a, b SKP2 attaches K48-linked poly-ubiquitin at K402 of BECN1. HEK293 cells were transfected with plasmids expressing either WT HA-tagged ubiquitin or mutant forms featuring only one lysine together with an SKP2 expressing plasmid or vector control (a). In b, cells were transfected with plasmids expressing BECN1, either WT or the indicated mutants, myc-SKP2 and HA-ubiquitin. Ubiquitination of BECN1 was determined after immunoprecipitation. ce Association of FKBP51 and BECN1 with regulatory kinases. HEK293 cells were transfected with FKBP51-Flag expressing plasmid (c, e) and protein extracts were used for western blot analysis after 72 h of cultivation (e) or immunoprecipitation of FKBP51 (c). In d, endogenous BECN1 was precipitated from cell extracts. Blot collections are provided as a Source Data file.
