Triglyceride content within mouse liver was analyzed as previously described [67 (link)]. In brief, liver was homogenized in NETN lysis buffer supplemented with 5 mM NaF (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), 50 mM 2-glycerophosphate (Sigma-Aldrich), and protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche, Nutley, NJ). Lipid content was determined using Infinity Triglycerides Reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) according to the manufacturer's protocol.

Bovine intestinal alkaline phosphatase (Sigma-Aldrich) was used for in vitro protein dephosphorylation reactions following the manufacturer's instructions. In brief, whole-cell extracts of ∼6 × 107 yeast cells precipitated with trichloroacetic acid (TCA, Sigma-Aldrich) were dissolved in 150 μl of phosphatase reaction buffer (5 mM Tris–HCl pH 8.0, 10 mM NaCl, 1 mM MgCl2 and 0.1 mM dithiothreitol), and then 3–4 μl of 2 M Tris–Base was added to adjust the pH to 7.9. Dephosphorylation reactions were carried out by mixing 37.5 μl of whole-cell extracts with 100 U of Bovine intestinal alkaline phosphatase, followed by incubation for 4 h at 30°C. In the negative control experiments, the phosphatase inhibitor 2-glycerophosphate (Sigma-Aldrich) was added to a final concentration of 16 μM. Dephosphorylation reactions were stopped by the addition of 7% TCA for the subsequent precipitation. The pellet was resuspended in protein sample buffer and then incubated for 10 min at 65°C before analyses using SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Western Blot Analysis of Protein Lysates

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were lysed in either RIPA lysis buffer or NP-40 lysis buffer supplemented with 1 mM sodium orthovanadate (Sigma Aldrich), 1 mM sodium fluoride (Sigma Aldrich), 40 mM 2-glycerophosphate (Sigma Aldrich), benzonase nuclease (Sigma Aldrich), and protease inhibitor cocktail tablets (Roche). Protein was quantified using bicinchoninic acid (BCA) assay (Pierce). Lysate was run on a gradient 4–20% SDS-PAGE gel (Biorad) and then transferred to an Immobilon F polyvinylidene difluoride membrane (Millipore). The membranes were blocked using Odyssey blocking buffer (Li-COR) for at least 1 h and then probed with the indicated primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C with rocking. Blots were washed 3 times with Tris-buffered saline with Tween 20 (TBST) and then probed with IRDye secondary antibody (Li-COR) diluted in Li-COR buffer for at least 1 h at room temperature. Blots were washed 3 times in TBST and then scanned with an Odyssey CLx infrared imaging system (Li-COR) for fluorescent blots.

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.
