BRA-1 associates with the DAF-1 type I receptor through the conserved
C-terminal region in mammalian cells. (A) Schematic
diagram of the structure of BRA-1 deletion mutations.
(B) COS7 cells were transiently transfected with
HA-tagged BRA-1, BRA-1ΔN, and BRA-1ΔC and GST alone or GST-DAF-1.
Cell lysates were subjected to the GST pull-down procedure and then
immunoblotted using an anti-HA antibody (Top).
Expression of BRA-1-HA, BRA-1ΔN-HA, BRA-1ΔC-HA, GST, and GST-DAF-1
was measured by anti-HA or anti-GST immunoblotting of aliquots from
cell lysates (Middle or Bottom).
