Protease inhibitor cocktail kit

Manufactured by Roche
Sourced in Switzerland

The Protease inhibitor cocktail kit is a laboratory product designed to inhibit the activity of proteases, which are enzymes that break down proteins. The kit contains a pre-formulated mixture of protease inhibitors that can be added to cell or tissue samples to prevent unwanted protein degradation during sample preparation and analysis.

Mouse anti-MMP2, mouse anti-PP2Ac, and mouse anti-B2M antibodies were purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnologies (Santa Cruz, CA, USA). Total protein was extracted using a lysis buffer containing 50 mM Tris–HCl (pH 7.4), 150 mM NaCl, 1% Triton X-100, 0.1% SDS, 1 mM EDTA, and supplemented with protease inhibitor cocktail kit (Roche). The protein extract was loaded onto an SDS-polyacrylamide gel, size-fractionated by electrophoresis, and then transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes (Bio-Rad Laboratories, CA, USA). After blocking in 5% non-fat milk for 1 hour, the membranes were incubated overnight with primary antibodies at 4 °C. The protein expression was determined using horseradish peroxidase-conjugated antibodies followed by enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL, Millipore, St Charles, MO, USA) detection. The intensity of the bands was captured by JS-1035 image analysis scanning system (Peiqing Science & Technology, Shanghai, China). B2M was used as the internal control.

Total protein was extracted using a lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl [pH 7.4], 150 mM NaCl, 1% Triton X-100, 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate [SDS], 1 mM EDTA) supplemented with a protease inhibitor cocktail kit and a phosphatase inhibitor cocktail kit (Hoffman-La Roche Ltd., Basel, Switzerland). The protein extracts were loaded, size-fractionated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes (Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc., Hercules, CA, USA). After blocking, the membranes were incubated with the primary antibodies mouse anti-β-catenin (Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc., Dallas, TX, USA) and rabbit anti-β-actin (Proteintech Group Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) at 4°C overnight. Protein expression was determined using horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-mouse or anti-rabbit secondary antibodies, followed by detection using enhanced chemiluminescence (EMD Millipore). Band intensity was visualized using a JS-1035 image analysis scanning system (Shanghai Peiqing Science & Technology, Co., Ltd., Shanghai, People’s Republic of China).

Protein Expression Analysis in Tissue

Total protein in tissue and cells was extracted by homogenizing sample in ice-cold radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer with protease inhibitor cocktail kit (Roche). The lysates were centrifuged and the supernatants were collected for measurements of protein concentrations using a bicinchoninic acid assay reagent kit. Fifty microgram of total protein was loaded to run 7.5% or 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), and the protein was transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (GE Healthcare Biosci). Then, the membranes were incubated for 30 minutes in 5% low-fat milk prepared with Tris-buffered saline containing 0.05% Tween-20 (TTBS). Subsequently, the membranes were incubated with primary antibodies as the rabbit anti-TGF-β1, anti-TRPC6, anti-nephrin, anti-desmin and anti-caspase-9 (1:200-1:500, obtained from Neuromics and Abcam Co). After being fully washed, the membrane was incubated with horseradish peroxidase-linked anti-rabbit secondary antibody (1:250) and visualized for immunoreactivity. The membrane was also processed to detect β-actin or GAPDH for equal loading. The bands recognized by the primary antibody were visualized and the optical densities of protein bands were analyzed using the ImageJ software.

CNE-2 cells were lysed with Cell Lysis Buffer (Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA) and supplemented with protease inhibitor cocktail kit (Roche Biochemicals, Penzberg, Germany). Protein samples were separated by 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and then transferred onto polyvinylidene fluoride membranes. The membrane was incubated with primary antibodies for LMP1- (1:2000, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), LMP2A- (1: 1000, Abcam), eIF4E-specific (1: 1000, Abcam) or β-actin (1: 3000, Sino Biological, Wayne, PA, USA). Horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-linked secondary antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch, West Grove, PA, USA) and enhanced chemiluminescence (Thermo Fisher Scientific) were utilized to visualize the specific binding of the HRP-linked second antibody to first antibody-protein complexe, under the UVP BioSpectrum 500 imaging system (UVP, Upland, CA, USA).

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.
