    RFNG does not alter the steady-state levels of the NOTCH3 WT or C185R protein. A , representative Western blot of lysates from cultured N3WT/C185R-RF-HeLa cells with and without doxycycline-inducible expression of RFNG. NOTCH3 and RFNG were detected by antibodies against human NOTCH3 extracellular domain (ECD) and human RFNG. TUBULIN was blotted with an antibody against human/mouse α-tubulin as a loading control. The white and black arrowheads indicate full-length NOTCH3 and the ECD, respectively. B , representative Western blot of lysates from cultured N3WT/C185R-RF-HeLa cells treated with or without 0, 0.1, 0.5, or 1 μg/ml doxycycline. RFNG was detected by an antibody against HA, which tagged RFNG. The black arrowheads indicate N3ECDs. C , relative amounts of <t>N3ECD</t> WT and C185R with or without RFNG expression, as determined by Western blotting (B) (independent biological replicates N = 3). N3ECD band intensities were normalized to those observed without doxycycline. D , representative Western blot of cell lysates collected from cultured N3WT-RF-HeLa and N3C185R-RF-HeLa cells with or without RFNG expression and treated with puromycin for 0 or 16 h. The black arrowheads indicate N3ECDs. E , relative band intensities of N3ECD at 16 h normalized to those observed at 0 h, as determined by Western blotting in (D) (independent biological replicates N = 3). Data information: In C and E , data are presented as mean ± SD. n.s., not significant (C: Tukey’s post hoc test following one-way ANOVA; E: Tukey’s post hoc test following two-way ANOVA).

    Article Snippet: The cells were then cocultured with JAG1-3T3 cells (2.0 × 10 5 cells/well) and treated with 200 μM leupeptin hemisulfate for 8 h. The cells were fixed with 4% PFA for 10 min, blocked with 1% Block Ace (Pharma Biomedical) for 30 min, and incubated with mouse anti-human N3ECD (Abnova, 1G5; 1:200) in 0.4% Block Ace for 60 min. After permeabilization with 0.2% Triton X-100 in PBS for 5 min, the cells were reblocked with 1% Block Ace and incubated with sheep anti-human N3ECD (R&D Systems, BAF1559; 1:400) in 0.4% Block Ace and 0.1% Triton X-100 for 60 min.
