Human muscle tissue was extracted in: 50 mM Tris pH 6.8, 1% EDTA, 10% SDS, 5% beta-mercaptoethanol, 10% glycerol with protease inhibitors. After the addition of bromophenol blue and after boiling, the extract was loaded, either as a single strip or in formed wells, and subjected to SDS-PAGE using 4 to 12% polyacrylamide gradient gels and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (Protan BA85, Whatman). After blocking non-specific sites with 5% skimmed milk protein, membranes were incubated for 1 hour with monoclonal antibody (1/50), followed by washing and incubation for 1 hour with peroxidase-labelled rabbit anti-mouse immunoglobulins (1/1000, Dakopatts, Denmark). Antibody reacting bands were visualized with West Pico or West Femto chemiluminescent detection systems (Pierce, Thermofisher). Prestained Mr markers were EZ-Run 10–170 kD or PageRuler Plus 10–250 kD (both Thermofisher).

TCF7 was detected with the mixture of antibodies 1D2 and 2E9 (Novus Biologicals, Littleton, CO). The MSI1 protein was detected by monoclonal antibody (EP1302) (Abcam, Cambridge, MA). Human actin was stained by monoclonal antibody AC-15 (ab6276) (Abcam). The cells were lysed in buffers supplemented with a set of inhibitors which included: 2× concentrated complete protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche Diagnostics, Indianopolis, IN), 2 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, and aprotinin (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO). Prestained molecular weight markers EZ-RUN from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Walthman, MA) were employed to determine molecular weights. Proteins were separated on NuPAGE 4–12% Bis-Tris gels, electroblotted to Invitrolon PVDF membrane (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) and visualized with SuperSignal West Dura Chemiluminescent Substrate with (MSI1) or without (TCF7) SuperSignal Western blot enhancer (Thermo Fisher Scientific).

Cells were harvested with accutase treatment when adequate, washed with PBS, lysed and heated at 95 °C for 5 min (Laemmli buffer), 70 °C for 10 min (Bolt sample buffer) or 85 °C for 2 min (Tricine sample buffer). Extracts were separated by SDS-PAGE either on 12.5% gels (EZ-run, Fisher Scientific, Schwerte, Germany), 4–12% Bolt gels (Life Technologies) or 16% Tricine gels (Life Technologies), and proteins were transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes (0.2 μm). Membranes were probed with anti-mouse A1 (rat monoclonal, kindly provided by Marco Herold, WEHI, Melbourne, Australia), anti-human A1 (rabbit polyclonal, kindly provided by Jannie Borst), anti-mouse Mcl-1 (Rockland, Limerick, PA, USA, #600-401-394), anti-human Mcl-1 (BD, Biosciences, Heidelberg, Germany, #559027), anti-mouse Bcl-2 (BD, clone 3F11), anti-Bcl-xL (NEB, Frankfurt, Germany, clone 54H6) or anti-GAPDH (Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany, clone 6C5) or anti-β-actin (Sigma, clone AC-15) antibodies. Proteins were visualized using peroxidase-conjugated anti-rabbit (Sigma), anti-mouse (Dianova), anti-hamster (Dianova) or anti-rat (NEB) antibodies by enhanced chemoluminescence detection (ECL Prime, GE Healthcare, Dornstadt, Germany; SuperSignal West Femto Substrate, Pierce, Fisher Scientific, Schwerte, Germany).

PEGylation of Yeast Enolase

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Aliquots (100 μL) of denatured
yeast enolase (1 mg/mL, 11 μM) were treated with varying concentrations
of TCEP or THPP (1–10 mM) and incubated for 45 min at 25 °C.
2 kDa-PEG maleimide (1 mM) was subsequently added to the enolase solutions
at each phosphine concentration and incubated at 37 °C for 18
h. Samples (15 μL) were taken from each of the reactions and
added to the Laemmli sample buffer (15 μL) and heated (85 °C,
8 min). Aliquots (9 μL) of these solutions were loaded into
a precast gradient gel (4–12% Bis-Tris, Invitrogen) along with
a protein ladder (EZ-Run, Fisher Scientific) and resolved by SDS Page
electrophoresis [MOPS running buffer (Invitrogen), 180 V, 60 min].
The precast gels were stained by the Coomassie solution and destained
using a water/ethanol/acetic acid (16:3:1) solution. The gel was then
scanned using a LI-COR Odyssey CLx to quantify PEGylated enolase (Image
Studio Lite).

Western Blot Protein Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Protein samples were mixed with NuPAGE-LDS sample buffer (Invitrogen) containing 50 mM dithiothreitol (DTT), then denatured by heating to 70°C for 10 min and resolved by electrophoresis on precast 10% Tris–glycine polyacrylamide gels (Novex). Molecular weight markers (SeeBlue Plus2 [Invitrogen] and EZ-Run [Fisher Scientific]) were resolved in parallel to determine protein sizes. Proteins were transferred from gels onto nitrocellulose membranes by using an iBlot dry transfer apparatus (Thermo, Fisher). Membranes were blocked by incubation in 5% Carnation dry milk dissolved in PBS–0.2% Tween 20 (PBST) prior to incubation with primary antibody diluted in milk-PBST solution. Membranes were washed with PBST before incubating with HRP-conjugated secondary antibody diluted in milk-PBST solution. Membranes were washed with PBST and developed using the SuperSignal West Pico chemiluminescent substrate (Pierce). Signal was detected by exposing membranes to BioExcell X-ray film or by using the Azure Series c500 infrared imaging system. Bands of interest were normalized to the loading control, PCNA.

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.
