Popis: | Here we describe a simple and fast microplate assay for 14-3-3 protein, which is based on the binding of 14-3-3 protein to a chemically synthesized peptide containing the phosphorylated recognition sequence of this protein. The peptide is covalently bound to maleimide-activated microplates through reaction of the sulfhydryl group of a N-terminal cysteine residue linked to the peptide. The peptide- 14-3-.3 complexes formed are detected using--as a second recognition principle--an anti-14-3-3 protein antibody. This assay was used for measurement of 14-3-3 protein in brain (bovine) and in cerebrospinal fluid from patients with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) and control cases with diseases other than CJD. This novel assay allowed also the detection of low 14-3-3 protein levels present in cerebrospinal fluid, without further concentration, in contrast to conventional immunoblotting or immunoassay procedures. |
