Abstract

 

The classical yeast two?hybrid system and its modifications have been successfully used over the past decade to investigate interactions between most classes of proteins expressed in a given cell or tissue. However, some proteins (e.g., integral membrane proteins or nuclear proteins) are relatively difficult to investigate by standard yeast two?hybrid methods either because they are retained at cellular membranes or they activate the system in the absence of a true protein interaction. The membrane?based yeast two?hybrid (MbY2H) system presented in this unit overcomes some of these limitations. It is based on the split?ubiquitin protein complementation assay and detects protein interactions directly at the membrane, thereby allowing the use of full?length integral membrane proteins and membrane?associated proteins as baits to hunt for novel interaction partners. A simple modification also allows the use of proteins that are self?activating in a classical yeast two?hybrid system (e.g., acidic proteins and many transcription factors). Like the yeast two?hybrid system, the MbY2H system can also be used for interaction discovery by screening complex cDNA libraries for novel interaction partners. Curr. Protoc.
