Alpha tubulin antibody

Manufactured by Santa Cruz Biotechnology
Sourced in United States

The Alpha-tubulin antibody is a laboratory research tool used to detect and study alpha-tubulin, a protein component of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells. It can be used in various immunoassay techniques, such as Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunocytochemistry, to visualize and analyze the distribution and expression of alpha-tubulin in biological samples.

Cells were washed with ice‐cold PBS twice and harvested in PBS. One‐fourth of the cells were transferred to a new Eppendorf. PBS was removed after centrifuging the cells at 1,500 g for 3 min. The total lysate was collected by adding a RIPA lysis buffer (10 mM Tris, pH 7; 150 mM NaCl; 1% Triton X‐100; 1% Na deoxycholate; 1% SDS; 1× protease inhibitor) into one‐fourth of the cells. The remaining cells were lysed by an NP‐40 lysis buffer (1× TBS; 0.5% NP‐40; 1× protease inhibitor). The suspension, containing cytosolic proteins, was transferred into a new Eppendorf. The remaining pellets were washed with an NP‐40 lysis buffer twice and then lysed by a RIPA lysis buffer as a nuclear fraction. Alpha‐tubulin antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) was used as a cytosolic marker, while antibody against Lamin B2 (Millipore) was used as a nuclear marker. All experiments were repeated three times. Histograms were the means ± SD from the three independent experiments.

Cells were seeded in 6-well plates at a density of 1×105 cells per well. After 24h, cells were starved in starvation medium (DMEM or RPMI media supplemented with 1% penicillin/streptomycin/glutamine, and 20 mM HEPES). Cells were lysed in ice-cold RIPA buffer supplemented with protease (cOmplete, Sigma #4693159001) and phosphatase inhibitors (PhosSTOP, Sigma #4906845001). After a 10 min centrifugation at 4°C, supernatants were supplemented with 5X Laemmli’s sample buffer and were boiled for 10 min. SDS PAGE was performed in with in NuPAGE Bis-Tris gels (Invitrogen) using MES buffer (ThermoFisher #NP0002), and blots were transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes using the BioRad Trans-Blot Semi-Dry Transfer Cell. Transferred blots were then blocked with Odyssey blocking buffer (LI-COR #927–4000) and antibody stained using the Freedom Rocker liquid handling system. Western blots were imaged on a LI-COR Odyssey imager, and images were quantified using ImageJ. Phospho-Erk antibody was obtained from Cell Signaling Technologies (#4370), alpha- tubulin antibody was obtained from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (Santa Cruz, #23948,1:1000), and IRDye conjugated secondary antibodies (#926–3221, #926–68020) were obtained from LI-COR.

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.
