Luminata crescendo substrate

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

Luminata Crescendo substrate is a chemiluminescent detection reagent used in Western blotting applications. It generates a luminescent signal when reacted with the horseradish peroxidase (HRP) enzyme, which is commonly used to label antibodies in immunoblotting techniques. The substrate's core function is to provide a sensitive and quantitative method for detecting and visualizing target proteins on Western blot membranes.

Cells or embryos (at least 100 for conditions) were lysed in RIPA buffer containing 1X protease inhibitor cocktail (SIGMA). Cleared proteins extracts were quantified by using the Bradford method (Bio-Rad). For WB, protein samples were separated on 15% SDS-PAGE and transferred to PVDF membrane (Millipore). Membranes were blocked in TBS containing 5% Non Fat Dry Milk (Cell Signaling) and incubated with the follows primary antibodies: anti-GFP 1:500 (Abcam, ab13970), anti GFP rabbit polyclonal antibody (Life technologies, a6445), used 1:1000 (for HEK 293T/17 cells experiments), anti-β-Actin 1:500 (Sigma), anti-GAPDH 1:1000 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology), anti-COX-IV 1:500 (Cell Signaling), anti-COX7B 1:500 (Abcam, ab137094).
Proteins of interest were detected with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-mouse or anti-rabbit IgG antibody (1:3000, GE Healthcare) and rabbit anti-chicken IgY antibody (Millipore) visualized with the Luminata Crescendo substrate (Millipore) or the Super Signal West Femto substrate (Thermo Scientific), according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Western blotting images were acquired using the Chemidoc-lt imaging system (UVP) and band intensity was calculated using ImageJ software.

Cells were seeded in 35 mm dishes (50000/dish) two days prior to sample collection. Samples were washed once with cold PBS, then lysed in hot buffer (1% (w/v) SDS, 10% (v/v) glycerol, 10% (v/v) β-ME, 40 mM Tris pH 6.8, 0.01% (w/v) bromophenol blue). Proteins were resolved on polyacrylamide gels run under denaturing conditions, then transferred to nitrocellulose membrane (Protran BA-83, GE Healthcare). Membranes were blocked with 5% (w/v) skim milk powder in TBS-T prior to overnight incubation with primary antibody (anti-IκB⍺, Cell Signalling Technology #9242, 1:1,000; anti-ICAM1, Santa Cruz Biotechnology sc-8439, 1:200; anti-⍺-Tubulin, Sigma Aldrich T6199, 1:4,000; anti-Vinculin, Cell Signalling Technology 4650S, 1:1,000). Membranes were washed with TBS-T, incubated with HRP-conjugated secondary antibody (CST #7074 or #7076, 1:1,000), washed and developed using Luminata Crescendo substrate (Millipore WBLUR0500). Signal was detected using Carestream Kodak BioMax MR film (Sigma-Aldrich). Unprocessed images of films are provided in Supplementary Figure S7. Signal was quantified using Fiji (Schindelin et al., 2012 (link)).

Proteins were extracted from cultured PASMCs with RIPA buffer (containing 1% PMSF) for 30 min on ice, and equal amounts of protein were separated by 10% SDS‐polyacrylamide gels and transferred onto PVDF membranes. Western blots were performed using primary antibodies for Cx43 (Abcam, 1:500), phosphorylation of Cx43 at Ser 368 (Affinity, 1:500), HIF‐1α (Beijing ZSBio, 1:500) or β‐actin (Millipore, 1:1000) and the horseradish peroxidase (HRP)‐coupled goat anti‐mouse secondary antibody (for Cx43, Promega, 1:2000) or HRP‐coupled goat anti‐rabbit secondary antibody (for HIF‐1α and β‐actin, Beijing ZSBio, 1:5000). The chemiluminescence signals were detected with the Luminata™ Crescendo substrate (Millipore, WBLUR0100). Densitometric analysis was conducted with a ChemiDoc XRS+System (Bio‐Rad Co. Ltd. USA).

Whole cellular extracts from control, modified, and stimulated cells were prepared using 100 μl of RIPA-lysis buffer (0.25% Na-deoxycholate, 0.5% Nonidet P-40, 0.05% SDS, protease inhibitor cocktail, 2.5 mM EDTA in PBS). Protein concentration was determined using the BCA protein assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Equal amounts of protein (20 μg/well) were separated on 12% SDS-PAGE gels and electrotransferred onto PVDF membranes (Millipore) in buffer consisting of 25 mM Tris, 0.2 M glycine, and 20% methanol (100 V, 90 min). Non-specific binding sites were blocked with 5% skim milk in TBST buffer (20 mM Tris, pH 7.5, 0.5 M NaCl, 0.05% Tween 20) for 2 h, followed by overnight incubation with the relevant primary antibody: rabbit anti-MCPIP1 (1:2000, GeneTex) or mouse anti-β-actin (1:10,000, BD Bioscience). Membranes were washed extensively in TBST buffer, and then incubated for 2 h in TBST buffer containing 5% skim milk and horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibodies: goat anti-rabbit IgG (1:3000, Cell Signaling) and goat anti-mouse (1:10,000, BD Bioscience). All incubations were performed at 4°C. Membranes were washed (5 × 5 min) in TBST buffer, and blots were developed using Luminata Crescendo Substrate (Millipore). Membranes were exposed to Kodak Medical X-ray Film and developed.

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.
