Figure Lengend Snippet: STUB1 physically associates with AHR and promotes the ubiquitination of AHR. (A) Interaction between STUB1 and AHR in the lysates of CD4+ T cells that had been transfected with the indicated plasmids and then were stimulated without or with anti-CD3/anti-CD8. Samples were subjected to immunoprecipitation (IP) with anti-Flag antibody. The immunoprecipitates were immunoblotted (IB) with indicated antibody. (B) Flag-AHR and HA-Ub were co-transfected with different amounts of Myc-STUB1 into HEK293T cells. Polyubiquitination of AHR was detected with the indicated antibody. Cell extracts were immunoblotted with antibody to Flag or Myc tag. β-actin served as a loading control. The AHR protein levels are shown in the bar. (C) Ubiquitination assay for AHR in Jurkat T cells cotransfected with or without STUB1 siRNA and the indicated plasmids. Cell lysates were immunoprecipitated with antibody against Flag and the complex were immunoblotted with antibody to Ubiquitin. Immunoblotting with the indicated antibodies was used to detect the protein level of AHR, STUB1, or β-actin in cell lysates. The AHR protein levels are shown in the bar. (D) HEK293T cells were transfected with Myc-STUB1 and Flag-AHR together with plasmid encoding His-Ub (WT) or the ubiquitin mutants K48R or K63R. The cells were lysed for Co-IP as indicated. The ubiquitination levels are shown in the bar. Data are representative of three independent experiments.
