Abstract

 

Low?affinity extracellular protein interactions are critical for cellular recognition processes, but are not generally detected by methods that can be applied in a high?throughput manner. This unit describes a protein microarray platform that significantly improves the throughput of assays capable of detecting transient extracellular protein interactions. These methodological improvements now permit screening for novel extracellular receptor?ligand interactions on a genome?wide scale. Curr. Protoc.

Figures

  •   Figure 27.5.1 Workflows involved in low‐affinity interaction detection by AVEXIS. Bait and prey proteins are produced as soluble recombinant proteins by transiently transfecting a mammalian cell line. The proteins are purified using an oligo‐His tag using a bespoke purification apparatus (the “Protein Press”) and subsequently printed onto glass slides before screening for interactions.

(A ) Design of the monomeric enzymatically monobiotinylated bait and pentamerized, enzyme‐tagged prey proteins. (B ) Construction of the protein microarrays by printing the monomeric biotinylated bait proteins on streptavidin‐coated slides. (C ) Procedure for screening of the protein microarrays with the prey proteins to detect interactions.

  •   Figure 27.5.3 An image of a processed microarray slide illustrating typical results. Bait proteins were serially diluted and printed onto a microarray (with the most concentrated solutions at the top) before being probed with an appropriate prey. Positive interactions are detected in a concentration‐dependent manner. The slides also contain prey‐positive controls, landing marks (biotinylated HRP), and negative controls.
