چکیده

Proteins from Sendai virus particles and from infected cells were analyzed in a protein-blotting protein-overlay assay for their interaction with in vitro-synthesized, [35S]methionine-labeled viral proteins NP, P, and M. After separation by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, transfer onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes, and renaturation, the immobilized proteins were found to interact specifically with radiolabeled proteins. NP proteins from virus particles and from infected cells retained 35S-P protein equally well. Conversely, P protein from virus particles and from infected cells retained 35S-NP protein. 35S-M protein was retained mainly by NP protein but also by several cellular proteins. To determine the domains on NP protein required for binding to immobilized P protein, a series of truncated and internally deleted 35S-NP proteins was constructed. The only deletion that did not affect binding resides between residues 426 and 497. The carboxyl-terminal 27 residues (positions 498 to 524) contribute significantly to the binding affinity. Removal of 20 residues (positions 225 to 244) in the hydrophobic middle part of NP protein completely abolished its binding to P protein.

Discovering Domains Mediating Protein Interactions

Background: Protein-protein interactions do not provide any direct information re‌garding the domains within the proteins that mediate the interactions. The majority of proteins are multi domain proteins and the interaction between them is often defined by the pairs of their domains. Most of the former studies focus only on interacting do‌main pairs. However they do not consider the in...

Expression of the VP2 gene of classical D78 infectious bursal disease virus in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris as a secretory protein

Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is the causative agent of Gumboro disease, an infectious disease of global economic importance in poultry. The expression of heterologous proteins in P.pastoris is fast, simple and inexpensive. In this study, VP2 encoding gene of classical D78 IBDV was amplified using reverse transcription (RT) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and cloned into pPICZαA vector...
