Cells were plated on coverslips and transfected following overnight incubation. Cells were fixed with 3% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized in 0.5% Triton-X100 for 10 min and blocked in 5% FBS diluted in PBS. Coverslips were incubated overnight with primary antibody HA (HA-7, H9658, Sigma-Aldrich) or FLAG (M2, F1804, Sigma-Aldrich), washed in PBS and incubated with anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 488 secondary antibody (Invitrogen, Life Technologies, Burlington, ON, Canada).

The peptide sequence used to raise a polyclonal rabbit antibody against Adprhl1 was: 248DNYDAEERDKTYKKWSSE265 (Cambridge Research Biochemicals). The sequence derives from mouse ADPRHL1, yet the antibody is also active against the Xenopus and human orthologs (aa residues 249-266). Other antibodies used were: Myosin A4.1025 (DSHB), Actin 20-33 A5060 (Sigma), Sarcomeric α-actinin EA-53 (abcam), FLAG M2 F1804 (Sigma), HA 3F10 (Roche), NKX2-5H-114 (Santa Cruz). Fluorescent dye-conjugated secondary antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch) and Alexa Fluor568-conjugated phalloidin (Invitrogen) were used to visualize myofibril components. Immunocytochemistry was performed on whole tadpoles and subsequently the hearts were dissected, mounted in 12 μl CyGEL Sustain (biostatus) and viewed using a Zeiss LSM5-Pascal confocal or a Zeiss Axioimager microscope. The confocal images of whole hearts captured 2 µm deep optical sections. Images of myofibrils were 1 µm optical sections, at a depth 1–2 µm below the outer (apical) myocardial surface. Cell number counts of the heart surface at stage 33 utilised cortical filament staining to discriminate cell boundaries while stage 37 and 40 ventricles used cell nuclei counts with Image J.

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.
