Reconstituted Complex

An interaction is inferred between proteins in vitro. This can include proteins in recombinant form or proteins isolated directly from cells with recombinant or purified bait. For example, GST pull-down assays where a GST-tagged protein is first isolated and then used to fish interactors from cell lysates are considered reconstituted complexes (e.g. PUBMED: 14657240, Fig. 4A or PUBMED: 14761940, Fig. 5). This can also include gel-shifts, surface plasmon resonance, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and bio-layer interferometry (BLI) experiments. The bait-hit directionality may not be clear for 2 interacting proteins. In these cases the directionality is up to the discretion of the curator.

Membrane targeting and activation of the Lowe syndrome protein OCRL1 by rab GTPases.

Hyvola N, Diao A, McKenzie E, Skippen A, Cockcroft S, Lowe M

The X-linked disorder oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe is caused by mutation of the OCRL1 protein, an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase. OCRL1 is localised to the Golgi apparatus and early endosomes, and can translocate to lamellipodia upon growth factor stimulation. We show here that OCRL1 interacts with several members of the rab family of small GTPases. Strongest interaction is seen with Golgi-associated ... [more]
