Fig. 1: HRD1 protein level and its interaction with TLR3 increase upon TLR3 stimulation.

a Comparative analysis of anti-HRD1 IP-MS in WT and HRD1^−/− RAW 264.7 cells to identify HRD1-interacting candidates, and the top ten specific HRD1-interacting ER proteins shown. b Immunoblot analysis of indicated proteins in primary macrophages treated with 50 μg/ml poly(I:C) for the indicated times, representative of three biologically independent repeats. The quantitation of protein levels (normalized to the loading control) is shown below the blot. c Immunoblot analysis of indicated proteins following immunoprecipitation of Flag in HEK293T cells transfected with TLR3-Flag and HRD1-Myc plasmids for 24 h, and subsequently treated with 50 μg/ml poly(I:C) for 3 h. The quantitation of protein levels (normalized to the no poly(I:C) treatment) is shown below the blot. IP, immunoprecipitation. d Immunoblot analysis of indicated proteins following immunoprecipitation of endogenous HRD1 in RAW 264.7 macrophages at various time points following treatment with 50 μg/ml poly(I:C). The quantitation of protein levels (normalized to the 0 h) is shown below the blot. IgG, immunoglobulin G. e–h Diagrams of full-length HRD1 protein domains and various HRD1 truncate mutants (e) and TLR3 protein domains and various TLR3 truncate mutants (g), along with mapping of TLR3 and HRD1 interacting domains (f, h). WT, wild type; TM, transmembrane. LRR, leucine-rich repeat; TIR, cytosolic Toll/interleukin-1 receptor domain. Results showing immunoblot analysis following Myc  immunoprecipitation (f) or Flag immunoprecipitation (h) in HEK293T cells transfected with various plasmids encoding WT and truncated HRD1-Myc or TLR3-Flag proteins, as indicated. The blot data are representative of three biologically independent repeats (b–d, f, h). Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
