We used Duolink in situ PLA mouse/rabbit (Sigma, DUO92101) to evaluate two proteins interaction (proximity <40 nm), using previously described protocol32 (link). In brief, adult cardiomyocytes were fixed with 4% formaldehyde for 10 min, then permeabilized in 0.1% Triton X-100 for 15 min, and blocking was carried out for 30 min at 37 °C. Subsequently, primary antibodies that recognize the two proteins of interest were incubated overnight at 4 °C [rabbit anti-SERCA2 (Cell Signaling, 4388; 1/200) and mouse anti-GSK3β (Abcam, ab-93926; 1/200)]. Ligation of PLA probes for 30 min, amplification and detection were performed according to manufacturer’s instructions. Detection was carried out by confocal microscopy65 (link). A maximum intensity projection created an output image from Z stack performed at 0.5 μm depth. A total of 6–11 cells were counted in each experiment (n = 3) for quantification. We used ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health) to quantify the dots corresponding to the positive interaction of the two targeted proteins of interest.

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.
