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.

LIM kinase 2 is widely expressed in all tissues.

Acevedo K, Moussi N, Li R, Soo P, Bernard O

The LIM kinase family includes two proteins: LIMK1 and LIMK2. These proteins have identical genomic structure and overall amino acid identity of 50%. Both proteins regulate actin polymerization via phosphorylation and inactivation of the actin depolymerizing factors ADF/cofilin. Although the function of endogenous LIMK1 is well established, little is known about the function of the endogenous LIMK2 protein. To understand ... [more]
