glycoprotein Protocols

Category: Molecular Biology Protocols: Carbohydrate Protocols

Deglycosylation steps are different with every glycoprotein and must be determined empirically (Methods in Enzymology, 1994, 230: 44-57). A typical test reaction of human transferrin is described.

Protocol describes removal of T cell subsets by cytotoxic elimination using CD-specific antibodies. Describes the complete removal of T cells from lymphocyte preparations based on the presence of the glycoprotein Thy-1 on the cell surface of T lymphocytes. Cytotoxic elimination is employed; however, Thy-1-specific antibodies are used rather than MHC class II-specific antibodies so that T cells are eliminated rather than B cells and accessory cells. - [Read T Cell Depletion by Cytotoxic Elimination Protocol]
