Generation of carboxy-terminally deleted forms of STAT5 during preparation of cell extracts

Exp Cell Res. 1999 Jan 10;246(1):148-51. doi: 10.1006/excr.1998.4289.

Abstract

Carboxy-terminally deleted forms of STAT5 have been described to be generated in vivo either by proteolytic processing or by differential splicing mechanisms. By comparing two different cell extraction procedures, we can show that in the mammary gland carboxy-terminally deleted forms are produced in vitro and are not detectable in extracts prepared by SDS lysis.
