An equal quantity of protein in 16 μL was loaded per well of pre-cast mini-protean TGX gels 4–20% gels (Biorad), with one gel per timeseries. Electrophoresis was applied according to the manufacturers protocol with a tris–glycine-SDS running buffer (Biorad). Protein transfer onto nitrocellulose membranes (Biorad) was performed using the trans-blot turbo mini kit (Biorad). The membranes were allowed to dry at room temp for 1 h prior to quantifying the total protein using the Li-Cor total protein stain protocol and Odyssey blot-imager (Li-Cor). The membranes were blocked using 5% non-fat milk powder (Marvel) in Tris-buffered saline (TBS) for 1 h at room temperature before incubating overnight at 4 °C with primary antibody (rabbit anti-bmal-1, abcam ab93806) diluted 1:3000 in 2.5% milk in TBS + 0.1% tween-20. After washing, membranes were incubated for 1 h at room temp with secondary antibody, donkey anti-rabbit IRDye 800CW (Licor, 925–32,213) diluted 1:10,000 in TBS + 0.2% tween-20. The membranes were washed extensively before imaging with the Li-Cor Odyssey blot-imager. The 800 nm fluorescence signal from BMAL-1 was quantified using the Image Studio Lite software (Li-Cor Bioscience) and normalised to total protein. Representative Western blot images are presented in Fig. S1 in the supplementary material.

Total cell lysates were prepared in RIPA buffer (50 mM Tris-Cl pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1% sodium deoxycholate, 1% NP-40; 0.1% SDS) or cell lysis buffer (20 mM Tris-Cl pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM EGTA, 2.5 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 1 mM β-glycerophosphate, 1 mM Na3VO4, 1% Triton-X-100) containing protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche) and phosphatase inhibitor (Sigma) and protein concentrations were determined by BCA assay kit (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA). Thirty micrograms of total cell lysates were subjected to 4–20% SDS-PAGE and transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membrane. The membrane was blocked in 20 mM Tris-HCl, 137 mM NaCl, and 0.2% Tween 20 (pH 7.6) containing 5% nonfat milk. The membrane was immunoblotted with primary antibodies at 4 °C overnight followed by secondary antibody conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) for 1 hr. The membrane was exposed on X-ray film using ECL Western blot detection reagents (Pierce Biotechnology, Rockford, IL) or digitally captured using Odyssey blot imager (LI-COR, Lincoln, NE). Raw uncropped images with molecular size marker were displayed in the supplementary section (Figs S4S9). Immunoblot band density was measured by ImageJ program (National Institute of Health) and normalized by the intensity of loading control (Tubulin or Actin) as indicated.

Western Blotting Protocol for Protein Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Equal amounts of lysates were loaded onto Mini-Protean TGX (4-20%) SDS-PAGE gels (BioRad). All blots except phospho-MTFR1L were transferred to nitroceullose membranes (BioRad) with a Trans-Blot Turbo and blocked for one hour in Intercept Buffer (Li-COR). Membranes were then incubated in their respective primary antibodies in blocking buffer at 4°C overnight. Blots probing for phospho-MTFR1L we transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes (PVDF, Immobilion) and blocked in 5% fat-free dry milk in TBS-T for 1 hour before primary antibody incubation for four days at 4°C. Membranes were incubated in Li-Cor fluorescence-coupled secondary antibodies for 1 hour at room temperature prior to visualization with a Li-Cor Odyssey Blot Imager.

Cells (4 × 106) were plated on 100 mm tissue-grade culture plates and primed overnight with 1 μg/ml IgE. Cells were stimulated with respective antigen or mock for the indicated times at 37°C in Hank’s buffered saline. Cells were rinsed in cold phosphate-buffered saline and lysed on ice for 20 min with NP-40 lysis buffer (150 nM NaCl, 50 mM Tris, 1% NP-40) in the presence of Halt Protease and Phosphatase inhibitors (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Lysates were cleared by centrifugation at 13,000 × g for 10 min at 4°C. Protein concentrations were determined by BCA assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific), and 25 μg was loaded into polyacrylamide gels. Whole lysates or immunoprecipitated samples were boiled with reducing sample buffer, except for lysates used for the detection of FcεRIγ phosphorylation where nonreducing sample buffer was used to preserve the γ-dimer. Proteins were transferred from the SDS–PAGE gel to nitrocellulose membranes using the iBlot2 system (Life Technologies). Membranes were blocked for 30 min in 3% bovine serum albumin (BSA)/0.1% Tween-20/ tris buffered saline (TBS) and probed overnight with primary antibodies at 4°C. HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies were used for detection and incubated with membranes for 1 h at RT. Membranes were imaged on the Odyssey Blot Imager (Li-Cor). Analysis was performed using ImageStudio software.

Quantitative Protein Determination via SDS-PAGE

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Absorption spectroscopy indicated, via a 260-nm/280-nm ratio, that despite the two steps of affinity purification under high salt concentration and size exclusion chromatography, nucleic acid copurifies with Rep; thus, protein concentration was determined using quantitative SDS-PAGE analysis. The PAGE was quantitated using the Li-Cor Odyssey blot imager equipped with Image Studio software version 5.0. The concentration of Rep (35.8 kDa) was determined by comparing its band intensity to that of carbonic anhydrase (29 kDa; Millipore Sigma) with known concentration.

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.
