ABSTRACT
Prenylation and palmitoylation are two major lipid modifications of cellular proteins that anchor proteins to cell membranes. Here, we present a protocol for detecting these modifications in cellular proteins by radioactive metabolic labeling. We describe steps for metabolic labeling of cells, cell harvesting for carrying out immunoprecipitations, subjecting immunocomplexes to SDS-PAGE, and transferring them to polyvinylidine flouride (PVDF) membranes. We then detail detection of labeled target proteins by exposing PVDF membranes to phosphor screens and using a phosphor imager machine. For complete details of this protocol, please refer to Liang et al.1.
