Fig. 1. Overview of photoaffinity-labeling (PAL) approach for identifying ApnA interactors.

a Schematic workflow of PAL experiments. Probes were incubated with cell lysates and irradiated with UV light to initiate photo-crosslinking. Labeled proteins were affinity-purified using desthiobiotin (DTB) as affinity tag. Eluted fractions were digested and analyzed by LC-MS/MS and label-free quantification (LFQ). b Functionalized, non-hydrolysable Ap3A and Ap4A derivatives used as PAL probes (PALP). c Unlabeled, non-hydrolysable Ap3A and Ap4A derivatives and a control substance (con-1) lacking the ApnA scaffold served as controls in PAL experiments.
