Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was separated on a 1.2 % (w/v) formaldehyde agarose gel and then blotted onto Hybond N+ nylon membranes (Amersham Biosciences) by semi-dry transfer (Bio-Rad,
Trans-Blot SD Semi-Dry Transfer Cell). DNA probes were ordered from Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT, San Diego, CA) with digoxigenin incorporated at 3′end. For ACTIN we used the RNA probe provided in the DIG Northern Starter Kit (Roche). Membranes were hybridized overnight using ULTRAhyb-Oligo Buffer (Ambion) at 37 or 42 °C with probes. Visualization was done by X-Ray film using CDP-Star reagents (Roche). X-Ray film was scanned and saved as jpeg files. Brightness and contrast was increased by 20 % for ease of visualization.

Immunoblotting Analysis of Protein Ubiquitination

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell lysates were prepared using RIPA lysis buffer (Pierce) containing a proteinase inhibitor cocktail (Roche Diagnostics). A total of 30 μg protein extracts were quantified and then subjected to electrophoresis on a 12% SDS-PAGE gel. The proteins were transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes (Amersham Biosciences) and blocked in Tris-buffered saline (TBS) containing 2% bovine serum albumin (BSA). The specific antibodies used including anti-FLAG (Cell Signaling Technology), anti-USP15 (Santa Cruz), anti-K48-linkage Specific Polyubiquitin (Cell Signaling Technology), anti-ubiquitin (Cell Signaling Technology), anti-DDB1(Cell Signaling Technology), anti-USP5 (Santa Cruz), and anti-β-actin(Sigma Aldrich). Proteins were detected by addition of alkaline phosphatase (AP)-conjugated secondary antibody. Visualization of the immunoreactive proteins was performed by addition of CDP STAR reagents (Roche). Densitometry analysis of band signals was carried out using Image J software and the levels of HBx protein in cells transfected with pHBx-FLAG + pUSP15-myc were expressed as the relative intensity (RI) to that in the empty vector control pUSP5-myc or pHBx-FLAG after normalization to β-actin.

Protein (30 μg) was subjected to 12% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and electrophoretically transferred to a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane (Millipore, Billerica, MA). Protein blots were incubated separately with antibodies against Dicer1 (No. 3363, 1:500, Cell Signaling Technology, Beverly, MA), FABP1 (HPA028275, 1:100, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), or β-actin (1:4000, Sigma-Aldrich), probed with the appropriate alkaline phosphatase-conjugated secondary antibody, and detected using chemiluminescence. Immunoreactive protein bands were visualized by adding CDP-Star reagents (Roche Diagnostics, GmbH). Band signal intensities were quantified using Quantity One densitometric software (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA).

Cell fractionation was performed as described previously (20 (link)). Total RNA was extracted (Nucleospin RNAII; Takara Bio) and poly(A)+ RNA was purified (NucleoTrap mRNA Mini kit; Takara Bio) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The RNA samples were loaded on 1.5% gels (NorthernMax-Gly Kit; Life Technologies), transferred to Hybond N+ nylon membranes (GE Healthcare) and probed with internally DIG-labeled sequences following pre-hybridization in ULTRAhyb hybridization buffer (Ambion). DIG-labeled RNA probes were prepared from template DNA amplified by specific primers (Supplementary Table S2) using a DIG Northern Starter Kit (Roche).

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.
