Immunoprecipitation Using Mono-ADP-Ribosylation-Specific Antibodies

Methods Mol Biol. 2023:2609:135-146. doi: 10.1007/978-1-0716-2891-1_9.

Abstract

Immunoprecipitation is an essential methodology for enriching and purifying targeted proteins and peptides for in-depth analysis by any number of further techniques, from Western blotting to mass spectrometry (MS). Historically, the posttranslational modification ADP-ribosylation (ADPr) has been studied mainly in its polymerized form (poly-ADPr), but recent studies support the abundance and physiological relevance of mono-ADPr. Here, we describe several approaches to enrich mono-ADP-ribosylated proteins and peptides using mono-ADPr-specific antibodies, which can be tailored to a desired target and mode of downstream analysis.

Keywords: ADP-ribosylation; Antibodies; Cross-linking; Histones; Immunoprecipitation; Protein of interest.
