title: Mapping of a small phosphopeptide at the carboxyterminus of the viral myb protein by monoclonal antibodies.
abstract: Several myb-specific monoclonal antibodies were produced and their antigen recognition sites characterized using a series of bacterially expressed truncated myb proteins. The monoclonal antibodies were used for analysing the in vivo phosphorylation site of the oncogene protein from avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV), p48v-myb. The p48v-myb protein labeled metabolically with [32P]orthophosphate was isolated from the AMV-transformed chicken myeloblast cell line BM-2 by immunoaffinity chromatography. Phosphoamino acid analysis indicated that it was phosphorylated mainly on serine and to a lesser extent (less than 5%) on threonine residues. Indirect immunoprecipitation of phosphopeptides from trypsin-digested [32P]-labeled purified p48v-myb protein by use of the myb-specific monoclonal antibodies allowed the mapping of a small phosphopeptide at the carboxyterminus of p48v-myb.
