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.

Adenosine A2B receptors behave as an alternative anchoring protein for cell surface adenosine deaminase in lymphocytes and cultured cells.

Herrera C, Casado V, Ciruela F, Schofield P, Mallol J, Lluis C, Franco R

Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is an enzyme of the purine metabolism that has been largely considered to be cytosolic. Recently, it has been demonstrated that the enzyme appears on the surface of lymphocytes where it interacts with the T-cell activation antigen CD26. ADA also appears on the surface of nonlymphoid cells anchored to adenosine A1 receptors. Here it is demonstrated that ... [more]
