NK cells were isolated and activated with IL2 for 96 hours as described above. The cells were collected and washed with ice cold PBS at 4oC (1500 rpm for 10 minutes). A standard immunoprecipitation protocol was followed as described in a previous publication (25 (link)). 1 μg of anti-human C3aR (Cat# SC-133172, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) and 1 μg of anti-human CD11a (Cat# 350602, Biolegend) were used in 1 mg of total protein for pulldown. Pulled down eluates were processed for Western blotting as described below.
For mouse NK-cell immunoprecipitation, mouse NK cells were treated with IL2 for 96 hours as described. The activated mouse NK cells were processed as described above. Pulldown assays were performed for C3aR using anti-C3aR ((Cat# SC-133172, Santa Cruz Biotechnology). Polyclonal anti CD11a polyclonal antibody (Cat# BS 20370R, Bioss) and Anti C3aR polyclonal antibody (Cat# BS 2955R, Bioss) were used for immunoblotting.
