Protein molecular mass standards

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific

Protein molecular-mass standards are a set of proteins with known molecular masses used to determine the molecular weights of unknown proteins in a sample. They are commonly used in Western blot analysis and other protein separation techniques.

Western Blot Analysis of ER Stress Proteins

Thirty micrograms of different protein fractions from rat tissues were subjected to 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Proteins were transferred to Immobilon polyvinylidene difluoride transfer membranes (Millipore, Burlington, MA, USA) and blocked for 1 h at room temperature with 5% non-fat milk solution in 0.1% Tween-20-Tris-buffered saline (TBS). Membranes were then incubated overnight with the primary antibody in 0.1% Tween-20-TBS with 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA) at 4 °C. Detection was achieved using the enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) kit for horseradish peroxidase (HRP) (Amersham GE Healthcare Europe GmbH, Barcelona, Spain). To confirm the uniformity of protein loading, the blots were incubated with β-actin or β-tubulin antibody (Sigma-Aldrich, Saint Louis, MO, USA) as a control. The size of the detected proteins was estimated using protein molecular-mass standards (Invitrogen, Life Technologies). Primary antibodies for phosphor- and total-IRE1, ATF6α, phosphor- and total-PERK, and XBP1s proteins were obtained from Santa Cruz Biotechnologies (Dallas, TX, USA) and AbCam (Cambridge, UK) as described previously [32 (link)].

Thirty micrograms of different protein fractions from rat tissues were subjected to 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Proteins were transferred to Immobilon polyvinylidene difluoride transfer membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) and blocked for 1 h at room temperature with 5% non-fat milk solution in 0.1% Tween-20-Tris-buffered saline (TBS). Membranes were then incubated overnight with the primary antibody raised against Nrf2 or HO-1, in 0.1% Tween-20-TBS with 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA) at 4ºC.

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.
