Western blot analysis of IRE1 using anti-IRE1 antibody (A00683-1).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 50ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human A549 whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human SK-OV-3 whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: human PANC-1 whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: rat brain tissue lysates,
Lane 5: mouse brain tissue lysates.
After Electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a Nitrocellulose membrane at 150mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% Non-fat Milk/ TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-IRE1 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # A00683-1) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:10000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit (Catalog # EK1002) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for IRE1 at approximately 170KD. The expected band size for IRE1 is at 110KD.
