDF membranes. After blocking nonspecific binding sites with 5% nonfat dry milk in Tris·HCl-buffered saline (TBS) for 1 h, the membranes were then incubated with primary antibodies to c-Kit (1:200,sc-168,Santa, CA.), respectively, overnight at 4°C. Anti-rat GAPDH (1:500,AP0063, Bioworld Technology, Inc.) served as the internal control. After that, the membranes were washed in TBST (TBS with 0.1% Tween-20) for three times and incubated with HRP-linked secondary antibody (1:5,000,Goat anti-Rabbit IgG-HRP,Bioworld Technology, Inc.) for 1 h at room temperature. Detection of protein was achieved by ECL reagents, and the blot was subjected to autoradiography. A semiquantitative measurement of the band intensity was performed by Quantity One (ChemiDoc XRS+ System, Bio-RAD,Inc.)

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.
