Abstract
Antibodies that discriminate protein isoforms differing by modifications at specific amino acids have revolutionized studies of their functions. Skp1 is a novel nucleocytoplasmic glycoprotein that is hydroxylated at proline-143 and then O-glycosylated by a pentasaccharide attached via a GlcNAcα1, 4(trans)- hydroxyproline linkage. Skp1 isoform-specific antibodies were successfully obtained by immunizing
