Frasch S C, Dworkin M

Abstract excerpt

Tyrosine phosphorylation is an extremely rare event in prokaryotes, occurring almost exclusively in multicellular eukaryotes. We have identified, for the first time, by the use of antiphosphotyrosine monoclonal antibody and Western blot (immunoblot) analysis, two tyrosine-phosphorylated membrane...
