a A schematic diagram representing the PrLZ structural domains for mapping the interaction domains with SPOP. b Immunoblot (IB) analysis of WCL and anti-HA immunoprecipitates (IPs) derived from 293 T cells transfected with GST-SPOP and indicated constructs of HA-PrLZ. 30 h post-transfection, cells were treated with 20 μM MG132 for 6 h before harvesting. EV, empty vector. WT, wild type. c IB analysis of WCL derived from 293 T cells transfected with HA-PrLZ WT, HA-PrLZ animo acid (aa) 46-224 constructs and increasing transfection doses (1 and 3 μg) of Flag-SPOP. WT, wild type. d IB analysis of WCL and anti-Flag IPs derived from 293 T cells transfected with HA-SPOP, Flag-PrLZ WT, and deletion of aa 30-42 domain-PrLZ constructs. 30 h post-transfection, cells were treated with 20 μM MG132 for 6 h before harvesting. EV, empty vector. WT, wild type. e IB analysis of WCL derived from 293 T cells transfected with HA-SPOP, Flag-PrLZ WT, and deletion of aa 30-42 domain-PrLZ constructs. EV, empty vector. WT, wild type. f IB analysis of WCL and Ni-NTA pull-down products derived from PC-3 cells transfected with HA-SPOP, His-Ub, Flag-PrLZ WT, and deletion of aa 30-42 domain-PrLZ constructs. Where indicated, 20 μM MG132 was added for 6 h before harvesting the cells. EV, empty vector. WT, wild type. g IB analysis of WCL and anti-Flag IPs derived from 293 T cells transfected with HA-SPOP and indicated mutation constructs of Flag-PrLZ. EV, empty vector. WT, wild type. h IB analysis of WCL and Ni-NTA pull-down products derived from PC-3 cells transfected with HA-SPOP, His-Ub, Flag-PrLZ WT, and Flag-PrLZ S40A mutant. Where indicated, 20 μM MG132 was added for 6 h before harvesting the cells. EV, empty vector. WT, wild type. i IB analysis of WCL derived from 293 T cells transfected with HA-SPOP, Flag-PrLZ WT, and Flag-PrLZ S40A mutant. Where indicated, 100 μg/ml CHX was added for the indicated time period before harvesting. WT, wild type. j The PrLZ protein abundance in (i) was quantified by ImageJ and plotted as indicated. PrLZ bands were normalized to vinculin. k IB analysis of WCL derived from 293 T cells transfected with HA-SPOP and pull-down binding assay using biotinylated peptide.
