doi: 10.1038/s41467-024-46953-x
Figure Lengend Snippet: A SNAP29, SNAP23, STX3, SEC22B, and FKBP5 co-immunoprecipitation (SKA2 IP) and whole cell extract (WCE) in hippocampus (HIP), prefrontal cortex (PFC) and amygdala (AMY) samples of mice ( n = 8). B HIS pull down assay (replicated in 3 independent in vitro experiments). DDK(Flag)-tagged SNAP23, SNAP29, Syntaxin3 or Syntaxin4 was incubated with purified magnetic beads-HIS-tagged SKA2 or magnetic beads-HIS protein alone. After incubation, bead bound proteins were eluted at room temperature (RT) or at 95 °C and subjected to western blot analysis using antibodies against HIS and FLAG. Input lane contains HIS alone (left) or HIS-tagged SKA2 (right). C – M SIM-A9 cells transfected with SKA2, FKBP5 or their respective controls, were harvested 24 h later. After immunoprecipitation (IP) of protein complexes, input and co-IP proteins were quantified by western blotting. C , F , I , K Representative blots of ( D , E , G , H , J , L , M ). Graphs display quantification of SNAP29/SEC22B, STX3/SEC22B, SKA2/SNAP29, FKBP5/SEC22B protein association after SEC22B or SNAP29 IP (unpaired two tailed t-test: ( D ) t 6 = 8.945, p < 0.0001, ( E ) t 6 = 12.94, p < 0.0001, ( G ) t 6 = 6.056, p = 0.0009, ( H ) t 6 = 5.554, p = 0.0014; one-way ANOVA: ( J ) F 2, 9 = 17.28, p = 0.0008, Tukey’s post hoc test: ctrl vs. FKBP5-OE, p = 0.0743, ctrl vs. FKBP5-KO, p = 0.0218, FKBP5-OE vs. FKBP5-KO, p = 0.0006; unpaired two tailed t-test: ( L ) t 6 = 10.27, p < 0.0001, ( M ) t 6 = 8.140, p = 0.0002; n = mean derived from four independent in vitro experiments). * = p < 0.05; ** = p < 0.01; *** = p < 0.001; **** = p < 0.0001. Data are presented as mean + SEM. Source data are provided as a file.
Article Snippet: Purified Syntaxin3-DDK (Origene, TP300658), SNAP29-DDK (Origene, TP302179), Syntaxin4 (Origene, TP300347), SNAP23-DDK (Origene, TP301596) or correspondingly SEC22B-HIS (Origene, AR50533PU-S) (100 ng) was used for the binding reaction.
