The treated cells were lysed with radio immunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) buffer (Beyotime, Nanjing, China) on ice. The supernatant of the lysis was collected after centrifugation for 15 min at 12,000 g and 4 °C. The protein concentrations were tested using the Bradford protein assay kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China). Each 30 µg protein was added with loading buffer (Beyotime) and was heated to 100 °C for 10 min. The samples were separated with 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) gels (Beyotime, Shanghai, China), transferred to a 0.22 µm polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane (Merck Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany), incubated with primary (anti-RGS1, ab154973, 1:500; anti-β-actin, ab8227, 1:3,000. Abcam, London, UK) and secondary (goat anti-rabbit immunoglobulin G (IgG), ab97051, 1:5,000, Abcam) antibodies, and visualized under a ChemiDoc XRS+ detector with chemiluminescent substrate ECL kit (Merck Millipore) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Western Blot Analysis of Embryonic Brain and Eye

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Brains and eyes were harvested from Stages 40/41 embryos that were anesthetized with 0.4mg/ml MS222 in 1X MBS. The tissues were mechanically homogenized with radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA; Sigma) buffer supplemented with protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche) by repeated pipetting, and solubilized by constant rotation at 4°C for 30 min. Remaining non-solubilized material was then pelleted by centrifugation at 13000rpm for 10 min and only the supernatant was then retained. Protein concentration was determined by Bradford assay (Bio-Rad) and spectrophotometry. Bovine serum albumin (BSA; Invitrogen) was used to create a standard curve for protein concentration and for normalizing the concentration between samples. The lysates were resolved by 12% TGX precast gels (BioRad) at constant 20mA, transferred to nitrocellulose membrane (BioRad) at constant 110V and subjected to western blot analysis by incubating with a rabbit anti-β-actin (Abcam Cat# ab8227, RRID:AB_2305186; 1:8000) or rabbit anti-β-catenin (Sigma-Aldrich Cat# C2206, RRID:AB_476831; 1:8000) antibody at 4°C for overnight. The blots were then incubated with HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies (Abcam Cat# ab97080, RRID:AB_10679808; 1:16000) in room temperature for one hour, followed by ECL-based detection (Invitrogen).

Cells were dissociated in extraction buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 100 mM NaCl, 5 mM EDTA, and 1 mM EGTA) using plastic cell scraper and lysed with 6 short sonication bursts at 36% amplitude (Vibra-Cell VCX-600, Sonics). About 250 µg/ml protein was loaded for Simple-Western WES (ProteinSimple) quantification with antibodies for CASK (1:500 Novus Biologicals NBP2-41181), beta-actin (1:100 Abcam ab8227), and GAPDH (1:5000 Sigma G9545). Compass Software For Simple Western (Version 4.0.0) was used to identify protein-specific peaks. In the chromatogram, the peak area was used for protein quantification. We normalized CASK protein for housekeeping protein. For time point days 0, 8, and 16, we obtained two and three biological replicates for time point 28 and siRNA-mediated knockdown of CASK. Biological replicates were seeded at different dates, using different passages. Statistical significance between cell lines was determined with ANOVA and post hoc Tukey HSD in R.

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.
