Fig. 5. One-dimensional phosphopeptide mapping analysis of erythroid ankyrin
isoforms. Ankyrin immunoprecipitates were prepared from the detergent soluble
(lanes 1-3) and insoluble fractions (lanes 4-8) of control (lanes 5-8) or
calyculin A treated erythroid cells (lanes 1-4). Some of the precipitates were
prepared from cells labeled with 32P-orthophosphate (lanes 3-5).
The remaining precipitates, which were prepared from unlabeled cells, were
phosphorylated in vitro by the coprecipitating kinase (lanes 2, 6 and 7) or by
purified CK2 (lanes 1 and 8). In each instance, the precipitates were resolved
on a 6% SDS polyacrylamide gel, and the gel was stained with GelCode Blue. The
indicated ankyrin isoforms were excised from the gel, electroeluted, and the
eluted proteins were digested with V8 endoproteinase. The resulting
phosphopeptides were analyzed on 18% SDS polyacrylamide gels. The gels were
dried, and 32P-labeled peptides were detected by autoradiography.
Molecular weight markers are indicated to the left of the figure.
