48 results about "Bimolecular fluorescence complementation" patented technology

Bimolecular fluorescence complementation (also known as BiFC) is a technology typically used to validate protein interactions. It is based on the association of fluorescent protein fragments that are attached to components of the same macromolecular complex. Proteins that are postulated to interact are fused to unfolded complementary fragments of a fluorescent reporter protein and expressed in live cells. Interaction of these proteins will bring the fluorescent fragments within proximity, allowing the reporter protein to reform in its native three-dimensional structure and emit its fluorescent signal. This fluorescent signal can be detected and located within the cell using an inverted fluorescence microscope that allows imaging of fluorescence in cells. In addition, the intensity of the fluorescence emitted is proportional to the strength of the interaction, with stronger levels of fluorescence indicating close or direct interactions and lower fluorescence levels suggesting interaction within a complex. Therefore, through the visualisation and analysis of the intensity and distribution of fluorescence in these cells, one can identify both the location and interaction partners of proteins of interest.

Method for screening interacting protein based on bimolecular fluorescence complementation technique

The invention discloses a method for screening interacting protein based on the bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) technique. The method comprises the steps of 1, dividing YGFP into an N end (sequence 1, 1-157) and a C end (sequence 1, 158-238); connecting a coding gene of target protein A to the 3' terminal of an N-end coding gene through a connecting sequence (connecting peptide as shown in coding sequence 2), so as to form a fusion gene fragment A; connecting a coding gene of target protein B to the 5' terminal or 3' terminal of a C-end coding gene through the connecting sequence, so as to form a fusion gene fragment B; and 2, importing the fusion gene fragments A and B into receptor yeast cells, conducting culture to obtain transgenic yeast cells, and detecting whether the transgenic yeast cells generate green fluorescence, wherein an interaction or candidate interaction relation exists between the target protein A and the target protein B if yes, and no interaction or candidate interaction relation exists between the target protein A and the target protein B if not. The BiFC technique has high sensitivity and specificity, and is suitable for high-throughput protein-protein interaction screening in yeast.

Imaging and tracking of interaction between proteins in living cells by utilizing bimolecular fluorescence complementation technology based on self-linkage label

The invention discloses imaging and tracking of interaction between proteins in living cells by utilizing bimolecular fluorescence complementation technology based on a self-linkage label, and revealsan interaction relation between the proteins and explores that a dynamic behavior of an interaction compound is already become a hot spot for proteomics research. The interaction between proteins forms a basis of cellular activity. An existing method for researching the interaction of the proteins do not simultaneously have the characteristics of living cells, high temporal-spatial resolution, single molecules and the like, and therefore, a new method for making and tracking the interaction between the proteins needs to be developed. The invention discloses a method for novel marking the interaction compound of the proteins by adopting the bimolecular fluorescence complementation based on the self-linkage label. The self-linkage label is split into two parts at the proper site, and two proteins having the interaction effect are fused respectively, and due to the interaction of the two proteins, the split self-linkage labels are pulled spatially and closely so as to form a complete self-linkage label; by adding dyes, the interaction compound can give out fluorescent light. The novel marking method utilizing the bimolecular fluorescence complementation based on the self-linkage label is widely applied to cell biology, and single molecular horizontal detection and tracking on the interaction of the pair of proteins in the cells in a high temporal-spatial resolution manner can berealized.
