Western blot analysis was performed on whole cell extracts (30 µg lysate) of Neuro-2a (Lane 1), SH-SY5Y (Lane 2), U-87 MG (Lane 3), HEK 293 (Lane 4), Caki-1 (Lane 5), COS-7 (Lane 6), and MDCK (Lane 7). The blots were probed with Rabbit Anti-Veli-3 Polyclonal Antibody (Product # 51-5600, 2 µg/mL) and detected by chemiluminescence using Goat anti-Rabbit IgG (Heavy Chain) Superclonal™ Secondary Antibody, HRP conjugate (Product # A27036, 0.25 µg/mL, 1:4000 dilution). A 22 kDa band corresponding to LIN7C (Veli-3) was observed across the cell lines tested. Known quantity of protein samples were electrophoresed using Novex® NuPAGE® 4-12 % Bis-Tris gel (Product # NP0321BOX), XCell SureLock™ Electrophoresis System (Product # EI0002) and Novex® Sharp Pre-Stained Protein Standard (Product # LC5800). Resolved proteins were then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane with iBlot® 2 Dry Blotting System (Product # IB21001). The membrane was probed with the relevant primary and secondary Antibody following blocking with 5 % skimmed milk. Chemiluminescent detection was performed using Pierce™ ECL Western Blotting Substrate (Product # 32106).
