Multiplex Assays for Signal Transduction Research Navigate Signaling Pathways These assays make it possible to simultaneously examine multiple phosphorylation events involving upstream or downstream molecules in one or more cellular signaling pathways. Multiplexing thus enables you to maximize the information obtained from a single sample by permitting the analysis of more than one target protein at a time, with minimal sample volume requirements and minimal hands-on time. Whether you’re evaluating the phosphorylation states of specific phosphoproteins or the expression levels of total target proteins, it’s now quicker and easier to get the data you’re looking for.

Chart Phosphorylation Events Bio-Plex phosphoprotein assays and Bio-Plex total target assays are bead-based multiplexable assays that detect the phosphorylation and expression of proteins in lysates derived from cell culture or tissue samples. These 96-well microplate-formatted assays allow profiling of the specific phosphorylation states and expression levels of multiple proteins using only two wells and as little as 25 µl of lysate per well. The Bio-Plex total target assay reports the abundance of the target protein in one well, while the Bio-Plex phosphoprotein assay reports the phosphorylation level of the same protein in a separate well. 15,000 35,000 30,000 12,000 25,000 25,000 20,000 9,000 20,000 15,000 15,000 10,000 MFI 6,000 10,000 5,000 3,000 0 p-c-Jun 5,000 p-ERK1/2 0 0 p-MEK1 p-GSK-3a/b HEK 293 NIH 3T3 p-p53 10 5 2.5 1.25 0.63 0.31 HeLa UV/HEK 293 /HeLa p-JNK HeLa UV/COS /HeLa /HeLa EGF/HEK 293 a /HeLa a a Total protein, µg a UV/COS -NGF/PC-12IL-6/U-937 NIH 3T3 PDGF/NIHb 3T3 IL-4/HeLa HEK 293 IL-4/HeLa IFN- IFN- IL-6/U-937 TNF- TNF- UV/HEK 293 -NGF/PC-12 EGF/HEK 293 b PDGF/NIH 3T3 Bio-Plex 6-plex phosphoprotein assay analysis.

    CASEIN KINASE 1 ISOFORMS IN DEGENERATIVE DISORDERS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Theresa Joseph Kannanayakal, M.Sc., M.S. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Jeff A. Kuret, Adviser Professor John D. Oberdick Professor Dale D. Vandre Adviser Professor Mike X. Zhu Biophysics Graduate Program ABSTRACT Casein Kinase 1 (CK1) enzyme is one of the largest family of Serine/Threonine protein kinases. CK1 has a wide distribution spanning many eukaryotic families. In cells, its kinase activity has been found in various sub-cellular compartments enabling it to phosphorylate many proteins involved in cellular maintenance and disease pathogenesis. Tau is one such substrate whose hyperphosphorylation results in degeneration of neurons in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). AD is a slow neuroprogessive disorder histopathologically characterized by Granulovacuolar degeneration bodies (GVBs) and intraneuronal accumulation of tau in Neurofibrillary Tangles (NFTs). The level of CK1 isoforms, CK1α, CK1δ and CK1ε has been shown to be elevated in AD. Previous studies of the correlation of CK1δ with lesions had demonstrated its importance in tau hyperphosphorylation. Hence we investigated distribution of CK1α and CK1ε with the lesions to understand if they would play role in tau hyperphosphorylation similar to CK1δ. The kinase results were also compared with lesion correlation studies of peptidyl cis/trans prolyl isomerase (Pin1) and caspase-3. Our results showed that among the enzymes investigated, CK1 isoforms have the greatest extent of colocalization with the lesions. We have also investigated the distribution of CK1α with different stages of NFTs that follow AD progression.

MAP kinases also elicit an intracellular effect in response to physical and Toxicology chemical cellular stress. MAP kinase cascades within the cell are composed of a series of proteins, the first of which is a MAP kinase kinase kinase Vascular (MAPKKK).1 The MAPKKK is activated by phosphorylation in response to growth factors, mitogens, inflammatory cytokines, G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) or stress. The MAPKKK in turn phosphorylates MAPKK, which then phosphorylates MAPK.2 The activated terminal MAPK translocates into the nucleus, thereby exerting an effect on gene transcription. Through these pathways, the cell regulates responses leading to cell Catalog Numbers proliferation and differentiation, development, inflammation, and cell survival or apoptosis.2 ERK1/2, p38, and JNK are all MAP kinases, activated by the MAPK kinases MEK1/2, MKK3/6, and MKK4/7, respectively.2 Because these pathways are critical for the regulation of cell growth and survival, MAP Kinase 3 Phosphoprotein Assay: the MAP kinase family of enzymes offers desirable targets for the development of anti-cancer therapeutics.

CK1 members, which commonly exist in all eukaryotes, are involved in the regulation of many cellular processes linked to cell cycle progression, spindle- dynamics, and chromosome segregation. Additionally, CK1 regulate key signaling pathways such as Wnt (Wingless/ Int-1), Hh (Hedgehog), and Hippo, known to be critically involved in tumor progression. Considering the importance of CK1 for accurate cell division and regulation of tumor suppressor functions, it is not surprising scientific effort has enormously increased. In mammals, CK1 regulate the transition from interphase to metaphase in mitosis. In budding yeast and fission yeast, CK1 phosphorylate Rec8 subunits of cohesin complex and regulate chromosome segregation in meiosis. During meiosis, two rounds of chromosome segregation after a single round of DNA replication produce haploid gametes from diploid precursors. Any mistake in chromosome segregation may result in aneuploidy, which in meiosis are one of the main causes of infertility, abortion and many genetic diseases in humans.

  • Stability of Phosphoprotein As a Biological Marker of Tumor Signaling Amanda F
    Imaging, Diagnosis, Prognosis Stability of Phosphoprotein as a Biological Marker of Tumor Signaling Amanda F. Baker,1Tomislav Dragovich,1Nathan T.Ihle,1RyanWilliams,1 Cecilia Fenoglio-Preiser,2 and Garth Powis1 Abstract Purpose:The purpose of the study was to evaluate the stability of phosphoprotein as a marker of signaling activity in human tumors using clinical samples and xenografts. Experimental Design: The expression of phospho-Ser473-Akt (p-Akt) was assessed by immunohistochemistry in paraffin-embedded samples from patients enrolled in a Southwest Oncology Group clinical trial of gastroesophageal junction tumors and by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting in human colon tumor xenografts at various times after removal from the animal. Results: Clinical samples had evaluable p-Akt staining only when obtained as biopsies (9 of 13) and no staining was observed in tumors obtained as surgically resected samples (0 of 15). In HT- 29 colon cancer xenografts, p-Akt staining was present in fresh sample but not in tissue that had been allowed to stand for 30 minutes at room temperature.Western blotting of HT-29 tumor xen- ografts at room temperature showed a slow decrease in total Akt with a half-life of 180 minutes and a rapid decrease in p-Akt with a half-life of 20 minutes. Conclusions: Caution should be used when using phosphoprotein levels in human tumor speci- mens to measure intrinsic signaling activity or drug effects because of the potential for rapid de- phosphorylation. Rapid processing of biopsies is essential and postoperative surgical samples may be of limited value because of the time to fixation.

Hufnagel Lenore M. Martin Roberta King Nasser H.

Evidence in the literature suggests that P0 may be involved in diseases such as malaria and systemic lupus erythematosus. We are interested in the possibility that the P0 of the “ciliated protozoa” Tetrahymena thermophila may be useful as a model system for vaccine research and drug development.

Total, unique and shared number of phosphorylation sites are indicated. 3.0E+07 4744 5095 y 5968 Abstract t Protein Discovery Initiative PhosphoSITE Phospho.ELM i 2.5E+07 5120 s Protein n e total(unique/shared) total(unique/shared) total(unique/shared) t 4508 5141 n I 2.0E+07 β−PIX 16(13/3) 6(3/3) 2(1/1) 1.5E+07 5869 CORTACTIN 18(12/6) 25(19/6) 8(7/1) The Protein Discovery Initiative goal is to develop a census of the migration proteome by FAK 25(19/6) 14(8/6) 11(7/4) 1.0E+07 4222 5492 identifying interactions and post-translational modifications, i.e. phosphorylation, of novel 3064 GIT1 32(25/7) 10(3/7) 4(1/3) 0.5E+07 3020 3184 3806 PAK 3(0/3) 11(8/3) 1(1/0) molecules involved in cell migration.
