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.

Subdomain VIII is a specificity-determining region in MEKK1.

MAPK/ERK kinase kinase 1 (MEKK1) is a mitogenactivated protein kinase kinase kinase (MAP3K) of the stress-induced JNK pathway. Once activated, MEKK1 phosphorylates the MAP2K MKK4, which in turn phosphorylates JNK. MEKK1 also has the capacity to activate IKK, the central protein kinase of the NF-kappa B pathway. The molecular determinants responsible for the ability of MEKK1 to recognize specific substrates ... [more]

An interaction is inferred between proteins in vitro. This can include proteins in recombinant form or proteins isolated directly from cells with recombinant or purified bait. For example, GST pull-down assays where a GST-tagged protein is first isolated and then used to fish interactors from cell lysates are considered reconstituted complexes (e.g. PUBMED: 14657240, Fig. 4A or PUBMED: 14761940, Fig. 5). This can also include gel-shifts, surface plasmon resonance, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and bio-layer interferometry (BLI) experiments. The bait-hit directionality may not be clear for 2 interacting proteins. In these cases the directionality is up to the discretion of the curator.
