title: Iodination of soluble and membrane-bound proteins.
abstract: Coupling of radioactive (125)I to soluble proteins is a critical step in a number of immunoassays. Chloramine T-catalyzed iodination of soluble proteins, such as immunoglobulins, is described in this unit. Protocols using lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination of soluble or membrane-bound proteins are also described.
