[Abstract] Protein-protein interactions play key roles in nuclear processes including transcription, replication, DNA damage repair, and recombination. Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) followed by western blot or mass spectrometry is an invaluable approach to identify protein-protein interactions. One of the challenges in the Co-IP of a protein localized to nucleus is the extraction of nuclear proteins from sub-nuclear fractions without losing physiologically relevant protein interactions. Here we describe a protocol for native Co-IP, which was originally used to successfully identify previously known as ...
[摘要] [摘要]蛋白质间相互作用 在核过程中起关键作用，包括转录，复制，DNA损伤修复和重组。免疫共沉淀（Co-IP），然后进行蛋白质印迹或质谱分析是鉴定蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用的宝贵方法。在Co-IP中定位于细胞核的蛋白质中的挑战之一是从亚核级分中提取核蛋白质，而又不会失去生理上相关的蛋白质相互作用。在这里，我们描述了一种用于天然Co-IP的协议，该协议最初用于成功地识别以前称为新拓扑拓扑异构酶1（TOP1）相互作用的蛋白质。在此协议中，我们首先通过依次增加去污剂和盐浓度来提取核蛋白，然后将提取的级分稀释，合并并用于Co-IP。该协议可用于鉴定多种哺乳动物细胞中其他染色质相关蛋白的蛋白相互作用组。
背景]钴- IP被广泛地被使用，以解开的错综复杂的关系之间的蛋白复合物和各种染色质交易期间的复制，转录，和基因组的维护。但是，它是具有挑战性的，以保持不稳定的蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用的完整过程中提取，免疫沉淀和一个共同的IP实验的洗涤步骤。稳定不稳定蛋白质相互作用的一种方法是在细胞裂解之前用细胞可渗透的可逆化学交联剂（例如丙酸二硫代双琥珀酰亚胺酯）处理细胞（Smith等人，2011）。由于该方法伴随着诸如提取效率低和非特异性蛋白质捕获之类的缺点，因此优选不交联的Co-IP（天然IP）。
一核蛋白质可以被分配到不同的子-核舱或染色质区域是需要不同程度的严格性为它的提取和溶解。对于例如，TOP ...

[Abstract] After stroke and brain contusion, serum proteins extravasate into nerve tissue through disrupted blood-brain barrier (BBB). Because extravasations of serum proteins result in vasogenic brain edema, serum albumin level in the brain is an indicator of BBB disruption and brain edema after brain insults. In this protocol, extravasation of endogenous albumin is measured in the damaged mouse brain, which would be valuable in the evaluation of vasogenic brain edema formation (Michinaga et al., 2014).
[摘要] 在中风和脑挫伤后，血清蛋白通过破裂的血脑屏障（BBB）外渗到神经组织中。 因为血清蛋白的外渗导致血管性脑水肿，脑中的血清白蛋白水平是脑损伤后BBB破坏和脑水肿的指标。 在该方案中，在损伤的小鼠脑中测量内源性白蛋白的外渗，这在评价血管性脑水肿形成中是有价值的（Michinaga等人，2014）。

[Abstract] G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest group of cell-surface proteins and are major molecular targets for drug development. The protocol described herein is for the detection of human GPCR signaling in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Using Zoanthus sp. green fluorescent protein (ZsGreen) as the reporter, engineered yeast cells expressing human GPCRs emit strong fluorescence in response to stimuli leading to receptor signal activation. This assay method would allow screening for agonistic ligands and critical mutations required for human GPCR ...
[摘要] G蛋白偶联受体（GPCR）是最大的细胞表面蛋白质组，是药物开发的主要分子靶标。 本文所述的方案用于在酵母酿酒酵母中检测人GPCR信号传导。 使用 Zoanthus 绿色荧光蛋白（ZsGreen ）作为报告物，表达人GPCR的工程化酵母细胞响应于导致受体信号活化的刺激而发射强荧光。 该测定方法将允许筛选激动剂配体和人GPCR信号传导所需的关键突变。
