To validate anti-ATF6 antibody (ab37149; abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), we performed a colocalization assay using flag-tagged ATF6-transfected COS-7 cells. The cells were grown on coverslips in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (Invitrogen) supplemented with 10 % fetal bovine serum and then transfected with Lipofectamine reagent (Invitrogen). After incubation at 37 °C with 5 % CO2 for 24 h, transfected cells were fixed with 4 % paraformaldehyde (EMS) in PBS for 30 min, permeabilized for 15 min in 0.2 % Triton X-100 and nonspecific binding sites were blocked by incubation in 2 % BSA and 5 % normal goat serum in PBS for 30 min. Primary ATF6 and anti-flag antibodies were diluted in blocking solution to a final concentration of ~0.5 μg per ml. COS-7 cells were incubated for 2 h at room temperature with ATF6 and anti-flag antibodies, followed by incubation with Alexa Fluor 546 goat anti-rabbit and Alexa Fluor 488 goat anti-mouse secondary antibodies (Molecular Probes) for 45 min at room temperature. Rhodamine phalloidin labeled the actin cytoskeleton and DAPI was used to stain nuclei.

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.
