Affinity Capture-Western

An interaction is inferred when a bait protein is affinity captured from cell extracts by either polyclonal antibody or epitope tag and the associated interaction partner identified by Western blot with a specific polyclonal antibody or second epitope tag. This category is also used if an interacting protein is visualized directly by dye stain or radioactivity. Note that this differs from any co-purification experiment involving affinity capture in that the co-purification experiment involves at least one extra purification step to get rid of potential contaminating proteins.

The eukaryotic elongation factor eEF1A1 interacts with SAMHD1.

Morrissey C, Schwefel D, Ennis-Adeniran V, Taylor IA, Crow YJ, Webb M

Mutations in SAMHD1 cause Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome (AGS), a Mendelian inflammatory disease which displays remarkable clinical and biochemical overlap with congenital viral infection. SAMHD1 (SAM domain and HD domain-containing protein 1) has also been defined as an HIV-1 restriction-factor that, through a novel triphosphohydrolase activity, inhibits early stage HIV-1 replication in myeloid-derived dendritic cells (MDDCs), macrophages and resting CD4+ T-cells. The ... [more]
