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.

Association of EXT1 and EXT2, hereditary multiple exostoses gene products, in Golgi apparatus.

Kobayashi S, Morimoto K, Shimizu T, Takahashi M, Kurosawa H, Shirasawa T

We prepared the specific antibodies for EXT1 and EXT2, hereditary multiple exostoses (HME) gene products, and characterized their expression, subcellular localization, and protein association among EXT members. Biochemical analyses indicate that EXT1 and EXT2 can associate and form homo/hetero-oligomers in vivo with or without HME-linked mutations, EXT1 (R340C) and EXT2 (D227N), when exogenously expressed in COS-7 cells. An immunocytochemical analysis ... [more]
