Abstract
A new method for the selective and quantitative determination of phosphotyrosine residues is presented using a differential iodination technique. Characterization of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins was performed in a biological system using human U937 myeloid leukemia cells. The method is based on the saturation of free iodine binding sites using non-radioactive iodine. Samples are then treated with alkaline phosphatase. New iodine binding sites in dephosphorylated tyrosines are subsequently radio-iodinated, resulting in specific labeling of tyrosine phosphates. Separation is performed by RP-HPLC or sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Radiolabeled proteins are then identified using a radioactivity detector or autoradiography.
