Western blotting was performed as described previously (Yoshitomi et al., 2017 (link)). Briefly, cells were lysed in Laemmli buffer containing 5% 2-mercaptoethanol and were sonicated for 30 s and then heated at 98°C for 5 min.

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.
