Quantifying Cellular Stress Response Proteins
Western Blot Analysis of Protein Signaling
Affinity Purification of Transgenic Mouse Brain Proteins
whole brains without cerebellums from wild-type (negative control)
or BAC transgenic mice (ages from P14 to P17) were used for affinity
purification. The P2 fraction was cross-linked by DSP, and the membrane-bound
proteins were extracted as described previously. The cleared extraction
was incubated with monoclonal anti-FLAG-M2 magnetic beads (100 μL,
Sigma) at 4 °C overnight on a rotator. Anti-FLAG beads were pelleted
by a magnetic rack and washed five times with TBS containing 1% Triton
X-100. The bound proteins were eluted with 3×FLAG peptide according
to the manufacturer’s instruction (Sigma). The purified complexes
were resolved on a SDS-PAGE gel. 10% of the complexes were used for
immunoblot analysis, and 90% were used for SYPRO Ruby staining (Bio-Rad).
Protein bands were visualized using a UV light, and the image was
taken using an LAS-1000plus system (Fujifilm). The whole lane was
excised into 21 fractions and stored at −80 °C for further
mass spectrometry analysis.
Quantification of Smad1/5 Phosphorylation
Triton X-100, 0.1% SDS, complete protease inhibitor mixture (Roche, Basel, Switzerland), phosphatase inhibitor mixture (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA)] and centrifuged at 15,000 rpm for 5 minutes at 4 ºC. Lysate proteins (20µg) were fractionated by 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and separated proteins were transferred to a polyvinylidenedifluoride (PVDF) filter (Immobilon, Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). The blots were blocked to reduce nonspecific signals with 1% bovine serum albumin in TBS-Tween. PVDF filters were probed with the following antibodies (Cell Signaling Technology, USA) shown in Table 1. Immune complexes were labeled with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated mouse or rabbit antibodies (BIOSOURCE International, Camarillo, CA, USA) and visualized by enhanced chemiluminescence reagents (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, NJ, USA) and a LAS-1000 Plus system (Fujifilm, Tokyo, Japan). To evaluate the difference of Smad1/5 phosphorylation status between the PS and PAMPS Cultures, the level of p-Smad1/5 was normalized by total Smad1 using image analysis software (NIH ImageJ 1.44p; National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA).
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.
