Yeast Two-Hybrid Technique to Identify Protein-Protein Interactions.

Protein-protein interactions are specific and direct physical contact between two or more proteins, and the interaction involves hydrogen bonding, electrostatic forces, and hydrophobic forces. Majority of biological processes in the living cell are executed by proteins, and any particular protein function is regulated by numerous other proteins. Thus, knowledge of protein-protein interaction is necessary to understand the biological processes. In this chapter, we explain the widely used yeast two-hybrid assay to identify the protein-interacting partners. © 2023.
