Headplate surgery protocol for in vivo electrophysiological and optogenetic manipulation of basal ganglia neurons in awake head-fixed mice
By onStep by step protocol for headplate surgery for in vivo electrophysiological and optogenetic manipulation of basal ganglia neurons in awake mice.
GFP Immunoprecipitation and Sample Preparation for Tandem Mass Tag (TMT) Mass Spectrometry Analysis
By onWe describe a method to identify potential interactors of any Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) tagged protein expressed in mammalian cells by GFP immunoprecipitation coupled to Tandem Mass Tag (TMT) mass spectrometry analysis. As an example, we used a GFP-tagged phosphoRab interactor protein (RILPL1-GFP), and its non-binding mutant (RILPL1 -GFP, which cannot interact with phosphorylated Rab proteins) as a control.

By onA general protocol for immunological detection by Western blotting MTOR, MTOR (pS2448), ULK1, ULK1 (pS757), p70S6K, p70S6K (pT389), SQSTM1, CALCOCO2, MAP1LC3B, GABARAP, TFEB, TFE3, PGRN, HSP90, and PCNA.
Mitochondrial isolation protocol
By onThis protocol describes how to isolate crude mitochondrial fractions from HeLa cells.
Immunofluorescence of RAB5 and FLAG-EEA1 puncta after Dynamin-1 and -2 inhibition with Dyngo4a
By onSelective purification of early endosomes can be achieved through affinity capture of the early endosome-associated protein EEA1 (termed Endo-IP) (Park et al. in submission). These purified endosomes can be used for proteomic and lipidomic studies to obtain snapshots of early endosomes. Here we present an immunofluorescence protocol to assess the extent of colocalization between FLAG-EEA1 and RAB5 with and without the Dynamin-1 and -2 (DNM1/2) inhibitor Dyngo4a.
