Seed HAP1 wild-type or FIP200 knockout cells in 6 well plates and grow until confluency.
Collect cells by trypsinization and pellet by centrifugation at Centrifigation300 x g, 4°C, 00:05:00 .

5m
Centrifigation
After a PBS wash to remove the remaining cell medium, resuspend the cell pellets in lysis buffer.
Wash
Lyse the samples for Duration00:20:00 TemperatureOn ice . Clear the cell lysates by centrifugation at Centrifigation20000 x g, 4°C, 00:10:00 .

Centrifigation
Digestion
Determine the protein concentrations of the cleared protein lysates with the Pierce Detergent Compatible Bradford Assay Kit (23246, Thermo Fisher).
For both samples, wild-type and FIP200 knockout lysates, incubate Amount100 µg of cell lysate with Amount5 µL of 10x NEBuffer for Protein MetalloPhosphatases (P0753, New England Biolabs) and Amount5 µL of Concentration10 millimolar (mM) of MnCl2 to make a total reaction volume of Amount50 µL .
Incubation
Add Amount1 µL of Lambda Protein Phosphatase (NEB) to the reaction and incubate the samples at Temperature30 °C for the indicated time.
Incubation
Pipetting
Terminate the phosphatase reactions by the addition of 6x Protein Loading dye and heat inactivation at Temperature95 °C for Duration00:05:00 .
