Zusammenfassung:The invention involves a method for measuring phosphorylation of proteins and, as such, is an indicator of protein kinase activity. The method involves the in vitro phosphorylation of a target protein but subjecting that protein (non-phosphorylated) to reaction mixture containing all reagents, including phosphokinase which allow the creation of a phosphorylated form of protein. The phostphorylated protein is measured by contacting it with an antibody specific for the phosphorylation site(s). The invention includes antibodies useful in practicing the methods of the invention. The invention particularly relates to phosphorylation of Tau, Rb and EGFR proteins and antibodies specific for the site of phosphorylation of the Tau, Rb or EGFR proteins.
