Whole-cell lysates were prepared from cell lines with RIPA lysis buffer kit (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA), and the protein concentrations were quantified using a Bio-Rad protein assay (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA). Whole-cell proteins (30 μg) were separated on 8% SDS-polyacrylamide gels and transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes (Amersham Corp., Arlington Heights, IL). The membranes were then probed with antibodies against the proteins of H3F3b, BAG-2, Paip2 (Santa Cruz, Santa Cuz, CA), BMI-1 (Millipore, Temecula, CA), EGFR, Bax, and β-actin (Sigma), respectively, for 24 hours. Moreover, membranes were also probed with specific cell cycle, apoptotic and anti-apoptotic antibodies against the following proteins: cyclin A, cyclin B, cyclin D1, p53, caspase 3, caspase 9, NFkb MDM2, BCL2, and BCLxl (Sigma).

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.
