Skeletal muscle fibers were isolated from adult Wistar rats. Animals were anesthetized and sacrificed by procedures that are in accordance with the Guidelines for the Care and Use of Mammals in Neuroscience and Behavioral Research (National Research Council 2003) and approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) of College of Medicine, National Taiwan University. In brief, vastus lateralis (thigh muscle) was dissected and homogenized in the T-PER tissue extraction reagent (Thermo Scientific; 0.1 g muscle per 500 μl reagent). Lysates were cleared by micro-centrifugation at 13,000 rpm for 15 min. The supernatants were pre-cleared with protein A sepharose beads (GE Healthcare Biosciences) for 2 hrs, incubated with the anti-CLC-1 antibody at 4 °C for 2 hrs, and then incubated with protein A sepharose beads at 4 °C for 16 hrs. Beads were gently spun down and washed twice in the T-PER reagent and then three times with the wash buffer. The immune complexes were eluted from the beads by heating at 70 °C for 5 min in the Laemmli sample buffer. Where indicated, the specificity of immunoprecipitation was verified with mouse IgG (Sigma).

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.
