Because of the pH of this solution need not be checked, it can be made up directly in large reagent bottles marked at 4.0 liters. 12-16 liters can be made up at a time.

analogous to the original procedure developed by Southern for DNA, is possible. However, because of the highly cross-linked nature of the acrylamide gels used for protein separations it is extremely slow (days). Semidry Blotting Reference: M. Lauriere, Anal. Biochem. 212: 206-211 (1993) Semidry blotting is becoming increasingly popular as it is fast, uses little buffer, and the progress of the transfer can be readily checked. A wide variety of buffers have been used. The procedure we will adopt is more complicated than most since it uses 4 different buffers. However, it has the advantage that both high and low molecular weight proteins can be quantitatively transferred. This is because the buffers are cleverly designed to efficiently elute the proteins out of the gel and deposit them in high yield on the membrane (see the diagram below). Buffer I, closest to the cathode, contains a high concentration of SDS at an alkaline pH. This buffer serves as a continuous source of SDS during electrophoresis and helps to solubilize proteins. The SDS-protein complexes will be negatively charged at the alkaline pH and readily move to the anode. Buffer II, which is just underneath buffer I, reproduces the electrophoretic conditions of the SDS-PAGE separation with respect to pH, ionic strength, and presence of SDS. Under these conditions the resulting SDS protein complexes in the gel continue to move rapidly to the anode. However, as the proteins approach the membrane these conditions change rapidly. Buffer III contains no SDS and has a low pH and a high methanol concentration. This buffer is designed to stop most of the proteins at the surface of the membrane. The acidification of the medium promotes the dissociation of the SDS from the proteins. Once the SDS is removed, most proteins become less soluble and lose their negative charge that stops them from migrating farther toward the anode. The high concentration of methanol in this buffer also tends to favor protein precipitation at the membrane. Buffer IV raises the pH of the transferred proteins to 10.4 at which pH basic arginine and lysine residues are positively charged. Thus, any protein that fails to stop at the pH 3.8 boundary, will acquire a net positive charge and be directed back towards the cathode giving it a second chance to bind at the membrane. While this four buffer system may represent biochemical "overkill", it may be useful for blotting very valuable samples or high molecular weight proteins which can be difficult to transfer quantitatively by standard methods. THROUGHOUT THE PROCEDURE WEAR GLOVES TO AVOID GETTING OILY PRINTS ON THE MEMBRANES WHICH CAN INHIBIT TRANSFER. ALSO BE SURE TO AVOID BUBBLES AND EXCESS LIQUID WITHIN THE GEL SANDWICH. TREAT THE BLOTTING APPARATUS GENTLY AS THE GRAPHITE ELECTRODES ARE SOFT AND EASILY BROKEN. 1. The gels and blotting membranes sandwiches are assembled with Whatman No. 3 paper and blotting pads in blotting sandwiches as shown in the figure given below. The composition of the buffers is as given in Table I. 2. Dry blotting pads large enough to completely surround the gel to be blotted are wetted with the desired buffer. The Whatman paper is wetted with the desired buffer and the membrane filter with deaerated water. (If using PVDF membranes, they must first be wetted in methanol, then water.) 3. Equilibrate the gels for 15 minutes in Buffer II. (The gels will swell slightly). 4. Assemble the gel sandwich as shown using a frame of polyester transparency film (from overhead projectors) around each gel to prevent buffer mixing and electric current leakage. 5. Transfer for 1 h/mm of gel thickness at a constant current of 1 mA/cm2. Note: If you are transferring many gels, you can place a wet sheet of dialysis membrane on top of the bottom stack, then place a second stack on top of the first. The dialysis membrane will serve to ensure that no proteins from the upper sandwich migrate through to the lower sandwich. 6. After removing the blotted Immobilon-P filter you must first dry it to fix the proteins to the membrane before continuing on to any transillumination or rapid immunodetection procedures to ensure optimum results. There are four drying options. a) Soak the membrane in 100% methanol for 10 sec to drive out the water. Then place the blot on a piece of filter paper. Wait for the methanol to evaporate (~15 Min) b) Place the blot in a vacuum chamber (secure the blot between two sheets of filter paper (~30 min.) c) Incubate the blot at 37oC (~1 hr) d) Place the blot on a lab bench to let it dry at room temperature (~2 hr)

Tank Blotting This is a commonly used alternative to semidry blotting. Tank transfer uses much more buffer than the semidry procedure. The following protocol is written for a large tank transfer apparatus (Hoefer) used for an overnight transfer. NOVEX makes a small combination apparatus that allows you to do both the Western and the subsequent membrane transfer with the same device. If you do not already have a small acrylamide gel box and a semi-dry blotter or a tank blotter, then this is a good buy because you get both pieces of equipment at a substantial net savings. NOVEX also sells very precise precast gels for about $8.00 each.
The Hoefer procedure is as follows. 1. Cut two sheets of Whatman #1 paper and one sheet of nitrocellulose to 8 cm x 5 cm. Wear gloves. Do not touch the paper or nitrocellulose with your hands. Fingerprints can show up on blots (that way you know who has been touching the nitrocellulose). 2. Carefully wet the nitrocellulose in transfer buffer. Start from one corner and slowly lay the filter in to the transfer buffer. 3. Soak the Whatman paper and nitrocellulose in transfer buffer for at least 5 min. 4. Fill a large glass tray with transfer buffer and place one of the transfer blotting pads in it. 5. Build a blot sandwich on the sponge: Whatman paper, gel, nitrocellulose, Whatman paper. Carefully layer each piece onto the sandwich. Do not get any bubbles in your sandwich.

6. Place sandwich into transfer tank. SDS in denaturing gel gives proteins a large net negative charge. Place sandwich such that proteins will move out of the gel and onto the nitrocellulose. Nitrocellulose side of sandwich should face positive pole. 7. Transfer proteins overnight at 0.2 Amp with cooling. 8. Turn off power and remove blot and membrane. 9. After removing the blotted Immobilon-P filter you must first dry it to fix the proteins to the membrane before continuing on to any transillumination or rapid immunodetection procedures to ensure optimum results. There are three drying options. a) Soak the membrane in 100% methanol for 10 sec to drive out the water. Then place the blot on a piece of filter paper. Wait for the methanol to evaporate (~15. Min) b) Place the blot in a vacuum chamber (secure the blot between two sheets of filter paper (~30 min.) c) Incubate the blot at 37oC (~1 hr) d) Place the blot on a lab bench to let it dry at room temperature (~2 hr)

wide variety of proteins. Finally, it works well on both nitrocellulose and PVDF (Immobilon) but not nylon type filters. (Remember that Immobilon filters always need to be prewet in methanol and then water prior to carrying out any procedure using aqueous buffers!). The stain can also be used for staining gels prior to transfer, but in this application is not notably superior to Coomassie Brilliant Blue. Staining 1. Submerge the blot for 30" in the staining solution. (If staining is not obvious, continue up to five minutes) 2. Rinse two or three times with 12 mM HCl to remove unbound dye. Protein will stain a vivid, turquoise-blue with little or no background staining of the filter. On PVDF filters a rinse in 20% ethanol or methanol is necessary to remove all the unbound dye. (Immobilon P filters are more difficult to destain than the original Immobilon filters). 3. Photograph the membrane through an orange filter in white light. Lay a ruler beside the filter so that the location of the molecular weight standards can be readily determined if they fade during the hybridization process. Destaining 1. Soak the blot in 0.5 M NaHCO3 for a few minutes and rinse repeatedly with deionized H2O to remove the bulk of the stain from the protein bands. Not all the dye is removed, but that which remains does not appear to interfere with subsequent antibody detection methods. NOTE: The sensitivity of the stain is about 10 ng of protein.

PROTOCOL 1.6: RAPID IMMUNODETECTION PROTOCOL WITH ENHANCED CHEMILUMINESCENCE DETECTION (ECL)
SOURCE: ECL WESTERN BLOTTING PROTOCOLS, AMERSHAM CORP. 1994 This system is based on the detection of light emission from a secondary antibody linked to horseradish peroxidase which catalyzes the oxidation of luminol. Light emission is detected on x-ray film. Although this system is more expensive and less convenient than the colorimetric alkaline phosphatase detection system, the sensitivity can be incredible. The rapid protocol presented here is essentially that presented in Appendix I of the Amersham technical book on ECL. If time is in short supply the following protocol allows the immunodetection using HRP-labeled antibodies to be completed in just over 2 hours, compared to 4 hours 15 minutes for the standard protocol. If desired, the protocol can be further shortened by also optimizing the primary antibody for a shortened incubation. Immediately following this protocol is a method for optimizing the ECL system before you even run an SDS-PAGE gel. If you are starting from scratch it is highly recommended that you follow that protocol first. PROCEDURE: 1. Electrophoresis and blotting should be done according to your favorite protocol.

2. Blocking the membrane. Non-specific antibody binding sites on membranes must be blocked before probing to prevent high background and/or spurious binding to specific protein bands. Typical blocking reagents are 5% non-fat dry milk (blotto) or 10% BSA dissolved in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) or Tris buffered saline (TBS) solutions which contain 0.05% to 0.1% Trween 20.. Blocking may be accomplished in as little as 10 minutes or may require overnight at 4oC depending on the antigen/antibody background and the specific membrane being used. Both the blocking times and the optimal tween-20 concentrations have to be determined empirically. 3. During the blocking stage dilute the primary antibody in PBS-T or TBS-T. Note: The optimum dilution of the primary antibody will vary and should be determined for each antibody used. See Protocol 1.8. 4. Rinse the membrane 3 X 15 seconds each in PBS-T or TBS-T. Slightly longer rinses are presumably acceptable. 5. Incubate the membrane in the diluted primary antibody for 1 hour (to overnight) at room temperature with agitation. Note: A further shortening of the immunodetection is possible by increasing the primary antibody concentration. This allows a reduction in the incubation time without compromising sensitivity. However, the optimal increase, which saves time, but does not cause severe background problems, must be optimized for each new antibody. 6. Use PBS-T or TBS-T for the washing buffer. Briefly rinse the membrane using three changes of wash buffer, then wash twice for 10 minutes with fresh changes of washing buffer, at room temperature. As large a volume of wash buffer as possible should be used at each time. As a guide, there should be at least 4 ml per cm2 of membrane present. 7. During the wash steps dilute the HRP-labeled secondary antibody in PBS-T or TBS-T. 8. Incubate the membrane in the diluted secondary antibody for 15 minutes at room temperature with agitation. 9. Wash the membrane as described in step 6. 10. Signal Generation/Detection Read through this whole section before proceeding. It is necessary to work quickly once the blots have been exposed to the detection solutions. All steps can be carried out in a dark room; it is only necessary to switch off the light after step J below. Equipment that is needed includes an X-ray film cassette, a roll of Saran Wrap (other 'cling-films' may not be suitable), a timer and blue-light sensitive autoradiography film, for example Hyperfilm-ECL (RPN 2103). If possible, wear powder-free gloves because powder spots cause blank areas on films. a. Mix an equal volume of detection solution 1 with detection solution 2 to sufficiently cover the blot, in this case 5 ml of solution 1 and 2. b. Place a large piece of Saran Wrap on flat bench. Use clean Kimwipe to smooth out the Saran Wrap so that it is perfectly flat. c. Use forceps to remove the blot from the hybridization tube. Be careful to only clamp the edges of the blot to prevent crushing the lane areas. Crushing sometimes causes high background. d. Remove excess wash buffer by holding the blot vertically and touching one of the lower corners to a small pile of Kimwipes. Wait until all the excess moisture is wicked from the blot. e. Place the blot in the middle of the plastic sheet protector or Saran Wrap with the protein side up. f. Using pipette draw up mixed developing solution and apply solution to the corners and middle of the blot. Add enough so that the entire blot is covered and you can see a positive meniscus. Surface tension will hold the fluid on top. Stop adding the solution if it begins to flow out on the surrounding page protector or Saran Wrap. g. Incubate for 1 minute at room temperature. h. While the sample is incubating put a clean piece of Saran Wrap (big enough to wrap the entire blot in) or page protector on the bench and spread it out with a Kimwipe. i. Using fresh Kimwipes, drain off excess detection buffer as described in Step 3. j. If using Saran Wrap, place the blot protein side down onto the new piece of Saran Wrap. Fold the Saran Wrap over the back of the membrane so the membrane is totally covered, and smooth out air pockets. Ideally the Saran Wrap on the protein side of the blot should remain even and smooth using this procedure. As soon as the membrane is wrapped, flip it over so the protein side faces up, and attach fluorescent markers asymmetrically to the side of the blot so that you can orient the autorad later. Alternatively, you can use the plastic sheet protectors. In this case the membrane can be placed protein side up, then covered, and the fluorescent marker attached to the top of the sheet protectors. These are difficult to clean adequately and should be thrown away after the Western has been developed. k. Place the wrapped blot(s), protein side up, in the film cassette. Work as quickly as possible; minimize the delay between incubating the blots in substrate and exposing them to the film. l. Switch off the lights in the dark room and place a sheet of autoradiography film (for example Hyperfilm-ECL) on top of the blots, close the cassette and expose for 15 seconds to 10 minutes or longer if necessary. m. Interpret results. 11. For a Western blot detected with antibodies of known activity: a. If a previous Western blot resulted in high background, dilute the HRP conjugate at least two-fold (when using biotin-streptavidin system, dilute both biotinylated antibody and streptavidin-HRP by the same amount) for future detections.

b. If a previous Western blot resulted in non-specific banding, but clear background, dilute the primary antibody two-fold for future detections. Background Correction If a result has background or excess "banding" (cross-reactivity) these methods can be used to produce a result that is acceptable. While these three suggestions can improve signal to noise, the best results are obtained after correct antibody concentrations are determined as described above. 1. Remove the membrane from the plastic wrap and repeat the final washing step. Background and unwanted bands (cross-reaction) are lower affinity reactions and the antibodies will wash off faster than specifically-bound antibodies. Remember to re-incubate the blot in ECL detection reagents before exposing to film. 2. Allow the membrane to stand (not exposing to film) for several minutes; with time the HRP generated signal will decrease. In general, diffuse areas of background will disappear faster than specific signal; resulting in improved signal to noise. 3. Treat membrane with 5-10% H2 O2 in PBS for up to 30 minutes. Hydrogen peroxide treatment can help reduce backgrounds and will not affect the membrane. This treatment may not be suitable for rare antigen detection or weakly binding antibodies. Materials:

Note: Although the majority of workers continue to use the original ECL reagent developed by Amersham, Pierce now sells several alternative formulations which seem to offer the advantages of a longer signal output and lower cost. Pierce also sells an ultrasensitive reagent that is very expensive, but works well. For routine use, you can use "homemade" ECL reagents. Two formulations from the Internet are: 14.

PROTOCOL 1.8: EXPRESSION OF CLONED DNA IN PET PLASMIDS AND DETECTION OF RESULTING PROTEIN
INTRODUCTION: There are a large number of systems available for expressing cloned genes in a variety of hosts. Many of these hosts e.g. yeast or insect cells are capable of producing functionally active mammalian proteins. Bacterial cells are also capable of producing functionally active mammalian proteins, but often bacteriallyexpressed proteins are non-functional either because they lack important post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation or glycosylation and/or because the proteins fold improperly and aggregate. Despite these limitations, bacterial expression systems can still be useful for a variety of studies. For example, they can produce large quantities of protein for antibody production or for use as substrates for post-translational modification enzymes. Expression systems based on the expression of proteins from bacteriophage T7 promoters are especially popular because they can produce extremely high levels of the desired protein amounting to as much as 25% of the total cell protein. The efficiency of these systems derives from the fact that the T7 RNA polymerase is highly selective for transcription from its own promoters. As a result, in the presence of T7 RNA polymerase, nearly all the cells production of proteins comes from the cloned gene. Indeed, the system is so efficient that often the problem is ensuring that there is not premature expression of toxic proteins during the growth of the cells. Because of the problem of premature expression, the developers of the T7 system have developed ways of keeping tight control on the expression of the cloned gene. The first level of control is to control the level of the T7 RNA polymerase itself. This is usually accomplished by placing the polymerase under the control of the highly inducible lacUV5 promoter which can be induced by IPTG. However, even though the basal expression from this promoter is quite low, modest amounts of T7 RNA polymerase can still be expressed in such uninduced cells. To circumvent this low level of expression several procedures have been developed. One uses the presence in the cell of a second plasmid that produces T7 lysozyme-an inhibitor of the polymerase. In another scenario, the cloned gene itself is placed under the control of the lac operator which reduces expression in the absence of IPTG. The Novagen Co. (Madison, WI) has developed a large number of such vectors under the name pET vectors. Many of these vectors have special features that facilitate the purification of the expressed proteins such as affinity tags and protease sensitive sites for removing the affinity tags after purification. In the present protocol, inserts that have been subcloned into the vector pET-28 in the host cell BL21(DE3) are induced with IPTG to provide expression of the polymerase. The gene providing the polymerase is actually contained within a lambda phage DE3 that lysogenizes the host. Proteins from the induced cells are run on SDS/PAGE and the fusion protein identified by its high level of expression and its molecular weight. A more definitive identification of the protein would involve Western blotting to ensure that the proper gene had been cloned and expressed.
PROCEDURE: 1. For screening of protein expression, it is recommended to start with multiple colonies. In some circumstances some colonies may not be expressing as high as the others. Make a 1:100 dilution of an overnight culture of BL21(DE3)pLysS containing your gene cloned into the pET vector into 5 ml of LB with appropriate antibiotics for plasmid selection. 2. Grow at 370 C for 1.5-3 h until the OD600 is about 0.3.

3. The cultures then need to be split into two halves. Induce one half with IPTG to a final concentration of 0.2 mM. The other half should be left uninduced as a control. 4. Continue the incubation for another 1-4 hours. The time depends on the particular protein. 5. Transfer the cultures into screw-cap or lock-top microfuge tubes and spin them in a microcentrifuge for 1 min. 6. Discard the supernatant and drain the pellets using a Pipetman tip. 7. You can freeze the pellet at -20oC to help lyse cells and to slow degradation. You can leave the pellet frozen indefinitely if your protein of interest is fairly stable. However it is best to immediately proceed to step 8. 8. Immediately after the supernatant has been removed from the cell pellet (or the stored cell pellet has been thawed rapidly), add 50 - 100 ml of sterile water and resuspend cell pellet. You may have to pipette the cells up and down to resuspend the cells. It is important to resuspend the cells before adding the lysis buffer to ensure complete lysis. 9. Immediately add a volume of ice cold 2X sample buffer approximately equal to the estimated volume of the cell pellet plus the water added to resuspend the pellet (~75 to 100 ml). Be sure to keep your final volume between 100-200 ml to keep your protein concentration sufficiently high. 9. Vortex to resuspend the pellet and immediately place the screw cap microfuge or lock top microfuge tube in boiling water bath for 2-5 min to prevent degradation. After boiling, you may again have to pipette up and down to resuspend the denatured proteins. If your prep is very viscous, sonicate the sample with two short 5 sec. bursts at medium power and chill the sample on ice until you are ready to load it on the SDS/PAGE Gel. This treated sample can be stored frozen for future runs. 10. The samples next need to be then analyzed on a SDS/PAGE gel, Protocol 1.3 starting at the section on Sample Loading and Final Assembly of the SE 250.. Usually about 5 ml of sample gives sufficient protein to allow visualization of the bands upon staining. MATERIALS:

PROTOCOL 1.10 STAINING OF POLYPEPTIDES WITH COOMASSIE BRILLIANT BLUE IN THE PRESENCE OF PICRATE
REFERENCE J.L. STEPHANO ET AL. ANAL. BIOCHEM. 152: 308-313 (1985) INTRODUCTION: Although this method of Coomassie staining is not appreciably more sensitive than standard methods, it is much faster for staining gels lacking detergents e.g. acetic acid urea gels and considerably faster even for gels containing detergents like SDS or Triton. Furthermore one can sometimes stain low molecular weight peptides that are unstained by conventional Coomassie stain., and the stained gels are suitable for densitometry. About the only drawback to this technique is that bottles of picric acid can explode if allowed to completely dry or if certain metal picrate salts are formed. Hence it is prudent to add a little water to the bottles after opening them and wrap them tightly with Parafilm, and to avoid contact with metals. Waste picrate solutions should be washed down the drain with plenty of water. We give here only the procedure of SDS gels which require a washing to remove detergent prior to staining. For other types of gels consult the original reference. Procedure: (for standard Laemmli gels containing SDS) 1. Wash the detergent out of the gels by 3 washes in fixing solution for 20 minutes each. 2. Add the picrate Coomassie stain. The bands should begin to appear in 10 to 15 minutes although very minor bands may take up to several hours to stain. The gels do not overstain even if left in the staining solution overnight. Although the paper reports that destaining is not needed, the staining will be a bit more distinct if following the brief staining period the gels are washed for a half hour or so in water. The gels can then be dried and photographed. The stain can be reused for multiple gels until staining is no longer satisfactory.
