Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A – B ) 293 cells were transfected with Flag-IL-17RA and its mutants and labeled with 32 P orthophosphate; autoradiography ( 32 P) followed by IB. ( C ) IL-17RA peptide phosphorylated at T780 (p-Peptide) was treated with CIP, while IL-17RA peptide with wild-type T780 (Peptide) or with mutant T780A (mut-Peptide) were treated with recombinant GSK3, followed with dot blot analysis using B4 antibodies. ( D – E ) Flag-IL-17RA, Flag-IL-17RAT780A mutant, or empty vector was transfected into 293 cells; HeLa cells were not transfected; IP with anti-Flag, B4 (+), or control IgG (−), followed by IB; *indicates endogenous P-IL-17RA.
Article Snippet: The antibodies and peptides used are as follows: rabbit anti-human phospho-IL-17RA (T780) polyclonal antibodies (B1, B2, B3, and B4), phosphorylated antigen peptide (C-LTDPH(pT)PYEEEQ) and non-phosphorylated antigen peptide (C-LTDPHTPYEEEQ) were produced through a contract by AbMART (Shanghai) CO., LTD., Shanghai, China.
