Sar1a

Manufactured by Abcam

Sar1a is a protein that plays a crucial role in the regulation of vesicle trafficking from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus. It is involved in the formation and budding of COPII-coated vesicles, which are responsible for the transport of cargo proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi.

The primary antibodies used were: a) rabbit polyclonal – NMIIA (Sigma), phospho-NMIIA (Ser1943) (Cell Signaling Technology), giantin, Man-II, and Rab6a (Abcam); b) mouse monoclonal - Rab6a (Santa Cruz Biotechnology), β-actin (Sigma), Sar1a, giantin (Abcam); c) mouse polyclonal - ST3Gal1 (Abnova). The secondary antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch) were: a) HRP-conjugated donkey anti-rabbit and donkey anti-mouse for Western-blotting; b) donkey anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 488 and anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 594 for immunofluorescence. Blebbistatin (Sigma) and latrunculin A (Tocris Bioscience) were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) immediately before use. Cells treated with a corresponding concentration of DMSO served as controls. The regular working concentrations were: Blebbistatin −25 μM for up to 24 h; latrunculin A −0.2 μM for up to 24 h. Active human Rab6a full length protein was obtained from Abcam.

Pyrazole (Sigma), MG-132 (EMD Chemicals) and Brefeldin A (Sigma) were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) immediately before use. Cells treated with a corresponding concentration of DMSO served as controls. The regular working concentrations were: Pyrazole – 5 mM for 72 h, MG-132 – 2.5 μM for 24 h and Brefeldin A – 36 μM for 1 h.

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.
