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.

N-myc downstream regulated gene 1(NDRG1) promotes the stem-like properties of lung cancer cells through stabilized c-Myc.

Wang Y, Zhou Y, Tao F, Chai S, Xu X, Yang Y, Yang Y, Xu H, Wang K

Tumor-initiating cells (TICs) play an important role in tumorigenesis and development for many various tissue origin cancers including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the mechanism to maintain TICs in NSCLC is still largely unknown. Here, we evaluated differences of mRNA expression between parental and oncosphere cells that enriched TICs. We found that N-myc downstream regulated gene 1(NDRG1) was upregulated ... [more]
