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.

Binding of brain spectrin to the 70-kDa neurofilament subunit protein.

Frappier T, Regnouf F, Pradel LA

Brain spectrin, or fodrin, a major protein of the subaxolemmal cytoskeleton, associates specifically in in vitro assays with the 70-kDa neurofilament subunit (NF-L) and with glial filaments from pig spinal cord. As an initial approach to the identification of the fodrin-binding proteins, a crude preparation of neurofilaments was resolved by electrophoresis on SDS/polyacrylamide gels and then transferred to nitrocellulose paper, ...
