At 72 h following transfection, the cells were harvested while the lysates of the cell were generated using RIPA lysis buffer for approximately 30 min at 4°C. The BCA Protein Assay kit (Pierce; Thermo Fisher Scientific) was used to determine the protein concentration. Subsequently, 12.5% SDS-PAGE was used to separate the total protein evenly (50 µg/lane) followed by transfer to PVDF membranes. Membranes were blocked with 5% skim milk powder in TBS-T for 2 h at room temperature and then incubated with primary antibodies at 4°C overnight. The primary antibodies were obtained from Abcam [anti-β-actin antibody (diluted at 1/5,000, ab6276), anti-CCND1 (diluted at 1/200, ab16663) and rabbit anti-CDCA7L (diluted at 1/2,000, ab70637)]. The secondary antibody used was horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (1:10,000, ab6721; Abcam) at room temperature for 1 h. β-actin was used as an internal control for the normalization of the protein expression levels. The proteins bands were visualized using an Enhanced Chemiluminescence Plus Western Blotting Detection system (GE Healthcare). Band intensities were quantified by densitometry using ImageJ Software version 1.6 (National Institutes of Health).

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.
