Protocol for Western BlottingProtocol for Western Blotting
RED TEXT indicates important optimized settings
SDSPAGE separation
1 Make appropriate percentage of separation gel according to the MW of target proteins Related
recommendations and routine recipes of separationstacking gels are presented in the end
Tip 1 TrisTricine gels separate low MW proteins(less than 20 kDa) better than TrisGlycine gels
Tip 2 Gradient polyacrylamide gels can provide sharper bands and they separate a broader range of MW sizes on one gel
such as 10500 kDa
2 Prepare 30 μg C6 lysate with RIPA buffer by mixing 4X SDS sample buffer with lysate sample according to
the protein concentration measured by Bradford or BCA protein assay
3 Heat at 95100°C for 5 min Set up the electrophoresis apparatus with SDSpage gels or Tricine gels
4 Load samples and protein markers onto the gel Set 80 V to run the stacking gel increase to 120 V for the
separation gel till the end
Tip 3 Load enough sample for the first trial and adjust experiment system after getting target signal
Electrotransfer
5 In general PVDF membranes (or PSQ membrane with 022 μm micropore when MW target is less than 30
kDa) are recommended Soak membranes in methanol for 30 sec and then in the transfer buffer Soak the
filter papers and sponges in the transfer buffer as well
6 Sequentially assemble the transfer sandwich according to the illustration and make sure no bubbles are
trapped Apply semidry or wet transfer systems according to manufacturer’s instructions
Tip 4 If target MW is larger than 100 kDa wet transfer at 4 °C overnight is suggested instead of semidry method
Additional 01 SDS in the wet transfer buffer is recommended to facilitate transferring

Immunoblotting
7 After transferring wash the membrane twice with distilled water If desired stain the membrane with
commercial Ponceau red solution for 1 min to visualize the protein bands mark the MW markers on the
membrane with a pencil then wash up the staining with 1X TBST
8 Block with 1X TBST containing 5 nonfat dry milk (or 15 BSA for phosphoepitope antibodies) with
agitation at room temperature for 1 h
9 Dilute primary antibody (250011AP AUTS2 Rabbit PolyAb) with a starting dilution ratio of 1600 in
blocking solution Optimal dilution should be determined in pretests Incubate membrane with the primary
antibody with agitation at room temperature for 15 hours Wash membrane 3 times with 1X TBST for 10
min each
10 Incubate the membrane with the HRPconjugated secondary antibody diluted at 15000 in blocking
solution at room temperature for 1 h Wash membrane 3 times with 1X TBST for 10 min each
Tip 5 Do not let the membrane dry for the entire process 02 NaN3 could be included in the primary antibody dilution
for preservation but never in the secondary antibody dilution
Signal Detection
11 Prepare ECL substrate according to the manufacturer’s instructions
12 Incubate the membrane completely with substrate for 15 min
13 Expose autoradiography film in a dark room or exposure membrane under a chemiluminescence imaging
system Perform multiple exposures to determine the optimal one (60180 Sec exposure to get the fig)
14 Remember to mark the protein MW markers on the film
