Main Methods:

  • Development of a microfluidic approach named MAPS (Microfluidic system Analyzing Protein in Single complex).
  • Digital counting of individual protein events to determine interaction ratios.
  • Characterization of protein complexes using the MAPS platform.

Main Results:

  • MAPS enables quantification of target proteins and complexes at single-molecule resolution.
  • The system provides protein interaction ratios, crucial for signal transduction dynamics.
  • Characterization of EGFR/Src and EGFR/STAT3 complexes before and after EGF stimulation was achieved.
  • MAPS offers a significantly faster analysis time (under one hour) compared to conventional methods.

Conclusions:

  • MAPS is the first platform to characterize the interaction ratio between EGFR and its downstream proteins.
  • This digital microfluidic system provides critical insights into protein signal transduction quantitation and dynamics.
  • The MAPS platform offers a powerful new tool for advancing research in molecular signaling pathways.
