Product Name:

ReadyPrep™ Protein Extraction Kit (Total Protein)

Catalog Number:

1632086

Efficient extraction of the total protein from the starting material is vital for success of any purification procedure. Complete disruption of cells and release of contents from cellular debris is the most important step in the process. For purification of proteins in the native state, the first step involves the extraction of bulk protein fraction from tissues and cells.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Application

Western Blot analysis

Starting Material

RPE cell

Protocol Overview

Followed instructions for total protein extraction. After adding the rehydration buffer, samples were sonicated 3-4 times for cell lysis. This was centrifuged at 15000*g for 15 min. Then, I removed and transferred supernatant to another clean tube. This is used for immunoprecipitation.

Tips

Disruption by sonication is dependent by type of cells

Results Summary

I acquired a good yield of protein and it worked well for immunoprecipitation

Additional Notes

Follow the manufactures instructions
