Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Anti-FLAG antibody-coated plate (GenScript, L00455C), recombinant His-tagged TS5-p45, and FLAG-tagged NCL-FL and Ctrl overexpression WCL were used in this experiment. Specific FLAG-tagged NCL-FL capture was first verified by titrating the Anti-FLAG antibody-coated plate with increasing doses of NCL-FL lysate. Anti-NCL primary antibody (Abcam, ab22758) and Alexa Fluor 488 conjugated anti-rabbit IgG (Invitrogen, A-11034) were used for detection. The same protocol was applied to Ctrl lysates as a negative control. Saturation binding experiment was then performed by titrating TS5-p45 over FLAG-tagged NCL-FL- and Ctrl-captured wells at 4 °C for overnight incubation. The following day, treated wells were incubated with anti-His (Abcam, ab9108) at room temperature for 2 h and Alexa Fluor 488 conjugated anti-rabbit IgG (Invitrogen, A-11034) at room temperature for 1 h. Finally, fluorescence intensity was measured with Hidex Sense Microplate Reader (Hidex, Finland). Binding affinity was calculated with GraphPad Prism 8.

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.
