Fig. 7. PAK4 enhances the association of NEDD4-1 with α-synuclein through phosphorylation of NEDD4-1.
A In vitro kinase assay for PAK4-mediated phosphorylation of NEDD4-1 with vehicle (control) or PF3758309 (10 μM). C-PAK4, C-terminal kinase domain of PAK4. B Immunoblotting for NEDD4-1 with anti-phospho-serine/threonine (α-pS/T) and anti-phospho-tyrosine (α-pY) antibodies in vector- or myc-caPAK4–transfected cells. C Immunoblotting for NEDD4-1 in vector- or myc-caPAK4–transfected cells over 24 h following treatment with cycloheximide (CHX; 20 μg/ml). D In vitro ubiquitination assay to assess the catalytic activity of NEDD4-1 with vehicle (control) or PF3758309 (10 μM). E Immunoblotting after immunoprecipitation with anti-HA (NEDD4-1) with vehicle (control) or PF3758309 (10 μM). Each blot is representative of at least two experiments.
