Phospho-Tyrosine Mouse mAb (P-Tyr-100) Beads(for use with PhosphoScan® Technology) #7902

Description

Cell Signaling Technology's patented PhosphoScan® Technology allows for the purification and identification of phosphorylation sites in cellular proteins when coupled with LC tandem mass spectrometry. In this assay, PhosphoScan® (P-Tyr-100) mAb Beads are used to specifically enrich phospho-tyrosine-containing peptides. Cells are lysed in a urea-containing buffer, and cellular proteins are digested by proteases and fractionated by reversed-phase solid-phase extraction. Peptides are then subjected to immunoaffinity purification using PhosphoScan® (P-Tyr-100) mAb Beads. Overnight incubation ensures high-affinity binding of phospho-tyrosine-containing peptides to P-Tyr-100 beads. Unbound peptides are removed through washing, and phospho-tyrosine-containing peptides are eluted with dilute acid. Reversed-phase chromatography is performed on microtips to separate phosphopeptides from antibody and to concentrate them for LC tandem mass spectrometry.

Overview

Background

PhosphoScan® Kits, based on CST's published method (1), isolate large numbers of cellular phosphorylated peptides, allowing the investigator to obtain a global overview of phosphorylation in the cell, covering many classes of proteins without preconceived biases about where tyrosine phosphorylation sites will be found.

Tyrosine phosphorylation plays a key role in cellular signaling (2). In cancer, unregulated tyrosine kinase activity can drive malignancy and tumor formation by generating inappropriate proliferation and survival signals (3). Current phosphoproteomic approaches generally reveal only small numbers of tyrosine phosphorylation sites, in keeping with the low level of phosphotyrosine relative to phosphoserine and phosphothreonine residues (4). PhosphoScan® Kit, based on CST's published method (1,5), isolates large numbers of cellular phosphotyrosine-containing peptides. This allows the investigator to obtain a global overview of tyrosine phosphorylation in the cell, covering many classes of proteins without preconceived biases about where tyrosine phosphorylation sites will be found.
