==Reagents==
*PHEM Buffer (25 mM HEPES, 10 mM EGTA, 60 mM PIPES and 2 mM MgCl, pH 6.9 – only if using paraformaldehyde)
*Neutral buffered formalin
*Cold PBS
*100 mM Glycine in PBS
*0.1% Triton X-100 in PBS
*Blocking Solution: 1% BSA and 1% ovalbumin in PBS
*Vectashield
==Protocol==
#Prepare Cells (For COS or the like, plate the day before to reach ~50%; for 3T3-L1 split one large plate into 12 wells (6 well plate, 2mL per well) at FBS day 1 and recover onto ethanol sterilized glass coverslips for 4 days in DMEM/PGS/FBS)
#Treat cells as required
#Wash cells twice with 2 mL cold PBS then fix for 10 min at RT
Use neutral buffered formalin, 4% paraformaldehyde in PHEM or ice cold 10% methanol
#Wash twice with PBS
#Add 200 uL of 100mM Glycine in PBSfor 5 min to quench
#Wash once with PBS
#Permeabilize for 10 min with Triton X-100 (0.1% in PBS)
#Wash three times with PBS
#Block for 1-2h with 200 uL of BSA/Ovalbumin (1% of each in PBS) blocking solution
#Incubate overnight with primary antibody in blocking solution
#Wash coverslips 3 times 10 minutes with PBS
#Incubate in 500X secondary solution
#Wash coverslips 3 times 10 minutes with PBS
#Add 10 uL vectashield to glass slide and place cells on slide. Fix with nail polish
