Protocol for desalting of peptides and protein mixtures by RP-HPLC techniques. The RP-HPLC technique can be used to "desalt" peptide or protein samples derived from extraction procedures, from chemical reactions such as reductive alkylation in the presence of urea or guanidine hydrochloride, citraconylation, iodination, or cyanogen bromide cleavage, or recovered from other chromatographic separation. - [Read Desalting of Peptides and Protein Mixtures by RP-HPLC Techniques Protocol]

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]

Category: Microinjection Protocols: Microinjection of Proteins Protocols

Activation and inactivation of proteins using photoactivation of caged peptides or proteins offer insights into cellular dynamics not achievable using genetic means. The ability to selectively alter the activity of a specific protein at a defined time and location inside a cell allows the correlation of changes in protein activity and cellular behavior. A caged compound, peptide, or protein is prepared by covalently linking it to a photolabile, protecting group. - [Read Introduction of Caged Peptide/Protein into Cells Using Microinjection Protocol]

Category: PCR Protocols: cDNA Synthesis Protocols

In MOPAC, the amino-terminal and carboxy-terminal sequences of a peptide are used to design two redundant families of oligonucleotides encoding the aminoand carboxy-terminal sequences of the peptide.  The primers are used either to amplify a segment of cDNA prepared by RT-PCR from a tissue known to express the protein or to amplify a segment of DNA from an established genomic or cDNA library. - [Read Mixed Oligonucleotide-primed Amplification of cDNA MOPAC Protocol]

Category: Peptide Protocols: Peptide Storage

In general, peptide solutions are stable for up to a week at 4°C. However, if the peptide sequence has inherent instability (Peptide Stability), it might be better to freeze the solution when not in use. Peptide solutions at pH>8 should also be frozen when not in use. Sigma Aldrich. - [Read Peptide Handling and Storage]

Great peptide storage information. Lerner. Peptides are provided as lyophilized product that should be stored as dry powder at -20°C to -70°C in a desiccator, if possible. After lyophilization, peptides retain significant amounts of water. Peptides are slowly degraded particularly the cysteine-containing peptides are oxidized over time at -20°C. - [Read Peptide Storage Information]

Protocols utilize T hybridomas to detect expression of peptide-MHC complexes, since these cells provide the most convenient, consistent, and flexible T cell readout systems for these purposes. If desired, antigen-specific T cell clones can be used in lieu of T hybridoma cells, but T cell clones often give poorer responses than T hybridomas to fixed APCs due to fixation-induced loss of costimulator function. - [Read Presenting Exogenous Antigen to T Cells Protocol]
