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.

CK2 binds, phosphorylates, and regulates its pivotal substrate Cdc37, an Hsp90-cochaperone.

Miyata Y, Nishida E

Protein kinase CK2 phosphorylates and regulates a large number of substrates but roles of CK2 in protein kinase-mediated signal transduction systems remain largely uncertain. Cdc37 is a protein kinase-targeting molecular chaperone and its function in cooperation with Hsp90 is required for various signaling kinases. In this article, interaction between CK2 and Cdc37 is described. We present evidence indicating that phosphorylation ... [more]
