Nuclear Yeast Two-hybrid (Y2H)

The yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) technique is a protein interaction research method developed based on studies of the yeast transcription factor GAL4. It is conducted within eukaryotic yeast cells, aiming to preserve the natural folding state of the proteins as much as possible, allowing the interactions between fusion proteins to occur under conditions similar to those in vivo.

Description

Principle

The transcriptional activation protein initiates the transcription of related genes by binding to specific sequences on the DNA. The transcriptional activation protein is composed of two independent domains: a DNA binding domain (BD) and a transcriptional activation domain (AD). Under normal circumstances, the BD can bind to the upstream activating sequence of GAL4 (GALUAS) but cannot induce transcription. Similarly, the AD alone cannot bind to GALUAS. Only when fusion proteins, each expressing either the BD or AD, interact and come into close spatial proximity can they bind to GALUAS and induce the transcription of the reporter gene.

Our Advantages:

A. Library Selection Advantages:

  1. Customized yeast libraries with unique "one library, four uses" (single-hybrid, double-hybrid, triple-hybrid, overexpression vector library) options: utilizing optimized versions of Clontech’s pGADT7-Rec2, GATEWAY secondary recombination method, and the "one-step recombination" library.
  2. Providing commercial yeast cDNA libraries.

 

B. Screening Service Advantages:

The yeast nuclear system two-hybrid system can study binary interactions between proteins. The screening steps are optimized, with mature experimental procedures, providing reliable experimental data and original images.

 

C. High-throughput screening (Y2H-seq) can be performed after the screening.
