Figure Lengend Snippet: Identification of CLIP2 as a protein partner of AQP5. A , B Tandem mass spectra of CLIP2 peptide 634–645, ATLNSGPGAQQK, (+ 2 charged ion, m/z 586.4) from AQP5 IP samples in mouse parotid ( A ) and submandibular SG ( B ). Sequence specific b- and y-ions are labeled. C AQP5 immunoprecipitation (IP) performed using proteins from mouse SGs followed by WB detection using anti-CLIP2 antibodies. Input proteins from mouse submandibular glands (mSMG; lane A) and mouse parotid gland (mPG, lane B); IP performed using mSMG (lanes C, E) and mPG (lanes D, F) proteins in the presence (lanes C, D) or absence (negative controls; lanes E, F) of anti-AQP5 antibody; IP performed in the absence of any input proteins (additional negative control, lane G). D AQP5 IP performed using proteins from NS-SV-AC cells expressing AQP5 followed by WB detection using anti-CLIP2 antibodies. Input proteins from NS-SV-AC cells transfected with HA-hAQP5 (lane A) or SNAP-hAQP5 (lane B); IP performed using NS-SV-AC HA-AQP5 (lanes C, D) and NS-SV-AC SNAP-hAQP5 (lanes E, F) in the presence (lanes C, E) or in the absence (negative controls; lanes D, F) of anti-AQP5 antibody; IP performed in the absence of input proteins (additional negative control, lane G). Considering known batch-to-batch variation of commercial Sepharose-Protein A beads, whereby Protein A can shed from the beads under elution, the non-specific bands of ± 80–100 kDa ( C ) and ± 45–50 kDa ( D ) are likely non-specific bands corresponding in all likelihood to the IgG heavy chain (± 45–50 kDa) coupled or not to protein A (± 45 kDa) shed from the Sepharose beads.HA: hemagglutinin; SNAP: small protein derived from mammalian O6-alkylguanine-DNA-alkyltransferase

Figure Lengend Snippet: Computer docking model of the AQP5-CLIP2 complex. A Model of the complex between the AQP5 C-terminus (orange) and the two MTB-domains of CLIP2 (light cyan and teal respectively) generated by AlphaFold Multimer. AQP5 binds primarily to MTB1 in a manner that resembles how SLAIN2 (blue) interacts with CLIP1 MTB1 (grey) and how tubulin (magenta) interacts with CLIP1 MTB2 (white). B Zoom-in on the AQP5-CLIP2 interaction site. A stretch of acidic residues (EPDED) interacts with a highly conserved basic groove on MTB1 with hydrophobic residues on the proximal (I238, Y243) and distal side (W249) interacting with hydrophobic pockets on MTB1 and MTB2 respectively. C Crystal structure of human CLIP1 MTB1 in complex with a C-terminal peptide of SLAIN2 (PDB code 3RDV) and D NMR structure of human CLIP1 MTB2 in complex with the C-terminal tail of α-tubulin (PDB code 2E4H) showing a similar mode of interaction as in the predicted AQP5-CLIP2 complex

Data were analyzed using one-tailed Mann-Whitney U-test. One-tailed statistical tests were performed as values for SICCA-NS were not expected to be below SICCA-SD due to previously reported decreased expression of AQP5 in SICCA-SD hMSGB .
