Antibody LabB Cell Ligand Screen Quantify ligand-induced changes in site-specific phosphorylation of selected signaling proteins Erica Turon, technician and Heping Han, Lead Scientist
Antibody LabB Cell Ligand Screen • Aim: sample diversity of responses to inputs • Approach: Probe Western blots with mixture of site specific, phosphorylation sensitive antibodies • Goal: resolve and quantify 5-7 phosphoproteins per lane of gel • Progress: 2 mixtures of antibodies for 11 phosphoproteins

Imaging • No film or radioactivity • ECL Plus (has fluorescent by-product) • Imager detects fluorescence • ImageQuant software to save image Biren Zhao with Storm 860 Imager from Molecular Dynamics
Quantification • Nick Wong: searched for better software, implemented • ImageMaster: Automatically finds lanes, semi-automatic for bands
Interleukin 4 Phosphorylation of Stat 6 • 50 fold increase in phosphorylation of Stat6 • Single scale: Cannot see changes in phosphorylation of other proteins
Interleukin 4 • Two y axes scaled differently • Reveals phosphorylation of Akt (fuscia)
Additional Ligands:Gi-mediated Responses • Sphingosine 1-phosphate and Chemokines: SDF, BLC, ELC, SLC • Increased phosphorylation of Akt, ERKs and p90RSK with • max. response at first time point • More rapid initial decline of ERKs • Time course pattern similar to B cell receptor • Gq, Gs pathways: no effect of terbutaline, PGE2, LPA, 2-MA

Phosphoprotein Antibody Mix 4Responses to Anti-CD40 • Early response: phosphorylation of NFkB p65 • JNKs: • delayed response (similar to ERKs and Akt) • separate y axis
Phosphoprotein Antibody Mix 4Responses to IL-4 and Anti-IgM • IL-4: Rate of Stat 3 phosphorylation slower than Stat 6 • Anti-IgM: modest responses
Phosphoprotein Antibody Mix 4Ligand Screen • Anti-IgM, Anti-CD40 and IL-4 quantified • n=2 for data shown • Data on website soon Becky Fulin, Technician
