“…At 3 days post-infiltration (dpi), approximately 1.5 g of N. benthamiana leaves expressing the tested proteins were ground in lysis buffer (20 mM de HEPES, pH 6.8; 150 mM potassium acetate; 250 mM mannitol; 1 mM MgCl 2 , and 50 µL of protease inhibitor cocktail for plant cell, Sigma–Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). The homogenate was clarified by low centrifugation at 3000× g for 10 min at 4 °C, then the obtained supernatant was ultracentrifuged at 40,000× g for 40 min at 4 °C to yield the soluble (S30) and the crude (P30) microsomal fraction as reported previously [ 7 , 24 ]. Next, the P30 membrane-rich fraction was resuspended in lysis buffer, divided in six equal parts, and subjected to the chemical treatments with lysis buffer, 100 mM Na 2 CO 3 (pH 11), 2, 4, or 8 M urea, and held for 30 min on ice.…”
