Buffers • Triton X-100 lysis buffer: 50 mM Tris-HCI (pH 7.5), 0.5% Triton X-100, 137.5 mM NaCI, 10% Glycerol , 1 mM sodium vanadate, 50 mM sodium fluoride, 10
mM sodium pyrophosphate, 5 mM EOTA, and protease inhibitors (1mM PMSF, 10~g/ml aprotinin, 10~g/mlleupeptin).
1. Lyse cells with 0.5% Triton X-100 lysis buffer. Incubate on ice for 15 min.
2. Separate insoluble nuclei by centrifugation at 3k rpm for 5 min at 4'C with a microcentrifuge Ooes this need a refrigerated microcentrifuge or standard microcentrifuge.
3. Transfer the supernatant (membrane/cytoplasmic fraction) into a new microcentrifuge tube.
4. Rinse the nuclear pellet with the lysis buffer once, then re-suspend in the lysis buffer. Pre-clear by centrifugation at 13,000 rpm for 15 min at 4 'c with a microcentrifuge. Transfer supernatant to a new tube.
5. Add an equal amount of 2X SOS-PAGE sample buffer to the tubes containing the nuclear and membrane/cytoplasmic fractions and boil both tubes for 10 min.
6. Successful fractionation can be verified by absence of ONA in the membrane/cytoplasmic-fraction by agarose gel electrophoresis. And likewise, the absence of beta-tubulin detected by Western blot indicates successful nuclear fractionation.

Protocol: Fractionation of Membrane / Cytoplasmic and Nuclear Proteins
Instruments
• Refrigerated microcentrifuge
• Microcentrifuge with swinging bucket rotor
• Vortex in cold room
Method
1. Place plates on ice.
2. Wash 2X with cold PBS.
3. Add 1.0 ml PBS-EDTA and scrape cells. Transfer to a microcentrifuge tube.
4. Pellet at 3k rpm for 5 min at 4'C.
5. Resuspend in cold harvest buffer (250-500~1).
6. Incubate on ice for 5 min.
7. Pellet at 1,000 rpm in swinging bucket rotor for 10 min to pellet nuclei.
8. Transfer the supernatant to a new tube and for best results, clear the supernatant at 14,000 rpm for 15 min and transfer to a new tube. This will contain the cytoplasmic and membrane proteins.
9. Wash and resuspend pellet from step 7 in 500~1 of Buffer A.
10. Pellet at 1000 rpm in a swinging bucket rotor. Discard supernatant.
11. Add 4 volumes of Buffer C (for a more concentrated extract, use 2 volumes of 2X Buffer C).
12. Vortex 15 min at 4°C, start on high speed vortex to loosen pellet, then turn to medium.
13. Pellet at 14,000 rpm for 10 min at 4°C.
14. Transfer the supernatant to new tube. This contains the nuclear extract.
