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.

Protein kinase C (PKC) activity regulates functional effects of Kvβ1.3 subunit on KV1.5 channels: identification of a cardiac Kv1.5 channelosome.

K(v)1.5 channels are the primary channels contributing to the ultrarapid outward potassium current (I(Kur)). The regulatory K(v)β1.3 subunit converts K(v)1.5 channels from delayed rectifiers with a modest degree of slow inactivation to channels with both fast and slow inactivation components. Previous studies have shown that inhibition of PKC with calphostin C abolishes the fast inactivation induced by K(v)β1.3. In this ... [more]
