Co-immunoprecipitation in screening proteins interacting with CXCR4 during nuclear localization in renal cell carcinoma A498 cells / 第二军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To screen for the proteins interacting with CXCR4 during nuclear localization in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) A498 cells. Methods Specific band in co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) experiments was sent for mass spectrometry. With the results of Co-IP experiments and mass spectrometry, the proteins interacting with CXCR4 were determined by bioinformatics analyses. Results Three specific bands were found after Co-IP with anti-CXCR4 antibody, and the results of mass spectrometry of the three specific bands showed 36 proteins possibly interacting with CXCR4. Bioinformatics analyses showed that NR1D2, c-src and HSPA8 might interact with CXCR4 and participate in CXCR4 nuclear localization. Conclusion NR1D2, c-src and HSPA8 might have participated in CXCR4 nuclear localization in RCC A498 cells.
