Protein extraction, separation by electrophoresis, transfer to membranes, membrane incubation with antibodies and washes, and chemiluminescence detection were carried out as described (22 (link)). An anti-Myc tag polyclonal antibody (PA1-981; Thermo Fisher Scientific) and goat horseradish peroxidase–conjugated anti-rabbit IgG (H + L) (Thermo Fisher Scientific) were diluted at 1:2,000 and 1:10,000 and used as primary and secondary antibodies, respectively. The intensities of the bands corresponding to the Myc-tagged fusion proteins were quantified using ImageQuant TL software (GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL). These intensities were then utilized to normalize the relative expression levels of the PhERF1-regulated metabolic genes, which were determined through RT-qPCR analysis.
