Problems solved by technology

However, most of these methods are based on in vitro studies and cannot directly demonstrate their inhibitory effects, and the screened lead compounds need to be further verified at the cellular level or in vivo.
Current screening and validation methods are lacking

Abstract

The invention discloses a fluorescent protein iRFP-based dimolecular fluorescent fragment complementary system, and applications. According to the fluorescent protein iRFP-based dimolecular fluorescent fragment complementary system, phytochrome fluorescent protein iRFP is taken as a template, and is divided into a non-fluorescent nitrogen terminal fragment iRN97 and a non-fluorescent carbon terminal fragment iRC98 at the amino acid 97-98 sites; when fusion expression of the two fragments with protein pairs with interactions is realized, the two non-fluorescent fragments are drawn to be close to generate iRFP fluorescence; fusion expression of iRN97 with human immunodeficiency virus integrase IN, and fusion expression of iRC98 with cell protein P75 are realized respectively, the interaction between IN and p75 is studied in living cells via fluorescent complementation of iRN97 with iRC98; when a drug is capable of inhibiting the protein-protein interaction, it is impossible for iRN97 and iRC98 to be drawn to be close, so that fluorescence recovery is inhibited. The fluorescent protein iRFP-based dimolecular fluorescent fragment complementation system is a simple, effective, and convenient evaluation system of drugs used for inhibiting protein interactions.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of drug evaluation for inhibiting protein interaction, and more specifically relates to a fluorescent protein iRFP-based bimolecular fluorescent fragment complementation system and its application. Background technique [0002] Fluorescent Fragment Complementation System is a kind of fragment complementation system using fluorescent protein as material. The basic principle is to split the fluorescent protein into nitrogen-terminal and carbon-terminal fragments at appropriate sites, and if the two fragments are not under the action of interacting proteins, they cannot spontaneously complement each other to restore fluorescence. If a pair of interacting proteins are respectively fused to the nitrogen-terminal and carbon-terminal fragments of the split fluorescent protein, under the action of this pair of interacting proteins, the nitrogen-terminal fragment and the carbon-terminal fragment of the split fluoresc...
