Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 4 Interaction of DNER cytoplasmic region with AP-2 complex. (a) Left; GST-fusion constructs of DNER cytoplasmic domain and its mutants: Right; Summary of GST-pulldown assay results. (b) Mouse brain lysates were incubated with GST fusion proteins shown in (a) and subjected to western blotting using anti a-adaptin antibody (up- per). The expression of each protein was verified by Coomassie blue (CBB) staining (middle). A quantitative comparison of the AP-2 binding activities of the constructs (lower). The ratio of the intensity of the band for GST-pulldown assay to that for CBB staining was calculated, and the percentage of the AP-2-binding by C/FL is presented. The entire experiments were performed three times.
Article Snippet: Other primary and secondary antibodies used for immunofluorescence were as follows; rabbit polyclonal antibody against GFP (Molecular Probes), goat polyclonal antibody against DNER (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA), and mouse monoclonal antibody against GFP (Molecular Probes).
