Identification of Polyubiquitin Chains in Lysate: A Western blot of IL-1 stimulated HEK293 cell lysate (lane 2) and non-stimulated HEK293 cell lysate (lane 3) probed with an anti-FK2 antibody indicates that both of the lysates are abundant with ubiquitylated proteins and possibly free ubiquitin chains. Polyubiquitin (Ub2-7) (K63-linked) was included as a positive control in this experiment (lane 1).


Background

HEK293 cell lysate may be used to demonstrate the ability of ubiquitin binding domain proteins (Op tineurin and NEMO) to capture polyubiq uitylated proteins including IL-1 receptor-associated kinase 1 (IRAK1) (Windheim et al.2008).
