Plasmids expressing cMyc-tagged mouse SEPN1 (with A1284T/C conversion of the TGA selenocysteine codon into Cys to increase expression) and cMyc-tagged human Desmin were constructed in a CMV promoter-derived mammalian expression vector. Expression plasmids encoding N-terminally FLAG-tagged human SEPN1 and the mutants SEPN1 SS (C427S, U428S) and SEPN1 CC (U428C) were constructed in pSel-Express vector (a kind gift from Vladimir Gladyshev) [16 ]. The primary antibodies used were: anti-VDAC2, anti-Cyt C, anti-Calnexin, anti-SERCA2, anti-RyR, anti-cMyc, and anti-PDI from Abcam; anti-Flag, anti-β-tubulin, and anti-Sigma 1-R from Sigma-Aldrich; anti-IP3R3 and Cyt c from BD Biosciences; anti-Tom40 from Santa Cruz, and homemade rabbit anti-SEPN1 [21 (link)]. Secondary antibodies Alexa Fluor 488 and 594 were from Life Technologies.

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.
