Affinity Capture-MS

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 is identified by mass spectrometric methods.

Although clinically associated with the progression of multiple cancers, the biological function of p21-activated kinase 5 (PAK5) in breast cancer remains largely unknown. Here, we reveal that the PAK5-aspartyl aminopeptidase (DNPEP)-ubiquitin-specific protease 4 (USP4) axis is involved in breast cancer progression. We show that PAK5 interacts with and phosphorylates DNPEP at serine 119. Functionally, we demonstrate that DNPEP overexpression suppresses ... [more]
