GST-PAK1 PBD was used as an effector
for Rac1, RhoH, and Wrch2/RhoV. HEK293T cells were transfected with
the relevant expression construct and lysed after 40 h in buffer (20
mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl2, 5 mM β-glycerophosphate,
1 mM DTT) containing 10 μg of GST-PAK1 PBD. The lysate was then
incubated with glutathione-sepharose 4B beads for 45 min at 4 °C.
The beads were washed with lysis buffer and resuspend in LDS sample
buffer. GTP-bound small GTPases were identified by Western blotting
using antibodies specific for Rac1 (05-389, Merck) or anti-V5 (R961-25,
Invitrogen) for RhoH and Wrch2/RhoV.
GST-Rhotekin 1–89
was used as an effector for RhoA, RhoB, and RhoC. Transfected HEK293T
cells were lysed as above, prior to incubation with 100 μL (10
μg) of GST-Rhotekin-bead suspension for 45 min at 4 °C.
Following incubation, the beads were washed and eluted with LDS sample
buffer. GTP-bound RhoA was identified by Western blotting with anti-RhoA
(26C4, sc-418, Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc.); GTP-bound RhoB with
anti-RhoB (14326-1-AP, Proteintech); and GTP-bound RhoC with anti
RhoC (D40E4, 3430S, Cell Signaling Technology).

3 × 106 HEK293T cells were seeded in 10 cm dishes 48 h before the end point, in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS. For RalB/RLIP76 coimmunoprecipitations cells were transfected with GFP (1 μg), flag-RLIP76 (5 μg), and V5-RalB Q72L (5 μg) or GFP only (11 μg) 24 h before the end point, while for RalB/Sec5 coimmunoprecipitations cells were transfected with GFP (1 μg) and V5-RalB Q72L (5 μg) or GFP only (6 μg) 24 h before the endpoint. Dishes were lysed in 1 ml lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.8, 150 mM NaCl, 1% Triton, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM sodium orthovanadate, 1 mM β-glycerophosphate, and protease inhibitor cocktail (Sigma-Aldrich). Lysates (1 ml) were centrifuged at 17,000g for 20 min and added to Protein G Dynabeads (30 μl, Invitrogen) preincubated with anti-V5 antibody (1 μg, R960-25, Invitrogen). Peptides, at the concentrations indicated in the results, were added and incubated with rotation for 1 h at 4 °C. Precipitated complexes were washed with lysis buffer (3 × 500 μl). Samples were resolved by SDS-PAGE and transferred to PVDF membranes (Immobilon-P). Membranes were probed by immunoblotting with the following primary antibodies: anti-V5-HRP (R961-25, Invitrogen), anti-flag-HRP (A8592, Sigma-Aldrich), and anti-Sec5 (EPR9420, Abcam).

HEK293 cells were co-transfected (Lipofectamine 2000) with a CMV.DUX4.V5 expression vector containing the DUX4 3′ UTR and U6.miDUX4s or control U6.miLacZ in a 1:5 molar ratio. Protein was extracted in M-PER Mammalian Protein Extraction Reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific) 24 hr later and quantified using the DC Protein Assay (Bio-Rad). Fifteen microgram samples were separated on 12% SDS-PAGE, transferred to nitrocellulose membrane, and incubated with the following antibodies: mouse monoclonal antibody to V5 (horseradish peroxidase [HRP]-coupled) (1:5,000, R961-25; Invitrogen); mouse monoclonal GAPDH antibody (1:1,000, CB1001; Millipore), or goat polyclonal GAPDH (1:500, ab9483; Abcam) overnight at 4°C. GAPDH-probed blots were washed and then incubated with HRP-coupled goat anti-mouse or HRP-coupled donkey anti-goat secondary antibody (1:100,000, 115-035-003 and 705-035-147; Jackson ImmunoResearch) for 1 hr at room temperature. Following washes, blots were developed using Immobilon Western HRP substrate (Millipore) and exposed to film. DUX4.V5 quantification was assessed using ImageJ.

Following the incubation times and treatments specific to each experiment, cultured cells were washed and lysed and the lysates cleared, as described above. Thirty to fifty micrograms of protein were separated on 8% Tris glycine SDS-PAGE gels and transferred to a PVDF membrane. Western blotting was performed for human LDLR-V5 and human PCSK9-V5 (anti-V5-HRP, 1:5000; R96125; Invitrogen) and for β-actin (rabbit anti-β-actin, 1:5000; A2066; Sigma).

Antibody-based Detection of TK2 Isoforms

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Three rabbit polyclonal antibodies were used to detect the TK2 proteins. For the canonical TK2 protein, one antibody (SAB1306026 [1:1000], Sigma-Aldrich) was used to detect the TK2 N-terminus, and another (NBP1-79,890 [1:2000], Novus Biologicals, Centennial, CO, USA) was used to detect its C-terminus. For the TK2-EXT protein, SAB1306026 was used to detect the N-terminus, and our original antibody (rabbit polyclonal antibody “pAb #A18JP00152” against the peptide RHNKQAGRRDGRPGELHVP [1:100]) was used to detect the C-terminus. Hence, SAB1306026 could detect both canonical TK2 and TK2-EXT, whereas NBP1-79,890 and pAb #A18JP00152 specifically detected canonical TK2 and TK2-EXT, respectively. Other antibodies used were rabbit anti-G3PD antibody (ab9485 [1:5000], Abcam, Cambridge, UK), rabbit anti-β-actin antibody (A2066 [1:5000], Sigma-Aldrich), mouse anti-His antibody (ab18184 [1:2000], Abcam), anti-V5-HRP antibody (R961-25 [1:5000], Invitrogen), mouse anti-calbindin-D28k antibody (C9848 [1:5000], Sigma-Aldrich), mouse anti-COX IV antibody (for western blot, sc-376731 [1:1500], Santa Cruz, CA, USA; for IHC, ab14744 [1:100], Abcam), and mouse anti-COX I antibody (for western blot, ab14705 [1:5000], Abcam; for IHC, the same antibody [1:500]).

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.
