Title:
METHOD FOR HIGHLY SENSITIVE DETECTION OF PROTEIN-PROTEIN INTERACTION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/137717
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is an assay system which utilizes a split luciferase and has a significantly high sensitivity. In an embodiment of the assay system, for the purpose of detecting the binding between a first protein and a second protein both having a binding ability to each other, a first fusion protein of the first protein and a peptide having an amino acid sequence depicted in SEQ ID NO: 1 is prepared, a second fusion protein of the second protein and a peptide having an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of the sequences depicted in SEQ ID NO: 2 to SEQ IS NO: 6 is prepared, the first fusion protein and the second fusion protein are allowed to interact with each other to form a complex, and subsequently the luminescent activity of the complex is determined.
