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.

Agonist-induced internalization of the platelet-activating factor receptor is dependent on arrestins but independent of G-protein activation. Role of the C terminus and the (D/N)PXXY motif.

Chen Z, Dupre DJ, Le Gouill C, Rola-Pleszczynski M, Stankova J

As with most G-protein-coupled receptors, repeated agonist stimulation of the platelet-activating factor receptor (PAFR) results in its desensitization, sequestration, and internalization. In this report, we show that agonist-induced PAFR internalization is independent of G-protein activation but is dependent on arrestins and involves the interaction of arrestins with a limited region of the PAFR C terminus. In cotransfected COS-7 cells, both ... [more]
