Anti-RPS15 | 30S ribosomal protein S15, chloroplastic

5 µg/well of total protein extracted freshly from Nicotiana tabacum RPS15 mutant (1) and wildtype (2) with 0.7 M sucrose, 0.5 M Tris, 50 mM EDTA, 0.1 M KCl, 2% β-Mercaptoethanol, 2% Complete proteases inhibitor, and Phenol, and denatured with 1 vol of 2x protein loading buffer (125 mM Tris-HCl (pH 6.8), 4% SDS, 20% glycerol, 25 mM EDTA, 0.4 mg/ml Bromophenol blue, 2% β-Mercaptoethanol) at 64°C for 10 min. Samples were separated on 12 % SDS-PAGE and blotted 20V/ON or 350A/2h at 4°C to nitrocellulose (pore size of 0.2 µm), using wet transfer. Blot was blocked with 4% milk for 30min/RT on a gentle rocking. Blot was incubated in the primary antibody at a dilution of 1: 1 000 for ON/4°C on a gentle rocking in TBS-T. The antibody solution was decanted, and the blot was rinsed briefly with TBS-T, then washed three times for 10min in TBS-T at RT with agitation. Blot was incubated in secondary antibody (Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (H + L)-HRP Conjugated) diluted to 1:10 000 in 2% dry milk, 15 mM EDTA and TBS-T for 1h/RT with agitation. The blot was washed as above and developed with chemiluminescent detection reagent following manufacture's recommendations. Exposure time was 1.5 min.
