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.

Importin β3 mediates the nuclear import of human ribosomal protein L7 through its interaction with the multifaceted basic clusters of L7.

Chou CW, Tai LR, Kirby R, Lee IF, Lin A

We show that importin β3 is essential for the nuclear import of L7. The import is mediated via the multifaceted basic amino acid clusters present in the NH(2)-region of L7, and is RanGTP-dependent. Using a (EGFP)(3) reporter system and a FRAP assay, the role the individual clusters play as a functional NLS has been characterized, and each cluster was found ... [more]
