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.

SENP1 mediates TNF-induced desumoylation and cytoplasmic translocation of HIPK1 to enhance ASK1-dependent apoptosis.

We have previously shown that tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-induced desumoylation and subsequent cytoplasmic translocation of HIPK1 are critical for ASK1-JNK activation. However, the mechanism by which TNF induces desumoylation of HIPK1 is unclear. Here, we show that SENP1, a SUMO-specific protease, specifically deconjugates SUMO from HIPK1 in vitro and in vivo. In resting endothelial cells (ECs), SENP1 is localized in ... [more]
