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.

USP7, a ubiquitin-specific protease, interacts with ataxin-1, the SCA1 gene product.

Hong S, Kim SJ, Ka S, Choi I, Kang S

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1) is an autosomal-dominant neurodegenerative disorder characterized by ataxia and progressive motor deterioration. SCA1 has been known to associate with elongated polyglutamine tract in ataxin-1, the SCA1 gene product. Using the yeast two-hybrid system, we have found that USP7, a ubiquitin-specific protease, binds to ataxin-1. Further experiments with deletion mutants indicated that the C-terminal region of ...
