Atypical Membrane Topology and Heteromeric Function of Drosophila Odorant Receptors In Vivo

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that OR83b heterodimerizes with conventional ORs early in the endomembrane system in OSNs, couples these complexes to the conserved ciliary trafficking pathway, and is essential to maintain the OR/OR83b complex within the sensory cilia, where odor signal transduction occurs.
Journal ArticleDOI

An in Vivo Map of the Yeast Protein Interactome

TL;DR: A genome-wide in vivo screen for protein-protein interactions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by means of a protein-fragment complementation assay (PCA) identified 2770 interactions among 1124 endogenously expressed proteins, revealing a previously unexplored subspace of the yeast protein interactome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Erythropoietin Receptor Activation by a Ligand-Induced Conformation Change

TL;DR: An in vivo protein fragment complementation assay was used to obtain evidence for an alternative mechanism in which unliganded erythropoietin receptor dimers exist in a conformation that prevents activation of JAK2 but then undergo a ligand-induced conformation change that allows JAK1 to be activated.
Journal ArticleDOI

A highly sensitive protein-protein interaction assay based on Gaussia luciferase

TL;DR: A new PCA assay is described, based on the Gaussia princeps luciferase enzyme, demonstrating chemical reversal, and induction and inhibition of a key interaction linking insulin and TGFβ signaling.
