Title: Alternative visualization of SDS-PAGE separated phosphoproteins by alizarin red S-aluminum (III)-appended complex. Author: Wang X, Hwang SY, Cong WT, Jin LT, Choi JK. Journal: Electrophoresis; 2013 Jan; 34(2):235-43. PubMed ID: 23161533. Abstract: A novel fluorescence detection system using a chemosensor for phosphoprotein in gel electrophoretic analysis has been developed. The system employed the alizarin red S-aluminum (III)-appended complex as a fluorescent staining dye to perform the convenient and selective detection of phosphorylated proteins and total proteins in SDS-PAGE, respectively. Therefore, a full and selective map of proteins can be achieved in the same process without resorting to other compatible detection methods. As low as 62.5 ng of α- (seven or eight phosphates) and β-casein (five phosphates), 125 ng of ovalbumin (two phosphates), and κ-casein (one phosphate) can be detected in approximately 135 min, with the linear responses of rigorous quantitation of changes over a 125-4000 ng range. As a result, alizarin red S-aluminum (III) stain may provide a new choice for selective, economic, and convenient visualization of phosphoproteins.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
