Assays

Pellets of membrane-protected material were lysed with RIPA buffer containing quenchers (50 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl, 0.1% SDS, 1% Triton X-100, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, 1x cOmplete Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (Roche), 1x PhosSTOP 956 (Roche), 10 mM sodium ascorbate, 1 mM Trolox and 1 mM sodium azide), sonicated and centrifuged at 10,000x g for 10 min. The supernatant was incubated with Streptavidin-agarose (Sigma-Aldrich) overnight, which was balanced with RIPA buffer containing quenchers. After ...
