The assay was according to the lipid-binding analysis method by Munnik and Wierzchowiecka (2013) (link). Ceremides, ganglioside GM3, galactocerebrosides, sulfatide, D-sphingosine, L-α-phosphatidylinositol and L-phosphatidylinositol (Sigma-Aldrich) were suspended in resuspension buffer (CHCl3/MeOH/H2O=20:9:1, v/v), and diluted to gradient concentration by spotting buffer (CHCl3/MeOH/50 mM HCl/Ponceau S=250:500:200:2, v/v). The lipids were spotted on PVDF membrane strips and dried at room temperature in the dark. The membranes were blocked in fat blot buffer (50 mM Tris–HCl, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.5) containing 3% fatty acid-free BSA for 1 h at room temperature, and incubated with SMMC-7721 cell lysates (protein 5 μg/ml) in blocking buffer-0.1% Tween overnight at 4°C. After three washes with fat blot buffer-0.1% Tween, the membranes were incubated with anti-SIN3B antibody and goat anti-rabbit IgG HRP secondary antibody (Jackson ImmunoReseach Lab, Inc.). The blots were visualized using Immunobilon Western (Millipore).

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.
