Baculoviruses carrying either the reference or variant SLCO1B1 and sodium butyrate (5 mM final concentration) were added to the HEK293 cells after the cells were cultured for 24 h in T175 flasks. After 48 h of culturing, the cells were pelleted by centrifugation (3000g, 15 min) and broken down using a Dounce tissue homogenizer and resuspended in Tris-sucrose (TS) buffer (10 mM Tris-HEPES, 250 mM sucrose, pH 7.4) while being kept on ice. The cell homogenate was centrifuged for 30 min (3220 g, 4 °C), separating the larger cellular organelles and the nucleus in the pellet. The resulting supernatant was subsequently separated into new tubes and centrifuged (21,000g, 4 °C, 99 min) again, resulting in a pellet containing the crude cell membrane. The protein sample was suspended in TS buffer, and the total protein concentration was quantified as previously described.

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.
