Larval heads were removed and used for genotyping, bodies were snap-frozen, homogenised in immunoprecipitation buffer (Pierce). In all, 30 μg of protein was loaded on a 4–12% Bis-Tris Protein Gel MES Buffer (ThermoFisher Scientific). Primary antibodies were prepared in TBS blocking buffer (LI-COR): fkrp: rabbit polyclonal 1:500 fkrp48 (link), 1:500, Beta-Tubulin-Loading Control (Abcam: ab6046), Golgi 50 kda, IgG rabbit (Abcam: ab6046) 1:10,000, incubated in secondary antibody IRDye 800CW goat anti-rabbit (LI-COR) 1:5000. Blots were scanned on  a infrared scanner (Odyssey). Co-immunoprecipitation utilised 10ug of antibody, fibronectin or FKRP, and a protein-G dynabead kit (Thermofisher).
