title: Western blots using stained protein gels.
abstract: A general method is described for the electrophoretic transfer of proteins from stained gels to membranes and subsequent Western detection of specific proteins on the stained membranes. Proteins are separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and the gels are stained using either of two different methods followed by electrophoretic transfer to nitrocellulose or Immobilon-P membranes. The transferred proteins remain stained during immunodetection, providing a set of background markers for protein location and size determination.
