ANTIBODIES
(anti-Human and others as indicated)
RDI Division of Fitzgerald Industries Intl offers a wide line of antibodies. Since no one antibody works best for all applications (neutralization, blotting, histochemistry, ELISA, etc), we offer many different types of antibodies to help solve this problem. Please inquire for other applications or types of antibodies not listed below.

Sample Product Specs:
Product: Affinity Isolated Rabbit Anti-Phosphothreonine Antibodies (anti-pT)
Catalog: RDI-PHOSTHRabr $188.00/50ug
-also available Biotin labeled: cat#RDI-PHOSTHRR-BT $250.00/50ug
Immunogen: KLH-phosphothreonine conjugates
Purification: Immunoaffinity chromatography with phosphothreonine-agarose
Presentation: 50ug in 0.125ml (400ug/ml) in PBS with 0.05% NaN3
Strorage: at 4 DEG C, do not freeze
Specificity & Reactivity: Both antigen-capture and antibody-capture ELISA
indicated that the anti-phosphothreonine antibodies can recognize
threonine-phosphorylated protein, phosphothreonine and
lysine-phosphothreonine-glysine random polymer, respectively. Direct, competitive
antigen-capture ELISA demonstrated that the antibodies are specifically inhibited
by free phosphothreonine, phosvitin but not by free phosphoserine,
phosphotyrosine, threonine and ATP.
Sensitivity: Detecting 100 ng of phosvitin and active ERK1 with immunoblotting,
0.5 ng of phosvitin with ELISA
Applications: ELISA (kinase assay), 0.5ug/mL; Western blot (0.5ug/ml if using
non chemiluminescence detection system, if using chemiluminescence, recommend
tittering from 1-0.4ug/ml) , 4ug/mL; IP, 10ug/500ug protein sample
USE: non-radioactive protein kinase assay (ELISA) using biotinylated peptide
substrate; immunoblotting of BSA-peptide substrate conjugates phosphorylated
by kinase; Immunoblotting of abundant phosphoprotein. Not recommend for
immunoblotting of trace cellular phosphoprotein (enhanced chemiluminescence
detection may be required). Acetone precipitation of the protein extract
followed by SDS denaturation is recommended for successful immunoprecipitation.
Positive Ctrl: Mouse brain extract for immunoblotting. Phosvitin for ELISA
Note: For research use only.
Rabbit anti-Phosphoserine (pS) and rabbit anti-Phosphthreonine (pT)
antibodies
The positive control for IP:
anti-pS: phosphorylated tau protein in brain sample, biotinylated phosvitin
anti-pT: active ERK1/2 (44/42 Kd), CamK (56, 46 Kd) in the brain sample.
Procedure Immunoprecipitation of Phosphoprotein with Affinity Purified Anti-pS
and Anti-pT
1. Materials: affinity isolated anti-pS and anti-pT (400 ug/mL in PBS); 50mM
Tris (pH.8.5); beta glycerolphosphate (Sigma cat#G6251, phosphatase inhibitor));
IP buffer (50 mM Tris, 0.05% NP40, 100 mM NaCl, 0.25% Na-deoxycholate, 1
mM EDTA, 1 mM PMSF, 1 ug/mL of aprotonin, pepstatin and leupeptin, 1 mM NaF,
final pH 7.5); protein A agarose (blocked with 5% BSA)
2. Preparation of the mouse brain extract.
Cut 0.5 gram of mouse brain sample into small pieces in 5 mL of the IP buffer
plus 10 mg of beta glycerolphosphate (2mg/ml in final concentration). Homogenize
the tissue at 20,000 rpm for 5-10 seconds. Repeat the homogenization
several times 5 min interval. Keep the tissue on ice all the time.
a) Transfer the homogensate to a 10 mL centrifuge tube and centrifuge at15,000
rpm at 4 DEG C for 45 min.
b) Using a needle to puncture the bottom of the tube (above the pellet) and
collect 2.5 mL of the supernatant. Avoid the collection of the fat layer
on top of the tube. Check protein concentration (should be greater than 5
mg/mL)
c) Acidify the extract with 25 uL of the concentrated phosphoric acid.Allow
the inactivation of the enzyme for 2 hr.
d) Add at least five volume of acetone to precipitate the proteins in the
extract.
e) Centrifuge the acetone mixture at 5000 rpm at 4 DEG C. Discard the solution
and wash the pellet with acetone twice. Try to remove as much phospholipid
and acid as possible using acetone.
f) Crunch the pellet with a pipette tip and reconstitute the pellet in 0.5
mL of distill water. Add 50 uL of the beta glycerolphosphate in 50 mM Tris
buffer (pH8.5) and heat (50-80oC) for 10 min.
g) Centrifuge the mixture at 15,000 rpm for 30 min. Collect the supernatant
for IP or store at -20oC for future use.
3. Immunoprecipitation
a) Take 100 uL approximately 500 ug total brain proteins into a microcentrifuge
tube. Check final pH (7.5-8.0) or adjust pH with phosphoric acid and Tris.
Add 5 uL of isopropanol in the tube.
b) Add 20 ug of anti-pT or anti-pS in the tube, vortex. Allow the bind at 4-8 DEG C overnight.
c) Add 20 uL of protein A agarose to the tube and adjust the final volume to 500 uL with IP buffer
d) Incubate the mixture in a rotary rack for 2 hrs.
e) Wash the protein A beads with IP buffer 4 times.
f) Add 50-100 uL 4% SDS sample loading buffer and heat at 50-80 DEG C for 2- 5 min.
h) Load the slurry to SDS-PAGE for western blot analysis
cat#RDI-PHOSTHabm $688.00/vial 0.5ml
-clone ref# PTR-8
-mouse IgG2b
--as determined in Elisa and immunoblot, the antibody reacts specifically with phosphorylated threonine, both as free amino acid or conjugated to carriers as BSA or KLH. No cross reactivity is observed with non-phosphorylated threonine, phophoserine, phosphotyrosine, AmpMP or ATP.
-can be used in immunoblotting for the localization of some phosphosthreonine-containing proteins. Certain proteins known to contain phosphorylated threonine may not be recognized by this antibody due to steric hindrance at the recognition site.
-approx use dilution of 1:50 by immunoblotting and 1:2000 in indirect Elisa.
-also available biotin labelled, cat#RDI-PHOSTHabm-Bt $625.00/0.5ml
-negative inhibitory control cat#RDI-PHOSTH-BSA $125.00/0.2ml
