Most powerful and convincing method to determine if a specific protein is phosphorylated in a physiologically relevant manner is to assay phosphorylation in situ. The procedure described involves incubating cultured cells (e.g., primary neuronal cultures or transfected cells) or tissue preparations (e.g., hippocampal slices) with [32P]orthophosphate, which is then taken up by the cells or tissues and incorporated into the γ-phosphate position of ATP. - [Read Detection of Protein Phosphorylation in Tissues and Cells 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]

This protocol describes assaying kinase activity of a putative kinase using Histone H1 as the substrate. Histone H1 is the canonical kinase substrate in this type of assay. Phosphorylation of Histone H1 is assessed by SDS-Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by autoradiography. Includes information: H1 Kinase Assay on Individual Xenopus Oocytes; H1 Kinase Assay on Xenopus Egg Extract Samples; H1 Kinase Assay on Tissue Culture Cells; Helpful protocol hints. - [Read Histone H1 Kinase Activity Assay]
