Cells were lysed in lysis buffer [44 (link)] and cell debris was removed by centrifugation at 14,000xg at 4°C for 15 min. Supernatant extracts were quantified using Bio-Rad protein assay kit. Equal amounts of protein (20-40 μg) were subjected to SDS-PAGE and transferred to PVDF membranes. After transfer, the membranes were incubated with blocking solution and sequentially blotted with primary and second antibodies. The blots were finally developed by the enhanced ECL kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific).
