Tracking transcription factor mobility and interaction in Arabidopsis roots with fluorescence correlation spectroscopy
To understand complex regulatory processes in multicellular organisms, it is critical to be able to quantitatively analyze protein movement and protein-protein interactions in time and space. During Arabidopsis development, the intercellular movement of SHORTROOT (SHR) and subsequent interaction with its downstream target SCARECROW (SCR) control root patterning and cell fate specification. Howe...
متن کاملImaging Fos-Jun Transcription Factor Mobility and Interaction in Live Cells by Single Plane Illumination-Fluorescence Cross Correlation Spectroscopy
We collected mobility and interaction maps of c-Fos-eGFP and c-Jun-mRFP1 transcription factors within living cell nuclei. c-Fos dimerizes with c-Jun to form the transcription activator protein-1 (AP-1) which binds to the specific recognition site. To monitor this process, we used fluorescence cross-correlation spectroscopy on a single plane illumination microscope (SPIM-FCCS), which provides di...
متن کاملMonitoring the interaction between DNA and a transcription factor (MEF2A) using fluorescence correlation spectroscopy.
Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) is an analytical method that allows distinguishing different populations of fluorescent probes in solution and provides data on their concentrations and their diffusion coefficients. FCS was used to characterize the interaction of the transcription factor (MEF2A) with its DNA target sequence. The myocyte enhancer factor 2 (MEF2) belongs to the MADS-bo...
متن کاملFluorescence correlation spectroscopy and fluorescence cross-correlation spectroscopy.
This article focuses on methods based on fluctuation correlation spectroscopy to determine the formation of protein complexes in living cells. We present the principles of the fluctuation method applied to cells. We discuss the novelty and the promises of this approach. The emphasis is in the discussion of the underlying statistical assumptions of the image correlation spectroscopy analysis rat...
متن کاملUnraveling transcription factor interactions with heterochromatin protein 1 using fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy.
The epigenetic control of heterochromatin deposition is achieved through a network of protein interactions mediated by the heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1). In earlier studies, we showed that the CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (C/EBPα), a transcription factor that controls cell differentiation, localizes to heterochromatin, and interacts with HP1α. Here, deletion and mutagenesis are combin...
