Human U-87 MG Whole Cell Lysate

• Cat.No.: U-87-016HCL
• Product Overview: Ready-to-use whole cell lysates are derived from cell lines or tissues using highly refined extraction protocols to ensure exceptionally high quality, protein integrity and lot-to-lot reproducibility. All extracts are tested by SDS-PAGE using 4-20% gradient gels and immunoblot analysis using antibodies to key cell signaling components to confirm the presence of both high molecular weight and low molecular weight proteins.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Form: Liquid (sterile filtered)
• Specificity: U-87 MG cells were grown in Eagle''s Minimum Essential Medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. Cells were washed with PBS and then incubated on ice in modified RIPA buffer to lyse the cells. Protein integrity was ensured using a cocktail of protease inhibitors with broad specificity for the inhibition of aspartic, cysteine, and serine proteases as well as aminopeptidases (0.1 mM AEBSF HCl, 0.08 μM Aprotinin, 5 μM Bestatin, 1.5 μM E-64, 2 μM Leupeptin Hemisulfate, 1 μM Pepstatin A). Phosphatase inhibitors 1 mM NaF and 1 mM Na3VO4 were also added. Cell debris was removed by centrifugation. Protein concentration was determined by a modified BCA assay using a commercially available kit. Protein concentration was adjusted to 1 mg/mL using 2× SDS-PAGE sample buffer.
