Split ubiquitin as a sensor of protein interactions in vivo.
We describe an assay for in vivo protein interactions. Protein fusions containing ubiquitin, a 76-residue, single-domain protein, are rapidly cleaved in vivo by ubiquitin-specific proteases, which recognize the folded conformation of ubiquitin. When a C-terminal fragment of ubiquitin (C(ub)) is expressed as a fusion to a reporter protein, the fusion is cleaved only if an N-terminal fragment of ...
متن کاملImproved split-ubiquitin screening technique to identify surface membrane protein-protein interactions.
Yeast-based methods are still the workhorse for the detection of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) in vivo. Yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) systems, however, are limited to screening for a specific group of molecules that interact in a particular cell compartment. For this reason, the split-ubiquitin system (SUS) was developed to allow screening of cDNA libraries of full-length membrane proteins for p...
متن کاملAnalysis of protein-protein proximities using the split-ubiquitin system.
The split-ubiquitin system is a fragment complementation assay that is based on a conditional proteolysis design. The system has been used to study protein-protein interactions between membrane proteins and to screen for new interaction partners for transcription factors. This paper outlines the recent progress in the split-ubiquitin technology that has been made possible through the developmen...
متن کاملA genetic system based on split-ubiquitin for the analysis of interactions between membrane proteins in vivo.
A detection system for interactions between membrane proteins in vivo is described. The system is based on split-ubiquitin [Johnsson, N. & Varshavsky, A. (1994) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 91, 10340-10344]. Interaction between two membrane proteins is detected by proteolytic cleavage of a protein fusion. The cleavage releases a transcription factor, which activates reporter genes in the nucleus....
متن کاملthe significance of conjunction as a cohesive device in teaching writing
the research questions were as follows: 1. is there any relationship between the students concious awareness of the form and implications of the conjuncations and their improvement in using appropriate conjunctions? 2. does students knowledge of the from and the implications of the conjunctions help them to produce more coherent writings. 3. does a comparison between english conjunctions and th...
