Fig. 2. Western blot analysis of the quantity of pEg7, topoII and XCAP-E in the
synchronized cells of different stages of cell cycle. (A) After
electrophoresis and transfer onto nitrocellulose, the membrane was cut, the
upper part was incubated with antibodies to topoII, the second part with a
mixture of pEg7 and the third part with monoclonal antibodies against
ß-tubulin and the last part with monoclonal antibodies against pEg2
(clone 1C1). Immunocomplexes were revealed using an enhanced chemoluminescence
system. (B) Relative quantities of protein during the cell cycle
(protein:ß-tubulin ratio, with the ratio in G1 equal to 1). The level of
cycle-dependent protein kinase pEg2 increased from 1 at G1 to
15.44±3.21 at M phase; the quantity of topoII was maximal in G2 phase
(3.61±1.22) and practically the same in mitosis (3.52±1.04). The
quantity of pEg7 and XCAP-E increased from 1 at G1 to 1.48±0.09 and
1.48±0.04 times at M phase, respectively. Average data from four
measurements from two experiments are presented. Quantitative analysis was
performed using Image Quant computer program.
