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 C-terminal cytoplasmic tail of hedgehog receptor Patched1 is a platform for E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes.

Yamaki Y, Kagawa H, Hatta T, Natsume T, Kawahara H

The Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway plays a crucial role in cell proliferation and differentiation via Patched1 (Ptc1), a 12-pass transmembrane receptor protein. The C-terminal cytoplasmic tail of Ptc1 can be cleaved to release the 7th intracellular domain (ICD7), whose function is still unclear. In this study, we found that the ICD7 fragment of Ptc1 associates with polyubiquitinated species. Using ... [more]
