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.

Distinct Interaction Modes for the Eukaryotic RNA Polymerase Alpha-like Subunits.

Belkevich AE, Pascual HG, Fakhouri AM, Ball DG, Knutson BA

Eukaryotic DNA-dependent RNA polymerases (Pols I-III) encode two distinct alpha-like heterodimers where one is shared between Pols I and III, and the other is unique to Pol II. Human alpha-like subunit mutations are associated with several diseases including Treacher Collins Syndrome (TCS), 4H leukodystrophy, and primary ovarian sufficiency. Yeast is commonly used to model human disease mutations, yet it remains ... [more]
