Using a lysis buffer (0.1 % SDS, 1 %TritonX‑100, 1.5 M, 1 mM EDTA, 20 mM Tris‑HCl (pH 7.4), 1 % phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride, and 1.5 M NaCl), the cells were lysed and total protein was purified through a 16,000 g centrifugation at 4 °C for 10 min. Using the DC protein test from Bio-Rad, the protein concentration was calculated. A constant voltage of 80 mV for 30 min, followed by 120 mV for 120 min, was used to separate 30 µg of protein from each group by electrophoresis, which was subsequently transferred to PVDF membranes using the 100 mV for 120 min Bio-Rad TransBlot system (Bio Rad Laboratories, Inc.). 5 % non-fat dried milk dissolved in 10 mM Tris HCl, 0.2 % Tween-20 (TBST), and 0.15 M NaCl were then used to block the membrane for 2 hours at room temperature. The membrane was incubated with the primary antibodies against Bax, Bcl-2, caspase-3, MMP-3, MMP-13, and β-Actin for a whole night at 4 °C. The membrane was incubated with m-IgGκBP-HRP and mouse anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibodies at room temperature for 2 hours after being rinsed with TBST three times for 5 minutes. The membrane was treated with an ECL chemiluminescence kit and tested with Mini-PROTEAN Tetra Vertical Electrophoresis Cell (Bio-Rad) for analysis. ImageJ v1.8.0 (National Institutes of Health) software was used to densitometry quantification of the images.

Protein samples were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gels electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE, 10%) under reducing conditions [22 (link)]. For Western blotting, samples (30–40 μg of protein) were separated by SDS-PAGE and electro-blotted (35 min, 45 V) in a Bio-Rad transblot system onto nitrocellulose membrane (0.2 μm, Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA) for 90 min. The transfer buffer contained 48 mM Tris, 39 mM glycine, 0.0375% (w/v) SDS and 20% (v/v) methanol. The nitrocellulose was saturated with 5% (w/v) non-fat powdered milk in TBS-T, washed three times with TBS-T, and incubated overnight with 1:200 dilution rabbit anti-Tc/NICT-1 sera. The sheets were washed three times with TBS-T, and immunoreactive proteins were localized using HRP-anti-rabIgG (1:5000) for 1 h at 25 °C. Proteins were detected by chemiluminescence using the SuperSignal West Pico substrate kit (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, USA). Revealed bands were quantified by densitometry using Image J (http://rsbweb.nih.gov, accessed on 21 september 2020).

OTU activity towards cellular conjugated ISG15 was determined using purified OTUs and cell lysates. Cell lysates containing conjugated human ISG15 were obtained by treating Huh7 cells with 1000 IU of IFN-β for two days before harvesting in triton lysis buffer (1% triton X-100, 20 mM Tris-HCl, 2.5 mM MgCl2). Alternatively, lysates were obtained by transfecting HEK293T cells with plasmids expressing V5-tagged sheep or human ISG15 (Genscript), and human Ube1L, UbecH8, and HERC5 using Trans-IT-LT1 (Mirus). Lysates were clarified by centrifugation (20 min at 13,000 rpm) and incubated for 20 min at room temperature with purified OTU. Samples were mixed with 4x Laemmli buffer and boiled at 95°C for 8 minutes. Proteins were separated on 4–12% Bis-Tris SDS-PAGE gels and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes using a trans-blot system (BioRad). ISG15 was detected using an ISG15 antibody (Proteintech # 15981-1-AP) or a V5 tag antibody (ThermoFisher Scientific #R960CUS). Tubulin was used as loading control marker (T5169, Sigma). Primary antibodies were detected with SuperSignal West Dura Fast Western blot kits (Thermo Fisher). Protein bands were visualized using a ChemiDoc MP system (BioRad).

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.
