Tips for Western blotting: 

1. NLRP3 is found only at low levels and the tissue or cells should express enough NLRP3. Therefore, the priming and activation steps are crucial for a successful Western blot and are often the reason why NLRP3 can not be detected properly. Please make sure that you have primed and activated the NLRP3 inflammasome properly.

2. The main band detected with the antibody Cryo-2 is migrating at about 110kDa. For high molecular weight proteins >100kDa such as NLRP3, it is best to transfer overnight following the tips described below. If the NLRP3 is not well transferred, then a longer exposure time is required and other non-specific bands can appear. A semi-dry blot is usually not recommended for proteins higher than 100kDa. We recommend using liquid transfer (wet tank) at 20V overnight to be sure that all NLRP3 has been transferred. Important, if markers are well transferred to the membrane, it does not mean that NLRP3 is transferred well too (markers are selected to be easily transferred also the High Molecular Weight Markers).

For the NLRP3, it is best to apply the following tips:
- Please perform an immunoblotting experiment using a 6-7% SDS-PAGE gel.
- Use 15-20% methanol in the transfer buffer (except for PVDF).
- Do not let the gel sit in the transfer buffer for a prolonged period before transfer.
- Transfer for 16 hours (O/N) at 20 Volts.
- 0.45 µm PVDF or nitrocellulose may be effective.
- Make sure the transfer unit does not overheat during the electroblotting procedure.

3. We recommend using THP1 or BMDCs as a positive control and performing a 2nd antibody-alone control in parallel.
