Phos-tag affinity electrophoresis

Quantitative protein profiling using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, isotope-coded affinity tag labeling, and mass spectrometry.

Quantitative protein profiling is an essential part of proteomics and requires new technologies that accurately, reproducibly, and comprehensively identify and quantify the proteins contained in biological samples. We describe a new strategy for quantitative protein profiling that is based on the separation of proteins labeled with isotope-coded affinity tag reagents by two-dimensional gel elec...

Affinity Capillary Electrophoresis

Multiple-Injection Affinity Capillary Electrophoresis

Please address correspondence to Frank A. Gomez at [email protected]. nteractions between biological species are essential to life and are involved directly in many of the enzyme-based reactions involved in cell division, cell death, and cell transformations. These biological interactions are important in the initiation, progression, and harmful effects of human disease including Parkinson...

Partial-filling affinity capillary electrophoresis.

Partial-filling affinity capillary electrophoresis (PFACE) is used to examine the binding interactions between two model biological systems: D-Ala-D-Ala terminus peptides to the glycopeptide antibiotic vancomycin (Van) from Streptomyces orientalis, and arylsulfonamides to carbonic anhydrase B (CAB, EC 4.2.1.1, bovine erythrocytes). Using these two systems, modifications in the PFACE technique a...

Phos-Tag-Based Analysis of Myosin Regulatory Light Chain Phosphorylation in Human Uterine Myocytes

BACKGROUND The 'phosphate-binding tag' (phos-tag) reagent enables separation of phospho-proteins during SDS-PAGE by impeding migration proportional to their phosphorylation stoichiometry. Western blotting can then be used to detect and quantify the bands corresponding to the phospho-states of a target protein. We present a method for quantification of data regarding phospho-states derived from ...
