Application examples

Application examples Application example

Western blot using anti-PetB antibodies

0.75 µg of chlorophyll from Pisum sativum thylakoids and from mesophyll (M) and bundle sheath (BS) thylakoids of Zea mays, Panicum miliaceum, Echinochloa crus-galli extracted with 0.4 M sorbitol, 50 mM Hepes NaOH, pH 7.8, 10 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl₂ and 2 mM EDTA were loaded to lanes. Samples were denatured with Laemmli buffer at 75 °C for 5 min and were separated on 12% SDS-PAGE and blotted 30 min to PVDF using wet transfer. Blot was blocked with 5% milk for 2h at room temperature (RT) with agitation. Blot was incubated in the primary antibody a dilution of 1: 1000 overnight at 4°C with agitation in 1% milk in TBS-T. The antibody solution was decanted and the blot was washed 4 times for 5 min in TBS-T at RT with agitation. Blot was incubated in secondary antibody (anti-rabbit IgG HRP conjugated, from Agrisera, AS09 602) diluted to 1:25 000 in 1 % milk in TBS-T for 1h at RT with agitation. The blot was washed 5 times for 5 min in TBS-T and 2 times for 5 min in TBS, and developed for 1 min with 1.25 mM luminol, 0.198 mM coumaric acid and 0.009% H₂O₂ in 0.1 M Tris- HCl, pH 8.5. Exposure time in ChemiDoc System was 54 seconds.

Background

Background Multi-subunit complex of cytb6/f is a crucial component for the photosynthetic electron transport chain of higher plants, green algae and cyanobacteria. This complex is catalyzing oxidation of quinols and the reduction the reduction of plastocyanin. This reaction allows to establish the proton force required for the ATP synthesis. Four major subunits build the complex: the petA gene product corresponding to a c-type cytochrome (cytf), the petB gene product corresponding to a b-type/c?-type cytochrome with three haems (cyt b6), the petD gene product (subunit IV, or suIV), and the petC gene product, corresponding to the Rieske/Iron/sulfur protein.
