“…Slides were washed a final time and mounted in 0.5% p-phenylenediamine in 90% glycerol, 20mM Tris, pH 8.8, sealed with nail polish, and stored at 4°C prior to imaging.The following antibodies were used: rat anti-AIR-2 (1:500,Davis-Roca et al 2017), rabbit anti-SEP-1 (1:200, gift from Andy Golden), rabbit anti-BIR-1 (1:800, this study), mouse anti-SUMO (1:500, gift from Federico Pelisch), rabbit anti-BUB-1 (1:1000, Davis-Roca et al26 2018), rabbit anti-ASPM-1 (1:5000, gift from Arshad Desai), Mouse anti-a-tubulin-FITC (1:500, DM1a, Sigma) and rabbit anti-KLP-19 (1:2500, this study). KLP-19 and BIR-1 polyclonal antibodies were generated by Covance using recombinant GST-BIR-1 (Full length protein) andGST-KLP-19 (amino acids 371-1084) as antigens (purification performed as inDavis-Roca et al 2018). Antibody sera was then affinity purified and used at indicated concentrations.…”
