Mutation detection by a two-hybrid assay.
Yeast-based assays have been developed to detect inactivating mutations in human genes, but these assays generally rely on the human protein having a biological function in yeast. We describe a simple method to detect mutations by virtue of their ability to abolish a protein-protein interaction in the yeast two-hybrid assay. By the use of direct recombinational cloning in yeast of a reverse tra...
متن کاملYeast Two Hybrid Assay: A Fishing Tale
Galactose metabolism Galactose is imported into the cell and converted to galactose-6-phosphate by six enzymes (GAL1, GAL2, PGM2, GAL7, GAL10, MEL1) which are transcriptionally regulated by the proteins Gal80, Gal3, and Gal4, the latter of which plays the central role of DNA-binding transactivator (Figure 1). Gal80 binds Gal4 and inhibits its transcriptional ability. Gal3, in the presence of ga...
متن کاملDetection of human papillomavirus DNA by the hybrid capture assay.
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the main cause of cervical cancers and cervical intraepithelial neoplasias (CIN) worldwide. Consequently, it would be useful to evaluate HPV testing to screen for cervical cancer. Recently developed, the second-generation Hybrid Capture (HCA II) test is a non-radioactive, relatively rapid, liquid hybridization assay designed to detect 18 HPV types, divide...
متن کاملDetection of Thyroid Hormone Receptor-Binding Activities of Chemicals Using a Yeast Two-Hybrid Assay
The adverse effects of chemicals exerted via estrogen receptors (ER) and androgen receptors (AR) have been studied extensively in recent years. However, those occurring via thyroid hormone receptors (TR) have not been studied enough. We examined the TR-binding activities of thyronine derivatives and alkylphenol derivatives (bisphenol A, parabens and antioxidants with o-t-butylphenol residue) us...
متن کاملDetection of the factor V Leiden mutation by a modified photo-cross-linking oligonucleotide hybridization assay.
BACKGROUND Our previously developed assay for detection of the factor V Leiden mutation (G1691A) based on a nucleic acid photo-cross-linking technology used two allele-specific capture probes and six fluorescein-modified signal-generating reporter probes. We wished to improve the sensitivity and performance of the method. METHODS We developed new reporter probes with approximately 10-fold mor...
