Figure Lengend Snippet: a A schematic diagram showing the domain organizations of FIP200, ATG16L1, and mammalian ATG8 family proteins. In this drawing, the interactions of ATG16L1 with FIP200 and mammalian ATG8 family proteins are highlighted and indicated by two-way arrows. b Size-exclusion chromatography-based analysis of the interaction of FIP200 Claw with Trx-tagged ATG16L1(78–247). In this panel, the “Sum” stands for the theoretical sum of Trx-tagged ATG16L1(78–247) and FIP200 Claw profiles, while “Mixture” stands for the Trx-tagged ATG16L1(78–247) and FIP200 Claw mixture sample. c Multi-angle light-scattering analysis of the purified ATG16L1(78–247)/FIP200 Claw complex showing the relative light-scattering signals as a function of elution volume. The molecular mass error is the fitted error obtained from the data analysis software. d Sequence alignment analysis of the FIR of ATG16L1 with the currently known FIP200 Claw-binding regions of NAP1, SINTBAD, CCPG1, NDP52, p62, NBR1, Optineurin, and TNIP1 from the human species. In this alignment, the highly conserved acidic residues (Asp, Glu, or potentially phosphorylated Ser residue) and the following two conserved hydrophobic residues are boxed and highlighted with black triangles and stars, respectively. e The fluorescence polarization (FP)-based assay measuring the binding affinity of FIP200 Claw with FITC-labeled ATG16L1 FIR. The K d value is the fitted dissociation constant with standard errors obtained by using the one-site binding model to fit the FP data. f Size-exclusion chromatography-based analysis of the interaction of FIP200 Claw with Trx-tagged ATG16L1(78–235). In this panel, the “Sum” stands for the theoretical sum of Trx-tagged ATG16L1(78–235) and FIP200 Claw profiles, while “Mixture” stands for the Trx-tagged ATG16L1(78–235) and FIP200 Claw mixture sample.
Article Snippet: Endogenous FIP200, ATG5~ATG12, WIPI2, GABARAP family proteins, and mEGFP-tagged wild-type ATG16L1 or relevant ATG16L1 mutants were detected by western blot using the anti-FIP200 (Proteintech, 17250-1-AP, 1:2000 dilution), anti-ATG5 (Proteintech, 81803-1-RR, 1:2000 dilution), anti-WIPI2 (Proteintech, 28820-1-AP, 1:2000 dilution), anti-GABARAP family (Selleck, F1156, 1:2000 dilution), and anti-GFP (Abmart, M20004M, 1:2000 dilution) primary antibodies.
