For identification of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins, monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) against artificial immunogens containing O-phosphotyrosine (pTyr) or tripeptide pTyr-Gly-Gly as haptens were generated; the haptens were coupled to carrier proteins (bovine serum albumin, human immunoglobulin, keyhole limpet hemocyanin). After immunization of mice with pTyr coupled to keyhole limpet hemocyanin, Mabs were generated which were highly specific for pTyr and did not cross-react with O-phosphoserine, O-phosphothreonine, tyrosine or nucleoside-5'-monophosphates.
