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.

Depletion of mammalian CCR4b deadenylase triggers elevation of the p27Kip1 mRNA level and impairs cell growth.

Morita M, Suzuki T, Nakamura T, Yokoyama K, Miyasaka T, Yamamoto T

The stability of mRNA influences the abundance of cellular transcripts and proteins. Deadenylases play critical roles in mRNA turnover and thus are important for the regulation of various biological events. Here, we report the identification and characterization of CCR4b/CNOT6L, which is homologous to yeast CCR4 mRNA deadenylase. CCR4b is localized mainly in the cytoplasm and displays deadenylase activity both in ... [more]
