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.

Interaction of two structurally distinct sequence types with the clathrin terminal domain beta-propeller.

Drake MT, Traub LM

The amino-terminal domain of the clathrin heavy chain, which folds into a seven-bladed beta-propeller, binds directly to several endocytic proteins via short sequences based on the consensus residues LLDLD. In addition to a single LLDLD-based, type I clathrin-binding sequence, both amphiphysin and epsin contain a second, distinct sequence that is also capable of binding to clathrin directly. Here, we analyzed ... [more]
