Recombinant SAMHD1 was purified as described (42 (link)) and the pull-down assay was performed as described (14 (link)). SAMHD1 and IKKα or IKKβ were precleared with Dynabeads Protein A for 30 min and then incubated with Dynabeads Protein A and SAMHD1 antibody, IKKα antibody (61294S, Cell Signaling) or IKKβ antibody in cell lysis buffer with 0.375% CHAPS overnight at 4 °C. The beads were washed with a buffer containing 50 mM Tris-HCl PH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 1% Triton X-100, and 0.5% sodium deoxycholate. The input and IP samples were analyzed by Western blot.
