Precise Quantification of Platelet Proteins and Their Phosphorylation States

Methods Mol Biol. 2018:1812:113-125. doi: 10.1007/978-1-4939-8585-2_7.

Abstract

Systems biology and modeling approaches require quantitative data-rich temporal experiments to better understand the dynamics and regulation of the components of the signaling pathways that governs cell biology and physiology. Here we present a modified Western blotting method to rapidly analyze and accurately quantify protein copy number, and their respective phosphorylation states at specific sites over detailed time courses.

Keywords: High-density; Immunoblotting; Protein quantification; Western.
