Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Rabbit polyclonal ac-K2-HMGN2 antibody was made by New England Peptides. The antibody was raised against an acetylated N-terminal HMGN2 peptide (P(KAc)RKAEGDAC), followed by affinity purification. To ensure specificity, a blocking peptide (P(KAc)RKAEGDAC) and a non-acetyl blocking peptide (PKRKAEGDAC) were used to ensure acetyl-specific interaction. Antibodies used for western blotting; Tubulin (Invitrogen, 322500, 1:2000); HDAC6 (Abcam, ab47181, 1:500); HMGN2 (Millipore, 07-252, 1:500; Cell Signaling, #9437, 1:2000) pan-acetyl lysine (Millipore, AB3879, 1:500); CISH (Santa Cruz, sc-15344, 1:500); CyclinD1 (Santa Cruz, sc-718, 1:500); CEBPβ (Santa Cruz, sc-150, 1:500); PARP/Cleaved PARP (Cell Signaling, #9542, 1:500); ac-K2-HMGN2 (1:50); acetyl-α-Tubulin (Cell Signaling, #5335, 1:500). Secondary antibody was used at a dilution of 1:1000 for all antibodies except Tubulin, which was 1:2000. Antibodies used for IHC: CyclinD1 (Santa Cruz, sc-718, 1:1500); acetyl-Tubulin (Cell Signaling, D20G3, 1:100); ac-K2-HMGN2 (1:500).

Cells were solubilized in ice-cold RIPA buffer (Invitrogen) supplemented with complete protease inhibitor tablets (Roche, Basel, Switzerland). 40 μg of total protein was resolved by SDS-PAGE and transferred to PVDF membranes (Millipore, Burlington, MA, USA). Membranes were blotted with antibodies against HDAC6 (Abcam, Cambridge, UK) and α-tubulin (Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA) and HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies. The protein bands were visualized by the ECL system according to the manufacturer’s instructions and exposed to x-ray film.

Construction and Use of GFP-HDAC6 Expression Plasmid

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The GFP-HDAC6 expression plasmid was constructed by cloning human HDAC6 cDNA into the pEGFPN1 vector, and the catalytically inactive mutant was generated by site-directed mutagenesis as described (Zhou et al., 2009 (link); Li et al., 2014 (link)). Triethylammonium bicarbonate, formaldehyde-H2 (28% in H2O), sodium cyanoborohydride, ammonium hydroxide, trifluoroacetic acid, 4’,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), fluorescein-phalloidin, trichostatin A (TSA), and sodium butyrate (NaB) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. Formaldehyde-D2 (28% in D2O, Cambridge Isotope Laboratory), formic acid and acetonitrile (Merck), and C18 desalting microcolumns (Nest Group) were from the indicated sources. Tubacin was obtained from Stuart Schreiber (Harvard Medical School). Antibodies against α-tubulin, acetylated α-tubulin, and β-actin (Sigma-Aldrich), HDAC6, HDAC7, HDAC9, Hsp90, Prx I, MYH9, Hsc70, and DNAJA1 (Abcam), HDAC3, HDAC4, HDAC5, HDAC11, and SIRT2 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology), acetylated lysine (Cell Signaling Technology), and GFP (Roche), horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies (Amersham Biosciences), and rhodamine-conjugated secondary antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories) were obtained from the indicated sources.

Confocal IF microscopy was performed with a Zeiss LSM 510 confocal microscope using the 63X oil objective as previously described (see Supporting Methods). Briefly, unstained liver sections were deparaffinized and rehydrated, boiled in antigen unmasking solution, and quenched with Image-IT FX signal enhancer (Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY). Normal human cholangiocytes and CCA cells lines were washed with PBS and fixed in ice cold methanol for 5 min at −20°C. Slides were blocked for 1 hour at room temperature and then incubated overnight at 4°C with acetylated α-tubulin (1:500, Sigma-Aldrich), γ-tubulin (1:500, Sigma-Aldrich), and/or HDAC6 (1:100, Abcam) antibodies followed by 1 hour incubation with fluorescent secondary antibodies (1:100). Nuclei were stained with 4′,6-diamino-2-phenylindole (DAPI; Prolong Gold w/DAPI, Invitrogen).

Whole-cell lysates were collected in the Laemelli sample buffer as previously described [18 (link)]; nuclear and cytoplasmic fractions were isolated as previously described [19 (link)]. Equal volumes of lysate were blotted and quantified as previously described [2 (link),18 (link),19 (link),20 (link)]. Three pairs of lysates were used to determine the levels of detyrosinated α-tubulin (Abcam, Cambridge, UK), HDAC6, ATAT1 (Abcam), SIRT2 (CST), TGM2 (CST), and HSP90α (CST) expression levels. Whole-cell lysates were collected from BoM-MDA-231 cells following growth under standard culture conditions and blotted. For all western blots conducted using cytoplasmic and whole-cell lysate, β-actin (CST) was used as a loading control. Lamin B1 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA) was utilized as a loading control for western blots involving nuclear protein fractions.

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.
