Dimerization of YG4 and RelA. In vitro cross-linking reactions were performed by incubating the proteins and analyzing them by Western Blot. (+): with glutaraldehyde; (−): without glutaraldehyde. (A) Cross-linking of YG4 (left) and YG4-C638F (right). (B) From left to right: cross-linking of RelA, RelA and YG4, RelA, and YG4-C638F. (C,D) Mass spectrometry (MS)-MS analysis of digested YG4 peptides. (C) MS-MS analysis of YG4 dimers, digested without DTT reducing treatment, showing a fragment including an inter-chain S-S bond corresponding to Cys638-Cys638 (box); m/z = 1,147; (D) MS-MS analysis of reduced and digested YG4 dimers; note the absence of the fragment seen in (C; see box).
