To extract proteins from A. fumigatus mycelia, conidia from related strains were incubated in liquid-inducing medium and then shaken at 220 rpm on a rotary shaker at 37 °C for 48 h. The mycelium was ground in liquid nitrogen using a mortar and pestle and suspended in ice-cold extraction buffer (50 mM HEPES (pH 7.4), 137 mM KCl, 10% glycerol, 1 mM EDTA, 1 μg/mL pepstatin A, 1 μg/mL leupeptin, and 1 mM PMSF). Equal amounts of proteins (40 μg) per lane were subjected to 10% SDS – PAGE and transferred to PVDF membranes (Immobilon-P, Millipore) in 384 mM glycine, 50 mM Tris (pH 8.4), and 20% methanol at 250 mA for 1.5 h, the membranes were blocked with PBS, 5% milk, and 0.1% Tween 20. Next, the membrane was probed sequentially with 1:3000 dilutions of anti-GFP primary antibody (Sigma) and goat anti-rabbit IgG-horseradish peroxidase secondary antibody (Abclonal, AS014) diluted in PBS, 5% milk, and 0.1% Tween 20. Blots were developed using Clarity ECL Western blotting detection reagents (Bio-Rad), and images were acquired with a Tanon 4200 Chemiluminescence Imaging System.

2×106 T cells were incubated for 45min in ice-cold lysis buffer (10mM Tris, 50mM NaCl, 5mM EDTA and 1% Triton X-100) containing various protease and phosphatase inhibitors (50mM NaF, 1mM Na3VO4, 30mM sodium pyrophosphate, 1mM PMSF, 2µg/ml leupeptin, 2µg/ml aprotinin). Lysates were then centrifuged at 12.000 g for 15min at 4°C to remove insoluble material. Protein concentration was determined using the Coomassie protein assay reagent (Sigma Aldrich). Proteins (20µg per lane) were separated in 4 to12% gradient (wt/vol) Bis-Tris gels (Life Technologies) and transferred to nitrocellulose (Life Technologies) or PVDF (Millipore) membrane. Membranes were blocked for 1h with Tris-buffered saline solution containing 0.05% Tween (TBS-T) and 5% non-fat dry milk at room temperature. Following blocking, membranes were incubated overnight at 4°C with the indicated antibody in blocking solution on a shaking surface and were then washed and incubated with the appropriate secondary HRP-conjugated antibody for 1.5h at room temperature. Detection was performed with the Clarity ECL Western Blotting detection reagents (Biorad) and membranes were visualized by the ChemiDoc XRS+ Molecular Imager (Biorad). Densitometric analysis was performed using the ImageJ software and results are expressed as densitometric ratios of tyrosine phosphorylated proteins or SAP over β-actin ± SEM.

Western blotting was carried out as previously reported (51 (link)). Briefly, 1 × 106 conidia of the AfERG10A::GFP and WT strains were inoculated in liquid CM and shaken at 37°C for 48 h. The mycelia were harvested and ground in liquid nitrogen with a mortar and pestle and suspended in ice-cold extraction buffer (50 mM HEPES [pH 7.4], 137 mM KCl, 10% glycerol, 1 mM EDTA, 1 μg/ml pepstatin A, 1 μg/ml leupeptin, 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride [PMSF]). Ten micrograms of proteins per lane was loaded onto a 10% SDS-PAGE gel. After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane (Millipore) in 384 mM glycine, 50 mM Tris (pH 8.4), and 20% methanol at 250 mA for 1.5 h. The membrane was then blocked with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing 5% milk and 0.1% Tween 20. The membrane was then incubated in anti-mouse GFP primary antibody (Roche) at a 1:20,000 dilution and goat anti-mouse IgG-horseradish peroxidase secondary antibody at a 1:5,000 dilution. Blots were developed using the Clarity ECL Western blotting detection reagents (Bio-Rad), and images were acquired with a Tanon 4200 chemiluminescent imaging system (Tanon).

Total cell lysates were collected by lysing H9C2 cardiomyocytes with lysis buffer supplemented with Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and Phosphatase Inhibitor Cocktail (Roche). The protein concentration of the cell lysate was measured by Bradford assay (Bio-Rad, CA, USA).

Primary antibodies against total caspase 3 (1 : 1000), cleaved caspase 3 (1 : 1000), Bax (1 : 1000), Bcl-2 (1 : 1000), GADPH antibody (1 : 1000), and horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-mouse or anti-rabbit secondary antibodies (1 : 3000) were purchased from Cell Signaling Technology. Anti-Ptpn4 antibody (1 : 1000) was purchased from Novus. Blots were visualized with Clarity ECL Western Blotting Detection Reagent (Bio-Rad) and subsequently exposed to X-ray film (Carestream, NY, USA). ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health, MD, USA) was used to analyze the optical densities of the immunoreactive bands. Protein expression was normalized to that of loading control (GAPDH).

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.
