Hi, mon,
Again, I do appreciate your great suggestions!
OMG, really?
It's really incredible!
It's actually practical suggestions. I do keep in mind once I start such expts.
>You can also use a combination method of DSP-crosslinking/immuno-precipitaion after APEX2-labeling.
Yeah, that what I am thinking about:)
Thanks again mon-san, you are awesome scientist!
Indeed, yesterday I just started V5-APEX2-fused protein X experiments.
I transiently expressed Protein X-V5-APEX2 into 293 cells.
After 24 hrs, I added phenyl biotin (500 uM) for 30 min.
And then, I additionally added final 1 mM H2O2 for 1 min.
After that, I washed the cells with PBS containing NaN3, Na Ascorbate and Trolox as quenchers.
Then, I lysed the cells with 1% triton X-100 based lysis buffer followed by centrifuge and adding SDS sample buffer.
Today, I tried to detect biotinized proteins in lysates with HRP-streptavidin.
But I could not see any bands.
By contrast, I could detect biotinized ladder in positive control lane (biotinized isotype IgG).
That means HRP-avidin works fine.
The problem was biotinization did not occur. |
