Computational Prediction of Amino Acid Preferences of Potentially Multispecific Peptide-Binding Domains Involved in Protein-Protein Interactions

We describe a methodology based on sequence diversification to estimate the amino acid preferences of multispecific binding sites in protein-protein interactions (PPIs). In this strategy, thousands of potential peptide ligands are generated and screened in silico, thus overcoming some limitations of available experimental...

Conservation of Protein Domains Over Different Proteins

Protein domains are small structurally independent units that are part of a single amino acid chain.  Although these domains are often structurally independent, they may rely on synergistic effects to perform their functions as part of a larger protein. Protein domains may be conserved within the same organism, as well as across different organisms.
A limited set of protein domains often duplicate and recombine during evolution. These domains can be organized in different combinations to...

A Protocol for Computer-Based Protein Structure and Function Prediction

Guidelines for computer based structural and functional characterization of protein using the I-TASSER pipeline is described. Starting from query protein sequence, 3D models are generated using multiple threading alignments and iterative structural assembly simulations. Functional inferences are thereafter drawn based on matches to proteins with known structure and...

β-Lactamase-Based Conductimetric Biosensor Assay for Protein-Protein Interactions

This video demonstrates a conductimetric biosensor assay to study the interaction of an antibody with a target antigen immobilized on a transducer chip. The biosensor is engineered to have a bifunctional chimeric protein — a β-lactamase enzyme with a functional catalytic site fused to a nanobody for binding to the immobilized target antigen. Upon binding, the catalytic hydrolysis of an antibiotic substrate by the β-lactamase enzyme generates an electrical signal —...

Fluorescence Anisotropy-Based Detection of Protein-Protein Interactions

In this video, we describe the fluorescence anisotropy technique to study the interactions between the fluorophore-tagged Shwachman-diamond syndrome (SBDS) protein and the elongation factor-like 1 GTPase (EFL1). On incubating SBDS proteins with gradually increasing concentrations of EFL1, a steady increase in anisotropy is observed, indicating a successful interaction between the two...

Mass Spectrometry-Based Proteomics Analyses Using the OpenProt Database to Unveil Novel Proteins Translated from Non-Canonical Open Reading Frames

OpenProt is a freely accessible database that enforces a polycistronic model of eukaryotic genomes. Here, we present a protocol for the use of OpenProt databases when interrogating mass spectrometry datasets. Using OpenProt database for analysis of proteomic experiments allows for discovery of novel and previously undetectable proteins.
