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.

SUMO E3 ligases are expressed in the retina and regulate SUMOylation of the metabotropic glutamate receptor 8b.

The central nervous system regulates neuronal excitability by macromolecular signalling complexes that consist of functionally related proteins, including neurotransmitter receptors, enzymes and scaffolds. The composition of these signal complexes is regulated by post-translational modifications, such as phosphorylation and SUMOylation (SUMO is small ubiquitin-related modifier). In the present study, we searched for proteins interacting with the intracellular C-termini of the metabotropic ... [more]
