Samples were run on a 4–11% SDS-PAGE gel and transferred onto Transblot Turbo nitrocellulose membranes (Bio-Rad) using the Transblot Turbo system (Bio-Rad). Membranes were probed with Rabbit anti-CRX 119b1 (1∶750) and Mouse anti-β-Actin (Sigma)(1∶1000). Goat anti-Mouse IRDye 680LT and Goat anti-Rabbit IRDye 800CW (LI-COR) were used as secondary antibodies. Signal was detected and quantified using the Odyssey Infrared Imager (LI-COR) and associated manufactory software. Kruskal-Wallis rank order test (Proc Npar1way of SAS, V9.3) was used to test for an overall difference among genotypes (p = 0.0002), then each genotype was compared to WT control (p<0.05). Post-hoc analyses were performeded using FDR p methods for multiple comparisons using PROC Multtest of SAS (V9.3) (FDR p<0.09) (n≥3).

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.
