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.

Human Polycomb protein 2 promotes α-synuclein aggregate formation through covalent SUMOylation.

Oh Y, Kim YM, Mouradian MM, Chung KC

Parkinson's disease (PD) manifests from the impairment of motor systems due to the specific loss of dopaminergic neurons and the appearance of intracellular filamentous inclusions called Lewy bodies (LBs). α-Synuclein, a major component of LBs, is known to contribute to the pathogenesis of PD. Although α-synuclein is known to be a target of diverse posttranslational modifications, the contribution of α-synuclein ... [more]
