EVs (1.4 × 1010 particles) and cell lysates (20 μg of total proteins) were separated in polyacrylamide gel (TGX FastCast Acrylamide Kit, 7.5%, Bio-Rad, #1610171) (TGX FastCast Acrylamide Kit, 12%, Bio-Rad, #1610175) electrophoresis and transferred onto a PVDF membrane (Millipore, #IPVH00010). The antibodies to EV markers: Alix (Sigma-Aldrich, #SAB4200477), TSG101 (Abcam, #ab30871), and CD63 (BD Bioscience, #556019), and antibody to Golgi marker: Golgi Reassembly Stacking Protein 1 (GORASP1) (Sigma-Aldrich, #SAB4100063) were used to detect separated proteins. The membranes were then incubated with anti-rabbit IgG-HRP (Cell Signaling Technology, #7074) or anti-mouse IgG-HRP (Cell Signaling Technology, #7076). Binding of specific antibodies was detected with Western chemiluminescent HRP substrate (Millipore, #WBKLS0500), visualized, and quantified with FUSION SOLO S (Vilber Lourmat). The intensity level of the band corresponding to each molecule was normalized by its intensity in the corresponding cell lysate.

Proteins were extracted from each sample with SDS loading buffer (3% SDS, 15% glycerol, 180 mM Tris-HCl, 4% β-mercaptoethanol). For subcellular fractionation samples, protein concentrations were determined by the BCA protein assay (Pierce, 23250, Thermo Scientific), and equal quantities of proteins were subjected to SDS-PAGE. For immunoisolation samples, equal volumes of SDS loading buffer were added to magnetic isolated beads. Samples were incubated in 75°C for 20 min to better immunoblot transmembrane proteins. Briefly, samples were loaded to 10% SDS-PAGE gels (TGX FastCast Acrylamide Kits, 1610183, Bio-Rad) and transferred to 0.45 mm NC membranes (HATF00010, Millipore) for 2 hr. Membranes were subjected to 5% milk in TBST buffer (Tri-buffered Saline with Tween 20) at room temperature for 1 hr to block non-specific binding. Primary antibodies were prepared in TBST and incubated with membranes at 4°C overnight. Secondary antibodies were either anti-rabbit IgG HRP (A6154, Sigma, 1:5000 dilution) or anti-mouse IgG HRP (715-035-150, Jackson ImmunoResearch, 1:5000 dilution). Final results were visualized using chemiluminescence (Merck Millipore) in e-BLOT Touch Imager (e-BLOT Life Science, Shanghai).

Protein samples were resolved with 12% TGX FastCast acrylamide kits (Bio-Rad 1610175) and then transferred to PVDF membranes (Amersham 10600057). Membranes were blocked using 5% skim milk (BD 232100) in PBST (0.1% Tween 20 in phosphate-buffered saline [PBS]) for 30 min and then incubated with primary antibodies (Supplemental Table S3) diluted in 5% skim milk in PBST. Membranes were incubated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibodies (Supplemental Table S3), and then chemiluminometric signals were detected using ECL (Amersham RPN2232) and C-Digit (Li-cor 3600). Acquired images were processed using Image Studio (Li-cor) and ImageJ software (https://imagej.net/Welcome).

Extracted TSP (10 µg) from both PCPs and Agrobacterium cells was loaded on 10% (w/v) sodium dodecyl sulphate–polyacrylamide gel (TGX™ FastCast™ Acrylamide Kit, Bio-Rad, USA), separated by electrophoresis, and transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane (Whatman® Protran®, Sigma Aldrich). To specifically detect the presence of GFP and DsRed, the western blot was probed with the rabbit polyclonal anti-GFP antibody (ExBio, Czech Republic) at 1:1,000 dilution, and the rabbit polyclonal anti-RFP antibody (MBL International, USA) at 1:1,000 dilution. The secondary antibody used for the detection of both proteins was alkaline phosphatase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (H + L) (Sigma Aldrich) at 1:30,000 dilution. The blots were developed with 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate/nitro blue tetrazolium substrate tablets (Sigma Aldrich). The band intensities were quantified with the ImageJ software (Version 1.48). GFP (Abcam, United Kingdom) and DsRed (Fraunhofer IME, Germany) proteins in the range of 0.005–1.0 mg/mL were used to create the standard curves.

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.
