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.

ERK1/2 inhibits Cullin 3/SPOP-mediated PrLZ ubiquitination and degradation to modulate prostate cancer progression.

Fan Y, Hou T, Dan W, Zhu Y, Liu B, Wei Y, Wang Z, Gao Y, Zeng J, Li L

The gene encoding the E3 ubiquitin ligase substrate-binding adaptor SPOP is frequently mutated in prostate cancer (PCa), but how SPOP functions as a tumor suppressor and contributes to PCa pathogenesis remains poorly understood. Prostate Leucine Zipper (PrLZ) serves as a prostate-specific and androgen-responsive gene, which plays a pivotal role in the malignant progression of PCa. However, the upstream regulatory mechanism ... [more]
