Abstract:
Method for detection of protein kinase activity in polyacrylamide gel have been developed. After separation of proteins by isoelectric focusing in non-denaturing condition, gel was incubated in a reaction buffer containing [gamma-32P]ATP. 32P-labeled proteins were separated by subsequent SDS/PAGE electrophoresis in second dimension. The proposed method was used for detection of protein kinase activity in human blood serum and triton X-100 soluble proteins of heads of Drosophila melanogaster.

Two-dimensional Gel Electrophoresis
The first dimension separation uses the isoelectric focusing or IEF technique performed on immobilized pH gradient (IPG) strips that separate proteins according to their isoelectric points.

SDS-PAGE
A variation of gel electrophoresis, termed polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), is commonly used for separating proteins according to their molecular size by passing them through a polyacrylamide gel. Because of the varying charges associated with amino acid side chains, PAGE can be used to separate intact proteins...
DNA Agarose Gel Electrophoresis
Gel extraction follows five major steps: running gel electrophoresis to separate fragments, isolating the individual bands, extracting DNA from those bands, and removing the dye and salts from the extracted mixture to obtain pure DNA.
In cloning experiments, both the insert and vector DNA...
Western Blotting
The technique begins with separating proteins from the sample using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), followed by protein transfer, immunoblotting, and finally, protein detection.
