After the separation gel was solidified, the isopropano was poured out, and the residual liquid was sucked out by filter paper. Prepared stacking gel with a mass concentration of 5% was added to the separation gel, and a comb was inserted immediately. After the gel was completely solidified, the comb was pulled out and a sampling hole was washed with water. An electrophoresis device was fixed, a Tris-glycine electrophoresis buffer solution was added, and 20 L of sample and pre-stained Marker were added in sequence. The electrophoresis device was connected to a power supply, a voltage was adjusted to 80 V, when bromophenol blue migrates to the separation gel, the voltage was adjusted to 110 V, and when the bromophenol blue migrates to the bottom of the separation gel, the power supply was turned off. (3) Film transfer: the gel was taken down, the stacking gel and the redundant part were removed, and the gel was completely soaked in a newly prepared film transfer buffer solution; four pieces of filter paper and one PVDF film with the same sizes as the gel were cut, and one corner of the film was labeled with a pencil; the PVDF film was soaked in 100% methanol for about 1 min to be activated, and then the PVDF film was soaked in the film transfer buffer solution; a cathode plate of a transfer device was laid flat, a layer of sponge soaked in the film transfer buffer solution was placed, two layers of filter paper soaked in the film transfer buffer solution was placed on the sponge neatly, and a glass rod was used to drive out bubbles; with the black side of a film transfer clip facing down, the film transfer clip was immersed in the film transfer buffer solution, and the black sponge, the two layers of filter paper, the gel, the film (activated with methanol for 1 min in advance, label the front and back on the upper right corner, and reversely attach to the film), the two layers of filter paper and the black sponge were placed from bottom to top in order to ensure that there were no bubbles between the film and the gel, and the film was completely attached; and the gel was clipped with the film transfer clip. The fixed film transfer clip was placed into the film transfer tank, the film transfer tank was filled with the film transfer buffer solution, and finally the film transfer tank was placed into a foam box filled with ice, a constant current of 180 mA was set, and the film was transferred for 2.5 h (black to black, red to red, pay attention to the direction of the electrode). (4) Sealing: the electrically transferred PVDF film was taken out, washed with TBST once, and sealed by a shaker at room temperature for 1 h using milk with a concentration of 5%. (5) Primary antibody incubation: the phosphorylated antibody at the Ser23 site of the PGAM1 protein was diluted with a primary antibody diluent at a ratio of 1:1000; and the sealed PVDF film was taken out, rinsed with TBST for 2 min, and then incubated in a primary antibody at 4 C. overnight (16 h). (6) Washing: the PVDF film was washed with TBST for 5 time, with 5 min each time; (7) Secondary antibody incubation: the PVDF film was put into a secondary antibody (1:5000) labeled with horseradish peroxidase diluted using milk with a concentration of 5%, and incubated at room temperature for 1 h; (8) Washing: the PVDF film was washed with TBST for 5 time, with 5 min each time; (9) Development: an ECL AB solution was mixed at a volume ratio of 1:1 (0.5 mL each), and uniformly poured on the PVDF film, a developing cassette was wetted and dried with clean toilet paper, the film was spread in the cassette, and bubbles were removed; and after 5 min of development, the film was taken to a darkroom, a photographic film of the corresponding size was cut and stuck on the film, and the exposure time was determined according to the fluorescence intensity; (10) Film development: after the exposure was completed, the film was placed in a developer for 1-3 min, rinsed with clean water, placed in a fixer for about 9 min, and finally baked in an oven, a target band was determined according to the marker and the results were analyzed.

(61) The test result is shown in FIG. 10, which indicates that in the immunoprecipitation product, the phosphorylated antibody at the Ser23 site (PGAM1 S23) can recognize the PGAM1 protein in the phosphorylation state at the Ser23 site, but cannot recognize the PGAM1 protein in the non-phosphorylation state at the Ser23 site, which proves that the specificity of the phosphorylated antibody is good.

(62) To sum up, The phosphorylated antibody with good specificity may be prepared from the phosphorylated antigen at the Ser23 site of the PGAM1 protein provided in the examples of the present application, and therefore, the phosphorylated antigen provided by the present application fills in the gap in the prior art that there is no specific phosphorylated antigen at a Ser23 site of a PGAM1 protein at present.

(63) Meanwhile, the phosphorylated antibody at the Ser23 site of the PGAM1 protein provided in the examples of the present application is convenient for researching the correlation of the phosphorylation modification of the specific site of the PGAM1 protein in specific biological events such as immune cell activation, cell metabolism reprogramming, and cell cycle in practical application.

(64) Meanwhile, the phosphorylated antibody at the Ser23 site of the PGAM1 protein provided in the examples of the present application may also be used to research the polyclonal antibody phosphorylated at the Ser23 site of the PGAM1 protein, which is helpful for discussing various biological functions of the PGAM1 protein.

(65) Moreover, the phosphorylated antibody at the Ser23 site of the PGAM1 protein provided in the examples of the present application is helpful for discussing the action mechanism of the phosphorylation modification of the PGAM1 protein in the occurrence and development processes of diseases such as autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, and tumors, and may also be used for evaluating the change of tumor metabolic level under different treatment conditions, thereby providing a potential action target for the diagnosis and treatment of clinical tumor diseases.
