Protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail

Manufactured by MedChemExpress
Sourced in China

Protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail are laboratory reagents designed to inhibit the activity of proteases and phosphatases, respectively, in biological samples. The protease inhibitor cocktail contains a mixture of compounds that target and inhibit the activity of various proteases, while the phosphatase inhibitor cocktail contains a combination of compounds that inhibit the activity of different types of phosphatases. These products are commonly used in research applications to maintain the integrity of proteins and phosphorylated molecules during sample preparation and analysis.

Western Blot Analysis of Endometrial Proteins

Endometrial tissues or cultured HESCs were lysed in RIPA lysis buffer (Biosharp, China) added with protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (MedChemExpress, USA) for 30 min on ice. The supernatant was collected after centrifugation at 12,000×g for 20 min. Protein concentration was assessed with a Pierce BCA protein assay kit (Thermo Scientific, USA). The proteins were fractionated with SDS-PAGE gels, transferred to PVDF membranes (Bio-Rad, USA), and then blocked in 5% nonfat milk (Bio-Rad, USA) at room temperature. The membranes were incubated with appropriate primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C and then hybridized with a horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature. The bands were visualized with ECL solution (BioRad, USA). The antibodies used are summarized in Supplementary Table S3.

Protein Extraction and Western Blot Analysis

Protein extraction and Western blot analysis were performed as described previously (Gao et al., 2019 (link)). Tissues or cultured cells were lysed in RIPA buffer (Solarbio, Beijing, China) and a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (MedChemExpress, NJ, United States). The samples were kept on ice for 30 min and then centrifuged at 12,000 g for 25 min at 4°C. After the protein concentration was determined, protein lysates were separated by SDS-PAGE and then transferred to PVDF membranes (Millipore, MA, United States), blocked with 5% skim milk or 5% BSA in Tris-buffered saline with 0.1% Tween 20 (TBST) for 2 h at room temperature, and incubated overnight with primary antibodies. After incubation with primary antibodies, the membranes were washed in TBST three times and then incubated with their specific HRP-linked secondary antibodies (1:5,000; Jackson ImmunoResearch, PA, United States) in TBST for at least 1 h at room temperature. Bands on the membranes were visualized by ECL Western Blotting Substrate (Solarbio) using the Bio-Rad ChemiDocTM XRS + System. The related antibody information is summarized in Supplementary Table 5.

Protein extraction and western blotting

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Tissues or cells were lysed in lysis buffer (Biosharp, China) supplemented with protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (MedChemExpress, USA) and clarified by centrifugation at 12,000 × g for 15 min. The protein concentrations were determined using a Pierce BCA protein assay kit (Thermo Scientific, USA). Protein samples (30 μg) were fractionated with SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF membranes (Bio-Rad, USA), and incubated in 5% nonfat milk (Bio-Rad, USA) at room temperature. The membranes were incubated with primary antibodies at 4 °C overnight and were then incubated with HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies at room temperature for 1 h. The signals were visualized with ECL solution (Bio-Rad, USA) and quantified by analysis of the integrated density normalized to the level of β-actin using ImageJ. The antibodies used are shown in Supplementary Table S2.

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.
