Figure 3. CAPNS1 protein and calpain-1/2 activities are ablated by capns1 deletion.
(Upper) Lysates from capns1flox/flox MTECs transduced with Cre-expressing (KO) or control (WT) retroviruses; or capns1+/+ (WT) or capns1−/− (KO) mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) were subjected to immunoblotting analysis with antibodies recognizing CAPNS1 or tubulin. (Lower) Casein zymography assessment of calpain-1 and calpain-2 activities in lysates from the same panels of MTEC and MEF cells.
