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.

Valosin-containing protein, VCP, is a ubiquitous clathrin-binding protein.

Pleasure IT, Black MM, Keen JH

Clathrin is the structural protein of coated membranes involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis and aspects of Golgi sorting in eukaryotic cells. We have now detected a stoichiometric complex of clathrin with a novel protein of M(r) approximately 100,000 (100K) in lysates of different mammalian cells. Formation of the complex, which also includes the 70K heat-shock protein Hsc70, occurs within 15 min ... [more]
