I studied protein-protein interaction using bacteriomatch two and three hybrid system in X-gal indicator plates and used IPTG and Arabinose and inducers for gene expression from different plasmids.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Application

Protein-protein interaction

Starting Material

X gal plates, and BacterioMatch II Two-Hybrid System

Protocol Overview

Third plasmid under arabinose induction was transformed to competent cells containing two plasmids under IPTG induction (containing two interacting proteins)

Tips

None

Results Summary

Found one peptide that could disrupt ESAT6-CFP10 interaction in a bacterial three hybrid system
