Cells were collected, centrifuged, and re-suspended in radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) buffer plus protease inhibitors. The cells were then incubated in RIPA for 15 min at 4°C and centrifuged at 4°C for 15 min. Protein concentrations were determined using a Bradford protein assay. The samples were then resuspended in 4× lithium dodecyl sulfate sample buffer and denatured. Protein samples were electrophoresed on 4–20% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) gels and then transferred to nitrocellulose membranes in transfer buffer (20% methanol, 11% glycine, and 3.4% Tris) at 100 V. The membranes were blocked with 5% milk in Tris-buffered saline—0.1% Tween (TBST) at room temperature for 45 min. The membranes were then incubated overnight in 5% milk in TBST at 4°C with primary antibodies. Membranes were subsequently washed with TBST and exposed to horse radish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies in 5% milk in TBST at room temperature for 1 hr. The membranes were developed and enhanced using an enhanced chemiluminescent kit.

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.
