a Immunoprecipitation analysis of the interaction between endogenous JAK1 and STAT1 in HEK293T cells transfected with or without Flag-LUBAC and then treated with IFNα (1000 IU/ml) for 15 min. b Immunoprecipitation analysis of the interaction between endogenous JAK1 and STAT1 in HeLa (left) and HEK293T (right) cells transfected with shHOIP (#1, #2) and then treated with IFNα as a. c Immunoprecipitation analysis of the interaction between HA-IFNAR2 and endogenous STAT1 in HEK293T cells transfected with shHOIP and then treated with IFNα as a. d Immunoprecipitation analysis of the interaction between endogenous IFNAR2 and STAT1 in HEK293T cells treated as b. e Immunoprecipitation analysis of the interaction between HA-IFNAR2 and Myc-STAT1 in HEK293T cells cotransfected with HA-IFNAR2 and Myc-STAT1-WT or Myc-STAT1-K511/652 R (DM) and then treated with IFNα as a. f Immunoprecipitation analysis of the interaction between HA-IFNAR2 and STAT1 (WT or DM) in a plate of U3A cells cotransfected with HA-IFNAR2 (purple rectangle), Flag-STAT1-WT (blue rectangle), and Myc-STAT1-DM (orange rectangle) and then treated with IFNα as a. Double red lines: linear ubiquitination. g In vitro binding assay to analyze the interaction between HA-IFNAR2 and Flag-STAT1 (WT or DM) that were immunoprecipitated from HEK293T cells transfected with either HA-IFNAR2 or Flag-STAT1. h In vitro kinase assay to analyze the phosphorylation effect of HA-JAK1 on Flag-STAT1 (WT or DM). i HEK293T cells were transfected with Myc-IFNAR2 and (or) Flag-STAT1. The Flag-STAT1 proteins binding with Myc-IFNAR2 were immunoprecipitated by Myc antibodies. The supernatant from Myc immunoprecipitation was subjected to further immunoprecipitation using Flag antibodies to pull down those Flag-STAT1 proteins that did not interact with Myc-IFNAR2. Linear ubiquitination was analyzed as indicated. Data are representative of three independent experiments.
