Experimental details: Western blot analysis was performed on membrane enriched extracts (30 µg lysate) of HeLa (Lane 1), A-431 (Lane 2), MOLT-4 (Lane 3), SK-OV-3 (Lane 4), LNCaP (Lane 5) and PC-3 (Lane 6). The blot was probed with Mouse Anti-Mu-Calpain Monoclonal Antibody (Product # MA3-940, 2 µg/mL) and detected by chemiluminescence using Goat anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) Superclonal™ Secondary Antibody, HRP conjugate (Product # A28177, 0.25 µg/mL, 1:4000 dilution). An 80 kDa band corresponding to Mu-Calpain was observed across the cell lines tested. Known quantity of protein samples were electrophoresed using Novex® NuPAGE® 4-12 % Bis-Tris gel (Product # NP0321BOX), XCell SureLock™ Electrophoresis System (Product # EI0002) and Novex® Sharp Pre-Stained Protein Standard (Product # LC5800). Resolved proteins were then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane with iBlot® 2 Dry Blotting System (Product # IB21001). The membrane was probed with the relevant primary and secondary Antibody following blocking with 5 % skimmed milk. Chemiluminescent detection was performed using Pierce™ ECL Western Blotting Substrate (Product # 32106).

Experimental details: Knockdown of Mu-Calpain was achieved by transfecting HeLa cells with hnRNP K specific validated siRNAs (Silencer® select Product # s491). Western blot analysis (Fig. 1) was performed using whole cell extracts from the Mu-Calpain knockdown cells (lane 3), non-specific scrambled siRNA transfected cells (lane 2) and untransfected cells (lane 1). The blots were probed with Anti-Mu-Calpain Monoclonal Antibody (Product # MA3-940, 1 µg/mL) and Goat Mouse IgG (H+L) Superclonal™ Secondary Antibody, HRP conjugate (Product # A28177, 0.25 µg/mL, 1:4000 dilution). Densitometric analysis of this western blot is shown in histogram (Fig. 2). Decrease in signal upon siRNA mediated knock down confirms that antibody is specific to Mu-Calpain.

Experimental details: Immunofluorescent analysis of Mu-Calpain in HeLa Cells. Cells were grown on chamber slides and fixed with formaldehyde prior to staining. Cells were probed without (control) or with a Mu-Calpain monoclonal antibody (Product # MA3-940) at a dilution of 1:100 overnight at 4 C, washed with PBS and incubated with a DyLight-488 conjugated secondary antibody (Product # 35503). Mu-Calpain staining (green), F-Actin staining with Phalloidin (red) and nuclei with DAPI (blue) is shown. Images were taken at 60X magnification. This image was taken using unpurified ascites antibody.

Experimental details: Immunohistochemistry was performed on normal biopsies of deparaffinized human kidney tissue. To expose target proteins, heat induced antigen retrieval was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH6.0) buffer, microwaved for 8-15 minutes. Following antigen retrieval tissues were blocked in 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Tissues were then probed at a dilution of 1:20 with a Mouse Monoclonal Antibody recognizing Mu-Calpain (Product # MA3-940) or without primary antibody (negative control) overnight at 4°C in a humidified chamber. Tissues were washed extensively with PBST and endogenous peroxidase activity was quenched with a peroxidase suppressor. Detection was performed using a biotin-conjugated secondary antibody and SA-HRP, followed by colorimetric detection using DAB. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and prepped for mounting. This image was taken using unpurified ascites antibody.

Experimental details: Figure 2. ARL-13/Arl13b associates with ciliary membranes via palmitoyl anchors. (A) N-terminal Pal motif ARL-13 variants (delPal and rPal) fail to localize to amphid (head) and phasmid (tail) cilia (c) and diffusely mislocalize in cell bodies (cb) and dendrites (d). C-terminal deletion ARL-13(del203-370) is also mislocalized, but membrane associations are maintained (arrows). Insets show high magnification images of PHA/B cilia. (B) HsArl13b ciliary localization requires an N-terminal Pal motif. Ciliated RPE1 cells transfected with GFP-tagged Arl13b(WT) or a C8S/C9S variant and costained for ciliary axonemes using acetylated alpha-tubulin antibody are shown. Merged images show that Arl13b(C8S/C9S) is highly diffuse and nonmembrane associated, with weak signals in cilia. The boxed regions are shown at high magnification in the insets. Dashed lines outline the cell. (C) Loss of Pal motif shifts HsArl13b to cytosolic fractions. A subcellular fractionation scheme for Flag-tagged Arl13b (WT and variants) transiently expressed in 293T cells is shown. Supernatants (Sup.) and pellets (Pell) were probed for Arl13b::Flag using Western blotting and an anti-Flag antibody. Calpain and Na + /K + ATPase proteins mark cytosol and membrane fractions, respectively. Arl13b(WT) and Arl13b(1-357) pellet with Na + /K + ATPase membrane proteins after 20,000 g spins, whereas Arl13b(C8S/C9S) remains in calpain-enriched cytosolic supernatants even after 200,000 g spins. (D) Arl13b is palmitoylated in
