Identification of 19S RP subunits binding the Ub-independent degron of Rpn4. (A) A schematic of the photo-crosslinking-label transfer method. “Deg” stands for the Rpn41–80 degron. (B) Western blot analysis to identify biotinylated proteasome subunits. The assignment of the 19S RP subunits (lane 4) was referred to early publications[24,25]. (C) SYPRO Ruby staining to show the proteins isolated over streptavidin beads. The bands aligned with 19S RP subunits were cut out from the gel and subjected to LC–MS/MS. The bands marked with asterisks were not aligned with any 19S RP subunits and were not characterized further.
