Abstract

Mammalian ARTCs are expressed as glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored ectoenzymes (ARTC1–ARTC4) or secretory proteins (ARTC5) by different cell types. The ARTC2 enzymes catalyze mono-ADP-ribosylation of arginine residues in the extracellular domain of membrane proteins or secretory proteins. In this chapter we provide protocols to monitor the expression and activity of ARTCs on the cell membrane of living cells and in soluble form in biological fluids.
