Sharp pre stained protein standard

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific

The Sharp Pre-stained Protein Standard is a molecular weight marker used to estimate the molecular weights of proteins in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) experiments. It consists of a mixture of pre-stained proteins with known molecular weights, which can be easily visualized during the electrophoresis process.

Samples were prepared by adding loading buffer (Bio-Rad) to samples (2:1) and heating at 95°C for 5 min. If denaturation was required, loading buffer + 5% β-mercaptoethanol was used. 10-μL samples including Novex Sharp Pre-stained Protein Standard were loaded onto Bis-Tris 10% ready-made gels (both Invitrogen). The gel was run in an XCell SureLock Mini-Cell (Invitrogen) at 200 V for 1 hr in MOPS buffer (50 mM 3-(N-morpholino)propanesulfonic acid, 50 mM Tris Base, 0.1% SDS, and 1 mM EDTA [pH 7.7]). Gels were stained with EZBlue according to the manufacturer’s instructions to visualize bands. Images of gels were taken with a Hewlett Packard (Newcastle, UK) scanner.

For western blot analysis, cell lysates were separated on 4–12% SDS polyacrylamide gradient gels (Invitrogen). Proteins were blotted onto polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes (Amersham Biosciences). HIF-1α protein was detected using a HIF-1α specific monoclonal antibody (BD Transduction Laboratories) at a dilution of 1∶250. HIF-2α protein was detected using a HIF-2α specific polyclonal antibody (Novus Biologicals) at a dilution of 1∶1000. Anti-β-actin antibody served as a loading control. Binding of the antibodies was visualized by binding of a horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-mouse IgG antibody (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech), and subsequently enhanced using chemiluminescence (Chemiluminescent Peroxidase Substrate), according to the manufactureŕs instructions. Novex Sharp Pre-stained Protein Standard (Invitrogen) was used as molecular weight marker.

Protein Hydrolysis Profiling of Hoki Roe

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
One dimensional sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (1D SDS-PAGE) was used to display the protein hydrolysis profiles of hydrolysed hoki roe homogenate protein, using Bolt gradient (4–12 %) Bis-Tris gels (Ryder et al., 2015 (link)). An aliquot (20 µL) of a protein containing sample was added to 7.6 µL Bolt LDS sample buffer containing lithium dodecyl sulphate (LDS) at pH 9.5 and 3.0 µL Bolt™ sample reducing agent containing 500 mM dithiothreitol (DTT). All Bolt reagents were purchased from Invitrogen Life Technologies, Thermo Scientific, Auckland, New Zealand. A programmable Thermal Cycler (Perkin-Elmer, USA) was used to incubate the samples for 5 min at 70 °C, then cooled before loading in gel lanes. Novex Sharp Pre-Stained protein standard (Invitrogen) was loaded in one lane. The electrophoresis was carried out at room temperature in 1 × Bolt MES SDS running buffer for 35 min at 165 V. After electrophoresis, the gel was washed with milli-Q Type 1 water four times, each for 10 min, and then stained overnight with gentle shaking in 20 mL SimplyBlue SafeStain (Invitrogen) followed by destaining in water, and an image was captured with a Canon CanoScan LiDE 600F scanner.

Snake Venom Protein Separation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The proteins from snake venom (3.3 µg) were separated by a 4%–12% Bis-Tris Plus Gel electrophoresis system. The samples were prepared under non-reducing conditions and electrophoresed at a constant voltage according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The protein molecular weight marker (Novex® Sharp Pre-stained Protein Standard, 3.5–260 kDa) was loaded at the same volume as the samples in every gel. After electrophoresis, the gels were soaked in 0.1% Coomassie Brilliant Blue solution containing 50% methanol and 10% acetic acid and shaken for 1 h at room temperature. Subsequently, the staining solution was replaced by destaining buffer (40% methanol and 10% acetic acid) to remove the residual dye until the gel became transparent again. All experiments were repeated at least three times.

Samples for SDS–PAGE analysis of the purification progress were prepared using 2× Laemmli sample buffer (Bio-Rad). Samples for analysis via SDS–PAGE followed by western immunoblotting were loaded onto a 4–12% Bis–Tris NuPAGE gel (Novex), along with Sharp Pre-stained protein standard (Novex) and run at 200V in 1× MES SDS running buffer (NuPAGE). Samples for SDS–PAGE analysis were loaded onto an any-kD Mini Protean TGX Stain-free protein gel (Bio-Rad), along with Precision plus unstained marker (Bio-Rad) and run at 300 V in 1× Tris/Glycine/SDS buffer (Bio-Rad). any-kD Mini Protean TGX Stain-free protein gels were visualized using the Chemidoc MP system (Bio-Rad). The loaded sample volume ranged between 15 and 20 µl.

SPA-tagged Protein Detection Protocol

The SPA-tagged strains were grown in the respective growth medium used in ribosome profiling experiments, and harvested. Whole cells were resuspended in tricine sample buffer (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) and heated at 95° for 10 min. The total protein (equivalent to the number of cells at OD600 0.05) was separated on a 16.5% tricine gel (Bio-Rad) and transferred to a PVDF membrane (Bio-Rad) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The SPA-tagged protein was detected using a monoclonal anti-FLAG M2-alkaline phosphatase-conjugated antibody (Sigma-Aldrich, Saint Louis, MO) and CDP Star chemiluminescent substrate (Sigma-Aldrich) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The Novex sharp prestained protein standard (Novex, Carlsbad, CA) was used as a size marker.

Samples were size-separated by SDS-PAGE using Novex 4-12% BIS-TRIS gradient gels and MOPS SDS running buffer (Life Technologies), or homemade 8% acrylamide gels and TRIS-glycine running buffer. Subsequently, proteins were transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (Amersham Biosciences) using a submarine system (Life Technologies). Sharp Pre-stained Protein Standard (Novex) was used as a size indicator for figure 1, and SeeBlue® Plus2 Protein Standard (Life Technologies) was used as a size indicator for figures 2-6. Note that SeeBlue® Plus2 migrates differently depending on buffer conditions used, as documented on the manufacturer’s website. Ponceau-S staining and immunostaining were performed as described previously (38 (link)).

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.
