TC-1 cells were seeded into 10 cm tissue culture dishes and infected when confluent with B. thailandensis or the bsaZ mutant (MOI 500) in a final volume 5 ml in the presence or absence of 100 ng/ml IFNγ. Three hours later, cell monolayers were extensively washed with D-PBS to remove extracellular bacteria and incubated for another 4 hours in medium containing gentamicin and kanamycin (200μg/mL). Biotin-VAD-FMK (15 μM, Santa Cruz) was added to the culture medium one hour before lysing cells in RIPA buffer. Active caspase-11 was pulled down by incubation overnight at 4 °C with streptavidin agarose (Sigma Aldrich) and analyzed by Western Blot with rabbit anti-caspase-11 antibody (Abcam, ab180673)

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.
