Figure 2. Hsp70 interacts with PB1 and PB2 directly.

Figure 2

The GST-fused PB1 mutants (A, B) or GST-fused PB2 (C, D) mutants were generated. The interaction between GST-PB1 mutants (B) or GST-PB2 mutants (D) and His-Hsp70 was analysed by GST pull-down assay and Western blot (upper panel), the CBB staining of purified proteins were shown in lower panel. (A, C) Binding activity is indicated as “+”, no significant binding activity as “−”. (E) The schematic map of Hsp70 and its mutants. (F) His-Hsp70, His-Hsp70ΔEEVD, His-Hsp70 ATPase domain and His-Hsp70 PBD were prepared and subjected to GST pull-down assays with GST-PB1(79–659) (upper left panel), GST-PB2(1–521) (upper right panel) and GST as negative control, and the purified His-Hsp70 and its mutants were subjected to CBB staining (lower panel). Arrows indicated purified proteins of CBB staining. These experiments were repeated twice with identical results.
