Western blot analysis of PKC alpha on different lysates with Rabbit anti-PKC alpha antibody at 1/1,000 dilution.
Lane 1: 293T cell lysate (20 µg/Lane),
Lane 2: U-87 MG cell lysate (20 µg/Lane),
Lane 3: NIH/3T3 cell lysate (20 µg/Lane),
Lane 4: C6 cell lysate (20 µg/Lane),
Lane 5: Mouse brain tissue lysate (40 µg/Lane),
Lane 6: Rat brain tissue lysate (40 µg/Lane),
Exposure time: 9 seconds;
4-20% SDS-PAGE gel.
Proteins were transferred to a PVDF membrane and blocked with 5% NFDM/TBST for 1 hour at room temperature. The primary antibody at 1/1,000 dilution was used in 5% NFDM/TBST at 4℃ overnight. Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG - HRP Secondary Antibody at 1/50,000 dilution was used for 1 hour at room temperature.
ICC/IF
Immunocytochemistry analysis of 293T cells labeling PKC alpha with Rabbit anti-PKC alpha antibody at 1/100 dilution.
Cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 minutes at room temperature, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in PBS for 15 minutes at room temperature, then blocked with 1% BSA in 10% negative goat serum for 1 hour at room temperature. Cells were then incubated with Rabbit anti-PKC alpha antibody at 1/100 dilution in 1% BSA in PBST overnight at 4 ℃. Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (iFluor™ 488) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1,000 dilution. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control. Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI.
Beta tubulin (red) was stained at 1/100 dilution overnight at +4℃. Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (iFluor™ 594) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1,000 dilution.
IP
PKC alpha was immunoprecipitated from 0.2 mg 293T cell lysate with Rabbit anti-PKC alpha antibody at 2 µg/10 µl beads. Western blot was performed from the immunoprecipitate using Rabbit anti-PKC alpha antibody at 1/1,000 dilution. Anti-Rabbit IgG for IP Nano-secondary antibody at 1/5,000 dilution was used for 1 hour at room temperature.

Blocking/Dilution buffer: 5% NFDM/TBST

FC
Flow cytometric analysis of 293T cells labeling PKC alpha.
Cells were fixed and permeabilized. Then stained with the primary antibody (1/1,000) (red) compared with Rabbit IgG Isotype Control (green). After incubation of the primary antibody at +4℃ for an hour, the cells were stained with a iFluor™ 488 conjugate-Goat anti-Rabbit IgG Secondary antibody at 1/1,000 dilution for 30 minutes at +4℃. Unlabelled sample was used as a control (cells without incubation with primary antibody; black).
