Carboxypeptidase Secretion Assay

Revive Yeast Cells (2-3) days
Pick one colony and make a 1/2 inch x 1/2 inch square patch of yeast on selective plates, allow to grow for 1 day. (24°C)
Place nitrocellulose filters on gel and incubate overnight at 23°C. (Make sure to roll the sheet with a tube)
Wash filter in water.
Block filter with BSA for 1 hour.
Wash in primary antibody overnight at 4C or >3h at room temp

(10,000x dilution)
