Product Description

PTMScan^® Technology employs a proprietary methodology from Cell Signaling Technology (CST) for peptide enrichment by immunoprecipitation using a specific bead-conjugated antibody in conjunction with liquid chromatography (LC) tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) for quantitative profiling of post-translational modification (PTM) sites in cellular proteins. These include phosphorylation (PhosphoScan^®), ubiquitination (UbiScan^®), acetylation (AcetylScan^®), and methylation (MethylScan^™), among others. PTMScan^® Technology enables researchers to isolate, identify, and quantitate large numbers of post-translationally modified cellular peptides with a high degree of specificity and sensitivity, providing a global overview of PTMs in cell and tissue samples without preconceived biases about where these modified sites occur (1).

Background

Nitric oxide (NO) is implicated in carcinogenesis (1), chronic infection, inflammation (2), and neurodegeneration (3). High levels of both superoxide and NO in tissues interact to form peroxynitrite, a potent oxidant that can modify Tyr residues in proteins to form 3-nitro-tyrosine (4). Tyrosine nitration of mitochondrial manganese superoxide dismutase results in loss of enzymatic activity (4). The nitration of p53 at Tyr residues abolishes its capacity for binding to its DNA consensus sequence (5).

Species Reactivity

Species reactivity is determined by testing in at least one approved application (e.g., western blot).
