JAK2 associates with ASK1 and mediates IFN-γ-induced ASK1
phosphorylation. a, HAEC were untreated or pretreated with AG490
(AG) (10 μm) for 60 min followed by IFN-γ (10
ng/ml) for 15 min. Phosphorylation of JAK2 and ASK1 was determined by Western
blot with phospho-specific antibodies. Ctrl, control. b,
JAK2 associates with ASK1. HAEC were treated with IFN-γ for the
indicated times. Phospho- and total JAK2, STAT1, and ASK1 were determined by
Western blot with respective antibodies. ASK1-JAK2 complex was determined by
immunoprecipitation (IP) assay with anti-JAK2 followed by Western
blot with anti-ASK1. c, JAK2-ASK1 complex is stabilized by
proteasomal inhibitor MG132. HAEC were pretreated with MG312 for 60 min
followed by IFN-γ treatment for 30 min. JAK2-ASK1 complex was determined
as in b.
