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.

Regulation of MAGE-A3/6 by the CRL4-DCAF12 ubiquitin ligase and nutrient availability.

Ravichandran R, Kodali K, Peng J, Potts PR

Melanoma antigen genes (MAGEs) are emerging as important oncogenic drivers that are normally restricted to expression in male germ cells but are aberrantly expressed in cancers and promote tumorigenesis. Mechanistically, MAGEs function as substrate specifying subunits of E3 ubiquitin ligases. Thus, the activation of germline-specific genes in cancer can drive metabolic and signaling pathways through altered ubiquitination to promote tumorigenesis. ... [more]
