HEK293 cells were grown in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). Transient transfections were performed with Transfectin reagent (Bio-Rad, 1703352). The lung cancer cell lines A549 (ATCC CCL-185) and H1666 (ATCC CRL-5885) were grown in Roswell Park Memorial Institute media (RPMI), the melanoma cell line A2058 (ATCC CRC-11147) in DMEM. The media was supplemented with 10% FBS and 10 mM N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N-ethanesulfonic acid (Hepes). Quail embryo fibroblasts (QEF) were grown in Avian cell culture medium. DNA transfection was mediated using the calcium phosphate method. Primary antibodies used were the mouse anti-Rluc antibody directed against Rluc-F[1] (Chemicon, #MAB4410), mouse anti–HA-tag (Covance, MMS-10P), mouse anti-BRAF (Santa Cruz, F-7: sc-5284), mouse anti-MEK1/2 (Cell Signaling, 4684S), rabbit phospho-MEK1/2 (Ser217/221) (Cell Signaling, 9154), and rabbit anti–P-ERK1/2 (Cell Signaling, 9101).

Example 16

For immunoblot analysis experiments, cells rinsed trice with ice-cold phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) were lysed on ice, with ice-cold TNE buffer, supplemented with Halt protease and phosphatase inhibitors (Thermo Scientific), and centrifuged at 15,000 g for 15 minutes to collect whole-cell lysates. Protein concentration was measured with the BCA protein assay (Pierce). Thirty micrograms of total protein per sample were loaded into 4%-12% NuPAGE Bis-Tris gradient gels (Life Technologies) and separated by SDS-PAGE. Proteins were transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes. The following antibodies were used for immunoblotting: mouse monoclonal anti-KRAS (Sigma WH0003845M1, clone 3B10-2F2), mouse anti-RAS (Thermo 1862335), rabbit anti-pERK1/2 (T202/Y204; Cell Signaling Technology 4370), mouse anti-ERK1/2 (Cell Signaling Technology 4696), rabbit anti-p-MEK1/2 (S217/221; Cell Signaling Technology 9154), mouse anti-MEK1/2 (Cell Signaling Technology 4694), rabbit anti-p-AKT (S473; Cell Signaling Technology 4060), mouse anti-AKT (Cell Signaling Technology 2920). Vinculin (rabbit anti-vinculin, Cell Signaling Technology 4650) was used as a loading control. Primary antibodies were detected with fluorescence-conjugated (LI-COR) secondary antibodies.

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.
