Figure Lengend Snippet: A–D) Validation of endogenous PIM1 substrates. LNCaP-AS-PIM1 thiophosphorylates PUM1 (A), CHMP7 (B), NDRG1 (C), and KIF18A (D). Endogenous proteins were immunoprecipitated from LNCaP-WT-PIM1 and LNCaP-AS-PIM1 and analyzed by Western blot for the presence of thiophosphorylation (ThioP), or immunoprecipitated PUM1, CHMP7, NDRG1, and KIF18A. E-H) Phosphorylation site validation using WT and phosphorylation site mutant substrates. Substrates (Myc-PUM1, FLAG-CHMP7, FLAG-NDRG1, and GFP-6HIS-KIF18A; either wild type (WT) or the indicated PIM1 phosphorylation site mutation) were expressed in 293T cells with AS-PIM1 and thiophosphorylation labeling completed. Substrates were immunoprecipitated using Myc, FLAG, or GFP-magnetic beads, and Western blot performed to detect thiophosphorylated, or the immunoprecipitated substrates. Western blots are representative of two independent experiments.
Article Snippet: Constructs utilized are as follows: pCDNA 3.1 (+)-AR-FLAG , NDRG1 (HG14119-CF, Sino Biologicals), CHMP7 (HG14273-CF, Sino Biologicals), PUM1 (RC201219, Origene), KIF18A (Addgene plasmid # 23002), pCDNA 3.1 (+)-WT PIM1 , pCDNA 3.1 (+)-KD (K67M) , pLB(N)CX-WT PIM1 , pLB(N)CX-KD PIM1 . pCDNA 3.1 (+)- AS (L120G) PIM1 and pLB(N)CX-AS PIM1 (L120G) was generated using site-directed mutagenesis.
