Abstract

Summary: In vivo protein–protein interactions are frequently studied by means of yeast two‐hybrid analysis. However, interactions detected in yeast might differ considerably in the plant system. Based on GAL4 DNA‐binding (BD) and activation domains (AD) we established an Arabidopsis protoplast two‐hybrid (P2H) system. The use of Gateway®‐compatible vectors enables the high‐throughput screening of protein–protein interactions in plant cells. The efficiency of the system was tested by examining the homo‐ and heterodimerization properties of basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factors. A comprehensive heterodimerization matrix of Arabidopsis thaliana group C and group S bZIP transcription factors was generated by comparing the results of yeast and protoplast two‐hybrid experiments. Surprisingly, almost no homodimerization but rather specific and selective heterodimerization was detected. Heterodimers were preferentially formed between group C members (AtbZIP9, ‐10, ‐25, ‐63) and members of group S1 (AtbZIP1, ‐2, ‐11, ‐44, ‐53). In addition, significant but low‐affinity interactions were detected inside group S1, S2 or C AtbZIPs, respectively. As a quantitative approach, P2H identified weak heterodimerization events which were not detected in the yeast system. Thus, in addition to cell biological techniques, P2H is a valuable tool for studying protein–protein interaction in living plant cells.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
