Briefly, microtiter plates were coated with 500 ng of purified rF1 [provided by the Biotechnology Department at IIBR, produced as described in Holtzman et al. (2006 (link))]. Tested sera were serially diluted in 2-fold dilutions in a final volume of 50 μl and were incubated in the wells for 1 h at 37°C. Alkaline phosphatase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (1/2,000 dilution, Sigma) was used as the 2nd layer for rabbit anti-F1 IgG titer determination. Titers were defined as the reciprocal values of the endpoint serum dilutions that displayed OD405 values 2-fold higher than the normal serum controls.

Cell lysates were prepared by disrupting cell pellets in the Laemmli sample buffer (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA) supplemented with 5% beta-mercaptoethanol (Sigma-Aldrich), and heated at 96°C for 5 min. Samples were then subjected in duplicate to 4–12% gradient SDS-PAGE (Invitrogen) and transferred onto PVDF membranes using BioRad semi-dry transblotters. Membranes were blocked with LiCor blocking buffer (LiCor, Lincoln, NE) for 1 h at room temperature, and probed with primary antibodies (described in Supplementary Table 1) diluted in LiCor blocking buffer containing 0.1% Tween. The membranes were washed twice for 10 min each in PBS with 0.1% Tween (PBST) and then probed with goat anti-mouse or goat anti-rabbit IR-Dye 670- or 800 cw-labeled secondary antisera diluted in LiCor blocking buffer containing 0.1% Tween and 0.01% SDS for 1 h at room temperature. The probed membranes were washed twice for 10 min in TBST, placed in water, and imaged using a LiCor Odyssey scanner. Boxes were manually placed around each band of interest, and near-infrared fluorescent values for raw intensity, with intra-lane background subtracted, were obtained using Odyssey 3.0 analytical software (LiCor).

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.
