Abstract

The identification of individual protein-protein interactions (PPIs) began more than 40 years ago, using protein affinity chromatography and antibody co-immunoprecipitation. As new technologies emerged, analysis of PPIs increased to a genome-wide scale with the introduction of intracellular tagging methods, affinity purification (AP) followed by mass spectrometry (MS), and co-fractionation MS (CF-MS). Now, combining the resulting catalogs of interactions with complementary methods, including crosslinking MS (XL-MS) and cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM), helps distinguish direct interactions from indirect ones within the same or between different protein complexes. These powerful approaches and the…
