Solution Steps

Step 1: Separation of proteins via electrophoresis

The first step in the Western blot process is to separate the proteins by size using electrophoresis.

Step 2: Transfer of proteins to a membrane

The proteins are then transferred from the gel onto a thin membrane of nitrocellulose or other absorbing compound.

Step 3: Incubation with the primary antibody

The proteins on the membrane are incubated with the primary antibody, which specifically binds to the target protein.

Final Answer

  1. Separation of proteins via electrophoresis
  2. Transfer of proteins to a membrane
  3. Incubation with the primary antibody
