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.

UBQLN2 undergoes a reversible temperature-induced conformational switch that regulates binding with HSPA1B: ALS/FTD mutations cripple the switch but do not destroy HSPA1B binding.

Phung TH, Tatman M, Monteiro MJ

Here we present evidence, based on alterations of its intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence, that UBQLN2 protein undergoes a conformational switch when the temperature is raised from 37 °C to 42 °C. The switch is reset on restoration of the temperature. We speculate that the switch regulates UBQLN2 function in the heat shock response because elevation of the temperature from 37 °C to 42 °C dramatically ... [more]
