Apg16p interacts with the Apg12p-Apg5p conjugate but not with the Apg12p monomer. The apg12Δapg16Δ cells (YNM115) were transformed with high copy (2μ) plasmids encoding MycApg12p and/or HAApg16p as indicated. Total lysates were immunoprecipitated with anti‐Myc (lanes 1-4) or anti‐HA antibody (lanes 5-8) and detected by immunoblotting using anti‐Myc or anti‐HA antibody. The positions of the IgG heavy chain and κ light chain are indicated.
