A method was devised for the electrophoretic transfer of proteins from polyacrylamide gels to nitrocellulose sheets. The method results in quantitative transfer of ribosomal proteins [from Escherichia coli and chicken liver] from gels containing urea. For sodium dodecyl sulfate gels the original band pattern was obtained with no loss of resolution, but the transfer was not quantitative. The method allows detection of proteins by autoradiography and is simpler than conventional procedures. Immobilized proteins were detectable by immunological procedures. All additional binding capacity on the nitrocellulose was blocked with excess protein; then a specific antibody was bound and a 2nd antibody directed against the 1st antibody. The 2nd antibody was either radioactively labeled or conjugated to fluorescein or to peroxidase. The specific protein was then detected by either autoradiography under UV light or by the peroxidase reaction product, respectively. In the latter case, as little as 100 pg of protein was clearly detectable. The procedure should apply to analysis of a wide variety of proteins with specific reactions or ligands.
