ad Analysis of (a, c) the levels and (b, d) quantification of biotin labeling of FLAG-EFR3A expressed in 293T cells by ectopic myc-BirA*-KRAS wild-type (WT), G12V, or S17N or by myc-BirA alone as a control, as assessed by streptavidin affinity capture (IP) of biotinylated proteins and immunoblotted with FLAG- and myc-specific antibodies. INPUT levels are shown as loading controls. eh Analysis of (e, g) the levels and (f, h) quantification of recombinant GST-EFR3A detected by immunoblot with an EFR3A-specific antibody that co-immunoprecipitates (co-IP) WT or G12V recombinant His10-KRAS using a KRAS-specific antibody, and (g, h) preincubated with buffer, GDP, or GTPγS. INPUT levels are shown as loading controls. IgG serves as a negative control. i, j Analysis of (i) the levels and (j) quantification of recombinant His10-KRASG12V (preloaded with GTPγS) detected with a KRAS-specific antibody, that associates with recombinant GST-EFR3A versus control GST by far western. INPUT levels are shown as loading controls. k, l Analysis of (k) the levels and (l) quantification of GST-EFR3A detected with an EFR3A-specific antibody, that associate with recombinant wild-type (WT) versus His10-KRASG12V by far western. INPUT levels are shown as loading controls. mr Analysis by (m, o, q) size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) profile and (n, p, r) immunoblot of the indicated fractions of recombinant (m, n) GST-EFR3A (peak 15.48: GST-EFR3A, o, p recombinant His10-KRASG12V preloaded with GTPγS (peak 18.49: His10-KRASG12V), and (q, r) a complex of recombinant GST-EFR3A and His10-KRASG12V preloaded with GTPγS (peak 15.29: complex). ak Representative of 3 biological independent samples tested in 3 independent experiments. mr Representative of 3 biological replicates. Replicate experiments and full-length gels are provided in Supplementary Fig. 12. Significance values calculated by one-sided student’s t test for (b, d, f, h, j, l): **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001. Specific p values for (b) is 0.00089, d are 0.00074 (G12V) and 0.00014 (S17N), f is 0.00058, (h) are 0.00048 (WTGDP), 0.00015 (WTGTP), 0.00031 (G12VGDP), and 0.00028 (G12VGTP), j is 0.00067, and l is 0.0069.
