Each reaction mixture contained 2 µg of recombinant GST-tagged TTP (wild type or mutants) served as substrates, 3 µl of 10X reaction buffer (New England Biolabs), 30 μM of ATP, and kinases including ERK2 (New England Biolabs), p38 alpha (SignalChem), RSK1 (SignalChem), and MK2 (SignalChem) in a nal volume of 30 µl. The kinases can be from cell extracts. 300 g of LPS-treated RAW264.7 whole cell extracts were incubated with GSH-Sepharose bound 2 g of GST-TTP in the buffer containing 20 mM HEPES, pH7.7, 75 mM NaCl, 0.5 mM MgCl 2 , 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.05 % Triton X-100, 0.5 mM DTT, 20 mMglycerolphosphate, 0.1 mM Na 3 VO 4 , 1 g/ml leupeptin, 1 g/ml papstatin A, 100 g/ml PMSF. The mixture was rotated at 4 o C for 3 hr and pelleted by centri gation at 10,000xg for 20 sec. After 4x1-ml washes in HEPES binding buffer (20 mM HEPES, pH7.7, 50mM NaCl, 2.5 mM MgCl 2 , 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.05 % Triton X-100), the beads were resuspended in 30 l for kinase assay. The reaction mixtures were incubated at 30°C for 30 minutes and stopped by adding one volume of protein sample buffer. Samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE for western blotting with anti-phospho-S316 and ponceau S staining.

Each reaction mixture contained 2 μg of recombinant GST-tagged TTP (wild type or mutants) served as substrates, 3 μl of 10X reaction buffer (New England Biolabs), 30 μM of ATP, and kinases including ERK2 (New England Biolabs), p38 alpha (SignalChem), RSK1 (SignalChem), and MK2 (SignalChem) in a final volume of 30 μl. The kinases can be from cell extracts. 300 μg of LPS-treated RAW264.7 whole cell extracts were incubated with GSH-Sepharose bound 2 μg of GST-TTP in the buffer containing 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.7, 75 mM NaCl, 0.5 mM MgCl2, 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.05% Triton X-100, 0.5 mM DTT, 20 mM β-glycerolphosphate, 0.1 mM Na3VO4, 1 μg/ml leupeptin, 1 μg/ml pepstatin A, 100 μg/ml PMSF. The mixture was rotated at 4 °C for 3 h and pelleted by centrifugation at 10,000×g for 20 s. After 4 × 1-ml washes in HEPES binding buffer (20 mM HEPES, pH 7.7, 50 mM NaCl, 2.5 mM MgCl2, 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.05% Triton X-100), the beads were resuspended in 30 μl for kinase assay. The reaction mixtures were incubated at 30 °C for 30 min and stopped by adding one volume of protein sample buffer. Samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE for western blotting with anti-phospho-S316 and ponceau S staining.

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.
