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.

Presenilin 2 (PS2) is a gene responsible for the early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease (AD). PS2 mutations are considered to be closely related to the pathogenesis of AD. We screened for proteins that interact with PS2 to understand its pathological and physiological functions. Using the PS2 loop domain as the bait, the yeast two-hybrid system was used for screening, and mu-calpain ... [more]
