Create pairs of images to Flicker Compare from protein phosphorylation studies in mouse T lymphocytes







Introduction

Three sets of images of murine T cell phosphoproteins were chosen that illustrate: 1) alterations in phosphorylation during the cell cycle, 2) the differential regulation of tyrosine-phosphorylation in cells grown in IL2 or IL4, and 3) the differential regulation of 32P-labelled proteins in cells grown in IL2 or IL4.

I. Cell-cycle specific phosphorylation

The first pair of images demonstrate differences in protein phosphorylation at different stages of the cell cycle. CT.4R cells were labeled with 32P-orthophosphate prior to lysis and analysis as previously described. The first image (59g-PPDB-G1-phase) represents proteins from cells enriched in the G1-phase of the cell cycle, while the second image (59h-PPDB-G2/M phase) represents cells in late G2 and M.

II. Tyrosine phosphorylation during growth in IL2 and IL4

The second pair of images are of CT.4R cells grown in IL4 or IL2. Tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins were visualized by Western blotting. The first image (68dpy-PPDB-IL4) is derived from cells grown in IL4 and the second image (68epy-PPDB-IL2) from cells grown in IL2.

III. Total protein phosphorylation during growth in IL2 and IL4

The third pair of images are of CT.4R cells grown in IL4 or IL2. Cells were labeled with 32P-orthophosphate prior to analysis. The first image (68dpy-PPDB-IL4) is derived from cells grown in IL4 and the second image (68epy-PPDB-IL2) is from cells grown in IL2.


These 2D PAGE gel images are from a larger study of the regulation of protein phosphoprotein by IL2 and IL4 in murine T cells that was initially supported by the American Cancer Society and the Arthritis Foundation. A phosphoprotein database of some of the proteins identified in these gels is under construction. The six images of phosphoproteins linked to in this page are Copyright © 1997 by P.V. Hornbeck, All Rights Reserved.

These gels are in the 2DWG meta-database. You can get a phosphoprotein gel subset of the 2DWG.


Select two gels and go flicker compare them:

1. First select a different image from each menu. Note: you can only compare different images (not an image against itself).
2. Then press Go Flicker to generate a Flicker comparison of this pair of images.
3. After the images have finished loading, scroll through each lower image (in turn) by pressing the Control key and then click on a region, in the Right or Left image, you want to center in the scroll window. Set each image to be in about the same place.

Flicker Image Comparison: Flicker is a Java program for comparing two images. See the Flicker home page for more information on Flicker.
