RACK1 interaction with FLAG-NBCn1 deletion constructs. (A) Overview of NBCn1 organization and the four FLAG-tagged NBCn1 constructs employed. HEK293 cells were transiently transfected with one full length (137) and three truncated (22, 41 and 122) FLAG-tagged versions of the NBCn1 C-terminal prior to lysis or PFA fixation after 24 h incubation. (B) Fixed cells were prepared for immunofluorescence microscopy using antibodies directed against the most distal C-terminal amino acids in NBCn1 (NBCn1 C-term) or FLAG. Scale bars: 20 µm. (C) Samples from lysed cells were subjected to SDS-PAGE and Western blotting against FLAG and β-actin (loading control). (D) Samples from lysed cells were subjected to FLAG IP and analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting against RACK1 and p150 (loading control). Ctrl: isotype control. Sham: sham-transfected cells. (E) HEK293 cells were transfected with empty vector pFLAG-CMV-2 (EV) or full length NCBn1 C-terminus (137) and lysed before performing IP against FLAG and analyzing by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting against RACK1 and β-actin (loading control). Representative images from 3–4 independent experiments are shown.
