Proteins for SDS-PAGE were denatured by heating to 95°C for 5 min in sample buffer (1% SDS, 5–15 mM DTT, bromphenol blue) and separated using the glycine/2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol/HCl (ammediol) system in 5–15 or 10–15% acrylamide gradient gels (Bury, 1981 (link)) casted in-house (10 × 10 × 0.15 cm). The gels were stained with Coomassie Brilliant Blue.
