Detection of phosphorylated tyrosine residues can be performed using anti-P-TYR Ab and Western Analysis.Includes 2nd method,which uses phosphotyrosine in conjunction with anti-P-TYR Ab to "unlabel" potential proteins.By comparing Westerns developed with the 1st method(reveals phosphorylated protein) and the 2nd method(reveals non-specific labeling), a more accurate picture of those proteins phosphorylated on tyrosine can be seen. Includes: Protein Preparation, Electrophoresis and Transfer. - [Read Protocol for Antiphosphotyrosine Western Blot Analysis]
Protocol describes a competitive ligand binding assay for cortical neurotrophin receptors. Following binding in the presence of competitor, the bound radiolabeled ligand is cross-linked to the receptor. The cells are lysed and the ligand-receptor complexes are immunoprecipitated using a pan-trk (tyrosine kinase receptor) antibody. Protocol includes:Preparation of Cortical Tissue for Competitive Crosslinking, Competitive Binding, Crosslinking Ligand to Receptor, Lysis and Immunoprecipitation etc - [Read Protocol for Competitive Ligand Binding to Cortical Receptor using Crosslinking]
