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.

The AAA-ATPase ATAD1 and its partners promote degradation of desmin intermediate filaments in muscle.

Aweida D, Cohen S

Maintenance of desmin intermediate filaments (IF) is vital for muscle plasticity and function, and their perturbed integrity due to accelerated loss or aggregation causes atrophy and myopathies. Calpain-1-mediated disassembly of ubiquitinated desmin IF is a prerequisite for desmin loss, myofibril breakdown, and atrophy. Because calpain-1 does not harbor a bona fide ubiquitin-binding domain, the precise mechanism for desmin IF disassembly ... [more]

Interaction inferred from the presence of two or more protein subunits in a partially purified protein preparation. If co-fractionation is demonstrated between 3 or more proteins, then add them as a complex.
