Trans blot turbo western transfer system

Manufactured by Bio-Rad

The Trans-Blot Turbo Western transfer system is a laboratory equipment used for the rapid and efficient transfer of proteins from polyacrylamide gels to membranes, a critical step in Western blotting analysis. The system utilizes a high-powered electrical current to facilitate the transfer process, allowing for faster and more consistent results compared to traditional wet transfer methods.

Western Blot Analysis of Protein Levels

For protein level analyses, proteins were extracted from germ cells using RIPA buffer (Santa Cruz) containing 1× protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche). Protein concentration was calculated using a BCA protein assay kit (Pierce). Lanes of 4–15% gradient SDS polyacrylamide gels (Bio-Rad) were loaded with 20 µl of 1 mg/ml protein extract. Following protein separation via standard SDS PAGE, proteins were transferred to PVDF membranes using the Trans-Blot® Turbo™ western transfer system (Bio-Rad). Primary antibodies and dilution used are presented in Supplemental Table S2. At a 1∶20,000 dilution, Invitrogen horseradish peroxidase-conjugated antibodies rabbit anti-mouse (R21455), goat anti-rabbit (A10533), rabbit anti-goat (R21459) were used as secondary antibodies. The presence of antibodies on the PVDF membranes was detected via treatment with Pierce ECL western blotting substrate (Thermo Scientific) and captured using the Syngene XR5 gel documentation system. Protein levels were assessed using Image J (NIH). The SMC3 Co-IP experiment was performed using the Dynabead® Co-IP kit (Life Technologies). Each milligram of beads was covalently linked to 4 µg of SMC3 antibody (Abcam, ab9263) or corresponding IgG control antibody (Life Technologies, A10533).

For protein level analyses, proteins were extracted from germ cells using RIPA buffer (Santa Cruz) containing 1× protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche). Protein concentration was calculated using a Bicinchoninic acid (BCA) protein assay kit (Pierce). Lanes of 6%, 10%, 15%, and 4–15% gradient SDS polyacrylamide gels (Bio-Rad) were loaded with 20 µl of 1 mg/ml protein extract. Following protein separation via standard SDS–PAGE, proteins were transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes using the Trans-Blot Turbo Western transfer system (Bio-Rad). Primary antibodies and dilution used are presented in Supplemental Table S2. At a 1:5000 dilution, goat anti-mouse (62-6520) and goat anti-rabbit (A10533) horseradish peroxidase–conjugated antibodies (Invitrogen) were used as secondary antibodies. The presence of antibodies on the PVDF membranes was detected via treatment with Pierce ECL Western blotting substrate (Thermo Scientific) and captured using the Syngene XR5 gel documentation system. Protein levels were assessed using Image J (NIH).

Protein concentration was calculated using a BCA protein assay kit (Pierce). Lanes of 4–15% gradient SDS polyacrylamide gels (Bio-Rad) were loaded with 20 µl of 1 mg/ml protein extract. For STA-PUT, 20 µl of 0.1 mg/ml protein extracts from purified leptotene/zygotene and pachytene/diplotene stage spermatocytes and round spermatids were loaded per lane on SDS polyacrylamide gels. Following protein separation via standard SDS–PAGE, proteins were transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes using the Trans-Blot Turbo Western transfer system (Bio-Rad). Primary antibodies and dilution used are presented in Supplemental Table S2.

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.
