Detection of phospho-proteins - (Mar/30/2010 )
Hi everyone,
I am trying to detect a changes in a phospho-protein that is in small abundance in my sample. Normally I have been running 20 ug per lane but have recently read that when detecting for phospho-proteins it is best to run a small amount of sample in order to detect differences across groups. This leads me to think that I should run 5-10 ug protein per lane. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? BTW I read this in some other forum and can't remember where I found it!

How are you detecting your phospho-proteins? are you using a gel staining kit or are you using an antibody?
