Protease inhibitors must be included in lysis buffers to prevent degradation of proteins following the release of endogenous proteases during the process of cell lysis. So if your antibody used cannot recognize denatured proteins, you should avoid the detergent in buffer such as SDS, deoxycholate, Triton X-100 and NP-40 or try to use some relatively mild non-ionic detergents. However, these detergent can cause protein denature more or less. In brief, they differ in their ability to solubilize proteins, with those containing sodium dodecyl sulfate and other ionic detergents considered to be the harshest and therefore most likely to give the highest yield. There are many recipes for lysis buffers but a few will serve for most western blotting experiments. The extracted protein must be dissolved and preserved in lysis buffer to further conduct the following electrophoresis process. Overview of extraction options for different cells and tissuesīacteria, yeast, plant tissues, fungal cells Here we list some recommended sample extract method for several kinds of materials in Table 1. Extract proteins quickly, on ice if possible and use buffer to maintain a suitable pH in order to prevent the protein degradation.Protect the proteins to keep them from denaturation. Use extraction procedures that are as mild as possible.Regardless of the source and protein of interest, however, the aim must be to harvest the proteins of interest, while at the same time, obtaining a sufficient yield of proteins at an acceptable level of purity. Extraction of the proteins from plants, bacteria and fungi are further complicated. Whereas sources such as mammalian cells in suspension are easily disrupted under mild conditions and readily release their proteins, it is more difficult to extract proteins from intact tissues or within solid tumors. In principle, all sources of protein, from single cells to whole tissues as well as extracellular matrices, biological fluids and proteins secreted in vitro, are open to analysis by Western blotting. By understanding the nature of your starting sample and having a clear picture of the information you wish to derive from your Western blotting experiments, the chances of a successful analysis could be insured. A good sample preparation makes your western blot half success. Sample preparation is the first step and one of the most important steps of western blot.
