Tiivistelmä
High-precision mapping of regions involved in protein-protein interfaces of interacting protein partners is an essential component on a path to understand various cellular functions. Trans poson-based systems, particularly those involving in vitro reactions, offer exhaustive insertion mutant libraries and high-throughput platforms for many types of genetic analyses. We present here a genetic strategy to accurately map interacting protein regions at amino acid precision that is based on transposition-assisted construction, sampling, and analysis of a comprehensive insertion mutant library. The methodology integrates random pentapeptide mutagenesis of proteins, yeast two-hybrid screening, and high-resolution genetic footprinting. This straightforward strategy is general, and it provides a rapid and easy means to identify critical contact regions in proteins without the requirement of prior structural knowledge.
