Liquid Y2H-Seq, a rapid and data-rich alternative to conventional yeast
two-hybrid screening
Abstract
Highly laborious plating of cultures onto solid media is inevitable in
conventional yeast two-hybrid systems. We have successfully developed
Liquid Y2H-Seq, a method which replaces solid media with liquid media
for culturing and that displaces visual inspection of colonies with
sequencing. Soybean (Glycine max) is a typical photoperiod-sensitive
crop, meaning that specific duration light regime has a huge impact on
soybean flowering and production. We obtained a lot of putatively
interactions for soybean flowering genes. Finally, these reports
introduce a labor-reducing and time-saving method for identifying
protein-protein interactions, based on simple modifications to a
ubiquitous protocol in life science research.
