Figure Lengend Snippet: Isolation of endogenously polyubiquitinated protein complexes by use of the ubiquitin enrichment kit. A workflow for isolating endogenously ubiquitinylated protein complexes for proteomic analysis is shown. (A) Ubiquitinylated proteins were isolated from brain homogenates by IP. IP fraction (BF) and the supernatant (NBF) were loaded on an SDS-PAGE gel and stained for total protein expression (A1) and subsequently blotted on nitrocellulose membrane and stained with a polyclonal anti-Ub antibody (anti-Ub Ab) to determine enrichment efficiency (A2). (B) The IP fractions (BF and NBF) were further processed with the enrichment kit (Thermo) containing the polyubiquitin affinity resin (Poly-Ub AR). BF, NBF, and FT were loaded in SDS page (B1) and blotted with antiubiquitin antibody (B2). (C) Heat denaturation of high-affinity resin using high temperature (60°) was used to destroy the bond between resin and poly-Ub antibody. Poly-Ub was detected by performing a Western blot (agarose-only control; C1). BF, bound fraction; FT, flow-through; IP, immunoprecipitation; NBF, nonbound fraction; Poly-Ub, polymeric Ub; SDS-PAGE, sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; Ub, ubiquitin.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Poly-Ub levels. (A) Total levels of poly-Ub-bound proteins in DS (n = 6/group) and DS/AD (n = 6/group) cases compared with their age-matched controls (n = 6/group). (B, C) Increased poly-Ub of two types of ubiquitin chains [K63 (B) and K48 (C)] in both DS (n = 6/group) and DS/AD (n = 6/group) cases compared with their age-matched controls (n = 6/group). Representative bands are shown and protein levels (A−C, upper bands) were normalized per total protein load, named total load (A−C, lower bands). Densitometric values are shown as percentage of Ctr Y set as 100%. Mean ± SEM (DS vs. Ctr y *p < 0.05; DS/AD vs. DS **p < 0.01; DS/AD vs. Ctr O ***p < 0.001; DS vs. Ctr Y and DS/AD vs. DS [for K48] *p < 0.05; DS vs. Ctr Y, DS/AD vs. Ctr O, and DS/AD vs. DS [for K63] **p < 0.01; Ctr O vs. Ctr Y #p < 0.05 one-way ANOVA). AD, Alzheimer's disease; ANOVA, analysis of variance; DS, Down syndrome; DS/AD, Down syndrome with Alzheimer's disease; SEM, standard error of the mean.

Figure Lengend Snippet: UCH-L1. (A, B) All samples (n = 6/group) were immunoprecipitated with anti-UCH-L1. Immunoprecipitated proteins were separated on SDS-PAGE, transferred on nitrocellulose membranes, and probed with anti-poly-UbK63 (A, upper bands) and anti-poly-UbK48 (B, upper bands). (A) Shows increased levels of poly-UbK63 bound to UCH-L1 in DS and DS/AD compared with their matched controls. (B) Shows an increase in poly-UbK48 bound to UCH-L1 in DS/AD compared with DS. All the IP experiments were normalized on the total amount of UCH-L1 (indicated as Expr.; A, B, lower bands). Representative bands are shown. Densitometric values are shown as percentage of Ctr Y set as 100%. Mean ± SEM (DS vs. Ctr Y [for K63], DS/AD vs. DS [for K48] *p < 0.05; DS/AD vs. Ctr O [for K63] **p < 0.01 one-way ANOVA). UCH-L1, ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase isozyme L1.
