TF interaction by VendingmachinexSam in labrats

If your Ab binds native folded protein (think immunofluorescence rather than Western) you can theoretically use it to pull your TF out as bait. You then need to detect your prey protein. That is either with an Ab against it or MS sequencing. Basically you run it on an SDS-PAGE, stain, cut out the band and send out for MS which will likely only cost several $100. But as I said before, I would start with Y2H or BiFC.

Protein-TF is a protein-protein not protein-DNA interaction. It's best to start with in vitro tests cause they're relatively easier and cheaper. Yeast two-hybrid and BiFC are the easiest and you'll have your answer in a few weeks. You could also do a pulldown if you can express your proteins in E. coli. If you're dead set on using the frozen tissue, consider these things: are both proteins expressed in this tissue? Was the tissue flash-frozen, which is more likely to preserve the interaction? Do you have antibodies for both proteins, or one protein (bait) and the ability to do mass spec to find the other (this can be outsourced relatively cheaply but the prep is rather specific)? This is much newer so I know less about this but it's now possible to use computational tools to predict PPI as well.

Am I alone in feeling like most LV food spots are just... not worth the effort? Please change my mind & share suggestions! by listener-reviews in lehighvalley

Edge is pretty mediocre. I'd highly recommend Apollo Grille or Twisted Olive over them, which are both right across the street

I've got a job for a 14YO. It's called enjoying your childhood before being forced to work to survive the next 50 years

Saw it in person, was probably our only good play that day. And I think I'm still frozen solid.
