Plasma Membrane Protein Extraction from Soleus Muscle

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Plasma membrane protein of the soleus muscle was extracted using a plasma membrane protein extraction kit (Catalog number K268-50, BioVision Inc., USA) and following the manufacturer’s protocols and description [11 (link)]. The BioVision kit was specifically designed to purify the plasma membrane proteins, which can be utilized in a variety of applications, such as Western blotting, 2-D gels, and enzyme analyses. Briefly, the muscle tissue (100 mg) was homogenized on ice in Homogenizing Buffer with 1 mM phenyl methanesulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) until completely lysed (30–50 times). The homogenate was centrifuged at 700×g for 10 min and then the supernatant was centrifuged at 14 000×g for 30 min at 4°C. The supernatant (the cytosol fraction) was collected and resuspended in the Upper-Phase Solution with 1 mM PMSF, then we added the Lower Phase Solution, incubated it on ice for 5 min, and centrifuged it at 1000×g for 5 min at 4°C. The upper phase was carefully collected, then centrifuged at 14 000×g for 10 min at 4°C. The resulting pellet, which contained the plasma membrane protein, was determined with BCA protein assay and was stored at −80°C for subsequent Western blotting.

Cell fractionation was performed as described previously [11 (link)]. LPS-primed cells were treated with MSU for 6 h. Lysates from LPS-primed MSU-treated cells and control cells (without LPS and MSU treatments) were obtained and separated into cytosolic and plasma membrane fractions using the Plasma Membrane Protein Extraction Kit (BioVision, Milpitas, CA, USA, Cat# K268-50) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Each fraction was subjected to 7.5% SDS-PAGE and analyzed by IB. Na+/K+-ATPase and β-actin were used as markers of the plasma membrane and cytosolic subcellular fraction, respectively.

Total homogenates were obtained from HEK293 cells using standard methods (Zhou et al., 1998 (link)). Blots were probed with primary antibodies against Kv11.1. Chemiluminescent detection was performed with substrate reagents from Pierce Biotechnology. Densitometric analysis was performed with Image for Windows software (V. Beta 4.0.2; Scion). The expression level of Kv11.1 protein was monitored using Western blotting analyses. HEK293 cells expressing KCNH2-G572S were lysed, and the total proteins (TP) were extracted. Moreover, the total protein membrane (PM) was purified using a plasma membrane protein extraction kit according to the manufacturer's instructions (Biovision, Inc. USA). TP or PM (150 μg) per sample was separated by 10% SDS-PAGE and blotted onto nitrocellulose membrane (Stratagene, La Jolla, CA). Subsequently, hERG protein was detected using primary antibodies against Actin (Affinity Reagents), the specific polyclonal rabbit anti-hERG antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, CA) and goat anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 700 (Molecular Probes, Eugene, OR, dilution 1:2000). Densitometry and the Scion Image Software (Scion, Frederick, MD) were used to quantify the band densities. All data were normalized against Actin (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.
