Western Blot with Platelet Protein

互联网

1745

 

 

OUTLINE

Western blot is a wide used technique to identify a target protein/s for the certain antibody.

PROTOCOL
  1. Prepare platelets.
  2. Lyse washed platelets (109 platelets/ml) with 1ml of ice-cold complete lysis buffer. Let to stay for 30min on ice.
  3. Remove debris by centrifugation at 100,000 g for 15 min.
  4. Measure the total protein concentration by a Lowry assay (Lowry et al, 1951). read more   ]
  5. Add either reducing or non-reducing sample buffer to a protein probe. Mix well. Boil for 5 min.  Centrifuge  for 10 min. at 14  000 rpm (100,000g) (ultracentrifuge) if needed.
  6. Prepare and load the running gel. Afterwards, prepare and load stacking gel. Use a comb to form loading "wells" for samples of proteins.
  7. Place the gel into the current field (20 mA per stacking gel, 30 mA per running gel)
  8. Transfer proteins to Hybond ECL Nitrocellulose membranes (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, England) (200 mA-1 A, 2 hours).
  9. Sink in Ponceau S solution. Get rid of the Ponceau S solution by washing with ddH2 O.
  10. Block membranes for 1 hour at room temperature with PBS containing 5% dried nonfat milk.
  11. Wash 1x15 min and 2x5 min in PBS containing 0.05% Tween-20
  12. Incubate overnight at 4ѓC with the first Ab in PBS containing 5% dried nonfat milk.
  13. Wash 1x15 min and 2x5 min  in PBS containing 0.05% Tween-20
  14. Incubate for 1 hour at room temperature with the right dilution of revealing antibody conjugated to horse-radish peroxidase.
  15. Wash 1x15 min and 2x5 min  in PBS containing 0.05% Tween-20
  16. Reveal bound antibodies with ECL western blotting detection reagents (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, England)  according to the manufacturer's instructions. Visualize the chemoluminiscence with the X-Ray film.
