Western blot analysis of the CB2-fusion proteins (107, 122, 125, 127, 129, 130, and 131). The recombinant receptor was expressed in E. coli BL21(DE3) cells upon induction with 0.5 mM IPTG at 20 °C for 40 h. Cells were collected by centrifugation and cell membranes obtained as described in Materials and methods. After separation on 10% SDS-PAGE, proteins were electroblotted onto nitrocellulose membranes and probed with either anti-His tag HisProbe reagent or with antibodies against CB2 or MBP.
