title: A general immunochemical method for detecting proteins on blots.
abstract: Following horizontal electroelution, or blotting, of proteins from polyacrylamide gels to immobilizing matrices, such as nitrocellulose or Zeta-bind paper, the transferred proteins can be derivatized in situ with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and sodium borohydride. After a quenching step to eliminate nonspecific binding of antibody to the protein-binding matrix, the blot is incubated with a solution containing a mouse monoclonal antibody specific for the 5'-phosphopyridoxyl group. The transferred proteins can then be located on the blot with second antibody staining procedures employing either a peroxidase-linked goat anti-mouse F(ab')2 antibody or a peroxidase-linked avidin/biotin system. The solid-phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method described in this report is a mild, general, and sensitive immunochemical method for the detection of proteins on protein-binding matrices.
