Total soluble protein (TSP) was extracted as described above for fluorometric assays. A protein sample (25 µg) from each studied line was separated by 12% SDS-PAGE and transferred onto an NC membrane (BioRad, Hercules, USA). Rabbit anti-β-glucuronidase (diluted 1:2000, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, USA) polyclonal antibodies served as the primary antibodies. Anti-rabbit IgG conjugated to alkaline phosphatase was used as the secondary antibody (1:4000, Pierce, Waltham, USA). Blots were treated with nitroblue tetrazolium and 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate (BCIP) for visualization.

Protein was isolated using custom made RIPA buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS, 1mM EDTA, 1% Triton x-100) supplemented with protease inhibitor (Pierce, 78442). Concentration of isolated protein was measured using a microBCA kit (Pierce, 23227) and 25μg was loaded on a 4-12% Bis-Tris protein gel (Invitrogen, NP0321BOX). Protein size was analyzed using PageRuler Prestained Protein Ladder (Thermo 26616). Membranes were blocked in 5% non-fat milk in TBS-T. Antibodies used included rabbit anti-ΔNp63 antibody (Cell Signaling E6Q3O), mouse anti-p53 (BD Biosciences 554293), mouse anti-TAp63 (BioLegend 938102) rabbit anti-GAPDH antibody (Cell Signaling D16H11), and rabbit anti-β-Glucuronidase (Sigma Aldrich G5545).

Extraction and Analysis of Total Soluble Proteins

To prepare total soluble protein, duckweed plants (0.5 g) were ground in liquid nitrogen. The ground material was resuspended in four volumes of extraction buffer containing 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 10 mM EDTA, pH 8.0, 10 % (v/ v) glycerol, 1 % (w/v) SDS, 30 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, 4 lg/ml aprotinin, and 4 lg/ml leupeptin. Total proteins were extracted for 20 min at 4 °C, then centrifuged for 10 min at 16,000 g, 4 °C and the supernatant was taken for further analysis. Protein concentration was measured by DC protein assay (BioRad, USA).
Total proteins (25 lg) from each transgenic line were separated by 12 % SDS-PAGE and transferred onto an NC membrane (Amersham). Rabbit anti-b-glucuronidase (diluted 1:2000, Sigma, USA) and anti-M2e (1:1000, Abcam, UK) polyclonal antibodies served as the primary antibodies. Anti-rabbit IgG conjugated to alkaline phosphatase was used as the secondary antibody (1:4000, Pierce, USA). Blots were treated with nitroblue tetrazolium and 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate (BCIP) for visualization.

Quantification of Recombinant Enzyme Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total soluble protein (TSP) was extracted as described above in extraction buffer without SDS. The protein samples were serially diluted in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) (0.25, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 lg TSP per well) and placed into a 96-well microtiter plate, using b-glucuronidase from E. coli (Sigma) as the reference standard. The plates were incubated for 2 h at room temperature, washed three times with washing buffer for 5 min each [PBS plus 0.05 % (v/v) Tween-20] and blocked with blocking buffer (PBS containing 2 % w/v bovine serum albumin and 0.05 % Tween-20) for 1 h at 37 °C. The plates were then incubated with rabbit anti-bglucuronidase (diluted 1:1000, Sigma) polyclonal antibody overnight at 4 °C. After washing, the plates were incubated with anti-rabbit IgG conjugated to alkaline phosphatase (1:3000, Pierce) for 1 h at 37 °C. The plates were washed and developed by the addition of 100 ll per well of TMB Peroxidase EIA substrate (BioRad) for 30 min at room temperature. The plate was read at 405 nm and the amount of plant-expressed M130-b-glucuronidase was estimated based on reference b-glucuronidase standards.
To determine the expression level of M130-b-glucuronidase in the transgenic lines, three samples of duckweed per line were analyzed, and their average expression level calculated. All measurements were performed in duplicate.

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.
