application example 10 µg of total protein from (1) Arabidopsis thaliana and (4) Oryza sativa leafs extracted with PEB (AS08 300), as well as (2) cytosolic and (3) nuclear fractions of Arbaidopsis thaliana leafs were separated on 4-12% NuPage (Invitrogen) LDS-PAGE and blotted 1h to nitrocellulose. Filters were blocked 1h with 2% low-fat milk powder in TBS-T (0.1% TWEEN 20) and probed with anti-A12.2 (AS07 255, 1:1000, 1h) and secondary anti-rabbit (1:20000, 1 h) antibody (HRP conjugated, Abcam) in TBS-T containing 2% low fat milk powder. Antibody incubations were followed by washings in TBS-T (15, +5, +5, +5 min). All steps were performed at RT with agitation. Signal was detected with standard ECL (Invitrogen) using a Fuji LAS-3000 CCD (300s, standard sensitivity). The target A12.2 is specifically detected only in the nuclear extract of Arabidopsis thaliana (3). |  |
