Protocol allows you to measure the content of cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP or cAMP) in splenic B lymphocytes (B cells) in an enzyme-linked immunoassay. This protocol utilizes acetylation of cAMP to improve sensitivity and reduce interference. Protocol includes information on: how to determine cAMP, calculations and reagents and materials. - [Read Assay of Cyclic AMP in Lysates of Cells]
Novel strategy of immunizing a phosphorylated peptide or a synthetic phosphopeptide, which corresponds to the protein phosphorylated at a targeted residue. Method has been applied to the production of antibodies that can specifically recognize the other types of site-specific protein modification, such as acetylation, methylation, and proteolysis. - [Read Functional Analyses for Site-Specific Phosphorylation of a Target Protein in Cells]
Protocol describes how to determine the monosaccharide composition of glycans, glycoproteins, or proteoglycans by hydrolyzing the sample to monosaccharides and converting them to alditols, then performing acetylation to make them volatile compounds and analysis by gas chromatography (GC) or gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). - [Read Monosaccharide Composition Analysis: Alditol Acetates Protocol]
This protocol provides a sufficient sample for several determinations of cAMP using the acetylation protocol. The method chosen for measuring the content of cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP or cAMP) in splenic B lymphocytes (B cells) is an enzyme linked immunoassay system.
