Proteins were resolved by gel electrophoresis using NuPAGE Novex 4–12% Bis-Tris Protein Gels (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Proteins were transferred to nitrocellulose and bands detected by immunoblotting with specific rabbit polyclonal antisera. Antibodies against Sec61p, Sbh1p, CPY [29 (link)], Rpn12 [16 (link)], and preproalpha factor (ppαF) [29 (link)] had been previously raised in our laboratory and were used at a dilution of 1:2000; antibodies against Sss1p and Sec63p were kindly provided by Randy Schekman and used at a dilution of 1:2500. Signals were developed by enhanced chemiluminescence using the SuperSignal West Dura Extended Duration Substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to the manufacturer´s instructions.
