2h 5m
Wash cells 1X with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, Sigma‒Aldrich) and detach using Accutase.
Pellet the cell suspension at Centrifigation280 rcf, 23°C, 00:05:00 .
5m
Lyse the pellets in IP/lysis buffer (Thermo Fisher, #87787) supplemented with a protease/phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (Pierce, #A32959).
Carry out coimmunoprecipitation using the Thermo Fisher Pierce Crosslink Magnetic IP/Co-IP Kit (#88805) according to the manufacturer´s instructions:
Prewash Amount25 µL of Pierce protein A/G magnetic beads (Thermo Fisher, #88802-3) twice with 1X Modified Coupling Buffer and incubate with Amount10 µg of GBA MaxPab polyclonal rabbit antibody (Abnova) or normal rabbit IgG (Covalab, #pab01004-P) on a rotating wheel DurationOvernight atTemperature4 °C .
The following day, crosslink the antibody to the beads with a Concentration0.25 millimolar (mM) DSS solution for Duration01:00:00 on a rotating wheel at TemperatureRoom temperature .
1h
Incubate crosslinked magnetic beads DurationOvernight with a total of Amount7 mg of protein for each lysate.
1h
Elute Coimmunoprecipitated proteins from the beads with Amount60 µL of the kit-provided Elution buffer Ph2.0 (Pierce, #88805) and neutralize with Amount6 µL of Neutralization Buffer provided with the kit.
Prepare samples for Western blotting by adding 5x Lane buffer +10% DTT Concentration1 Molarity (M) to a final concentration of 1X.

Note
  • Each western blot input sample loaded corresponds to a total of Amount50 µg of protein.
  • Each western blot CoIP sample loaded corresponded to the total of each elution product (Amount66 µL ).
