AtCAP1 ... The proline-rich stretch from amino acids 227 to 237 (Figure 1) may have the potential to bind to SH3 proteins because the conserved prolines at positions 7 and 10 match the consensus PXXP sequence (where X is any amino acid) that is involved in interaction with the SH3 domain. CAPs from other organisms also have one or two proline-rich sequences in the middle region, which is shown as an SH3 protein binding motif (Freeman et al., 1996

• Protein-protein interaction

To further demonstrate the physical interaction between AtRbx1 and the AtCul1 protein, we performed pull-down assays. AtRbx1;1 was expressed in Escherichia coli as a translational fusion protein with GST. The purified GST-Rbx1 fusion protein (or GST alone as a control) was incubated with Arabidopsis crude protein extracts, and the bound plant proteins were immunoblotted with the AtCul1 antibody. AtCul1 co-purified with the GST-Rbx1 fusion protein but not with the GST protein alone

• Protein-protein interaction

AtRbx1 was cloned into the pGBKT7 bait plasmid to produce a fusion protein with Gal4 DNA binding domain. Another small Arabidopsis RingH2 protein (49) not related to the primary protein sequence of AtRbx1 was also introduced into pGBKT7 plasmid. AtCul1 (At4g02570) and AtCul4 (At5g46210) were cloned into the prey pGADT7 vector to produce fusion proteins with the Gal4 activation domain. Only AtRbx1 and not the other small RingH2 protein interacted with the cullin proteins by the two-hybrid assay (Fig. 3 A). β-Galactosidase activities, used to quantify the protein interactions, indicated that the AtRbx1 interacts similarly with both AtCul1 and AtCul4 proteins (Fig.3 B

• Protein-protein interaction

To identify potential targets of the activated BRI1 receptor kinase in response to BR signal, we conducted a yeast two-hybrid screening using the kinase domain of BRI1 (BRI1CK) as the bait. Out of 96 positive BRI1-interacting clones, 60 were found to be derived from the same Arabidopsis gene (At5g58220) that encodes a hypothetical protein of 324 amino acids ... we deleted the N-terminal 29 amino acids to create a truncated TTL protein, TTLΔN29, and tested its interaction with the BRI1 kinase domain by the yeast two-hybrid assay. As shown in Table 1, TTLΔN29 failed to interact with BRI1CK, confirming that these 29 amino acids are crucial for the TTL–BRI1 interaction. To determine if such a 29–amino acid peptide is sufficient for binding to BRI1, we made a chimeric protein, TTLN29:BES1, by fusing the 29–amino acid peptide to BES1, a nuclear BR signaling protein that does not interact with BRI1 (Yin et al., 2002; Zhao et al., 2002). The resulting chimeric protein was then tested by the yeast two-hybrid assay for its interaction with BRI1CK. As shown in Table 1, the TTLN29:BES1 fusion protein did not interact with BRI1CK in yeast cells. These results indicated that whereas the N-terminal 29 amino acids are essential for the TTL–BRI1 interaction, they are not sufficient to bind BRI1 ... Using the yeast two-hybrid assay, we also tested the interaction between TTL with three mutated BRI1CK, each containing a unique single amino acid change that was identified in three mutant bri1 alleles (bri1-101 changes Glu1078 to Lys, bri1-104 mutates Ala1031 to Thr, and bri1-115 substitutes Gly1048 with Asp). Whereas all three bri1 mutations were known to destroy the in vivo function of BRI1 (Li and Chory, 1997), they have different effects on the BRI1 kinase activity. As shown in Figure 2A, bri1-101 completely eliminates and bri1-115 greatly reduces the autophosphorylation activity of an E. coli–expressed glutathione S-transferase (GST)-BRI1CK fusion protein, whereas bri1-104 mutation reduces the kinase activity of GST-BRI1CK by only ∼50%. Results shown in Figure 2B revealed that an active kinase activity was required for the BRI1–TTL interaction. Both bri1-101 and bri1-115 mutations completely abrogate the BRI1–TTL interaction. By contrast, the BRI1CK containing the bri1-104 mutation can still interact with TTL to the same extent as the wild-type BRI1CK

• Protein-protein interaction

The fact that only the kinase active BRI1CKs were capable of interacting with TTL prompted us to investigate whether TTL might be a substrate for the BRI1 kinase. We fused the full-length TTL with the maltose binding protein (MBP) and expressed the resulting fusion protein in E. coli. After purification, the MBP-TTL fusion protein was mixed with the wild type or the bri1-101–mutated GST-BRI1CK fusion protein and assayed protein phosphorylation. As shown in Figure 2C, the wild-type GST-BRI1CK fusion protein exhibited strong autophosphorylation activity in vitro, whereas no autophosphorylation was detected for the MBP-TTL fusion protein. However, TTL was phosphorylated when the two fusion proteins were mixed together in the kinase assay solution. Because of the similar electrophoretic mobility of the two fusion proteins, only one-fifth of the GST-BRI1CK of the autophosphorylation assay was used in the transphosphorylation assay to clearly reveal the phosphorylated MBP-TTL band. When incubated with the kinase-dead GST-BRI1CK fusion protein, no phosphorylation of TTL was detected, eliminating the possibility that the observed TTL phosphorylation was catalyzed by an unknown E. coli kinase that might be copurified with the GST-BRI1CK fusion protein. No transphosphorylation was detected when the GST-BRI1CK fusion protein was incubated with the MBP alone. Taken together, these in vitro phosphorylation results indicated that BRI1 could phosphorylate TTL in vitro

Since mammalian CUL1 is known to interact with CAND1 (Liu et al., 2002; Zheng et al., 2002; Hwang et al., 2003; Oshikawa et al., 2003), we generated a recombinant Glutathione-S-transferase-HVE (GST-HVE) protein that was used in pull-down experiments. CUL1 was translated in vitro in rabbit reticulocyte lysate in the presence of 35S-Met and then incubated with GST or GST-HVE. As shown by SDS-PAGE gel autoradiography (see Fig. S2A in the supplementary material), GST-HVE, but not GST, was able to interact with CUL1

To substantiate that AtNAP1;1 is a substrate for PFT, protein extracts from wild-type or era1-1 flowers were tested as a source for the enzyme (Fig. 1B). AtNAP1;1 but not AtNAP1;1C369S was labeled in the presence of protein extracts from wild-type flowers, confirming that the protein extract had PFT activity and that AtNAP1;1 could be correctly farnesylated at the Cys acceptor in the CKQQ prenylation motif. The protein extract from era1-1 flowers was unable to farnesylate AtNAP1;1, confirming the lack of PFT activity in the mutant and establishing that AtNAP1;1 is a substrate of PFT. To confirm that AtNAP1;1 is also farnesylated in vivo, we expressed green fluorescent protein (GFP)-AtNAP1;1 and GFP-AtNAP1;1C369S in tobacco BY-2 cells under control of the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter. Soluble proteins from cells labeled with [3H]mevalonic acid were extracted and separated on SDS-polyacrylamide gels, which were then used either for immunoblot analysis with a polyclonal NAP1 antibody or for fluorography to detect labeled GFP-AtNAP1;1 (Fig. 1C). GFP-AtNAP1;1 and GFP-AtNAP1;1C369S were expressed to a similar level in BY-2 cells. A labeled protein corresponding to the size of GFP-AtNAP1;1 was detected only in extracts from cells expressing GFP-AtNAP1;1 but not in cells expressing GFP-AtNAP1;1C369S or in control BY-2 cells. Together, these results establish that AtNAP1;1 is efficiently farnesylated in vivo as well

• Protein-protein interaction

To test if AtNAP1;1 can be prenylated by PFT, we incubated the purified protein with recombinant Arabidopsis PFT and [3H]FPP. AtNAP1;1 was labeled strongly in the presence of both PFT and [3H]FPP but not with PGGT-I using either [3H]FPP or [3H]GGPP (Fig. 1A). AtNAP1;1 was also labeled weakly by PFT using [3H]GGPP, because the enzyme is somewhat promiscuous for GGPP (Trueblood et al., 1993; Lane and Beese, 2006). Mutation of the conserved Cys farnesyl acceptor in the CKQQ motif to Ser (AtNAP1;1C369S) confirmed that farnesylation required a functional farnesylation motif

• Protein-protein interaction

To examine whether Arabidopsis SKB1 methylates histone arginines, we assayed in vitro a GST-SKB1 fusion protein, purified by affinity chromatography from Escherichia coli, for methylation activity, with histones and myelin basic protein (MBP) used as substrates. Both histone and MBP were methylated, but of the five histones (H1, H2A, H2B, H3 and H4), only H4 was methylated (Figure 4F). We then used specific antibodies to examine whether SKB1 methylates H4R3. GST-SKB1 catalyzed H4R3 symmetric dimethylation (H4R3sme2) but not asymmetric dimethylation (Figure 4G), which suggests that SKB1 can symmetrically methylate H4R3 as does PRMT5

To test further the hypothesis that MID is a component of the topoisomerase VI complex, we tested interactions between MID and RHL1 by directed yeast two-hybrid assay and the bimolecular fluorescence complementation assay (BiFC; Walter et al., 2004). Directed yeast two-hybrid assays confirmed the MID–RHL1 interaction found in the yeast two-hybrid screen (data not shown). To independently verify MID–RHL1 interactions by BiFC, we cotransformed plasmids encoding BiFC fusion constructs of the two proteins with the N- or C-terminal part of YFP into Arabidopsis protoplasts. A restored YFP fluorescence was localized in the nuclei of transfected protoplasts, suggesting that MID and RHL1 can interact in planta

• Protein-protein interaction

To substantiate that MID and RHL1 are components of the topoisomerase VI complex in planta, coimmunoprecipitation (Co-IP) experiments were performed. We created transgenic plants harboring the 35S:RHL1-cyan fluorescent protein (CFP) and 35S:HA-RHL2 constructs and transgenic plants harboring the 35S:RHL1-CFP and 35S:HA-MID constructs. In these experiments, we could not detect the HA-MID protein in Co-IP experiments with the MID and RHL1 proteins with anti-HA beads (data not shown). However, we found that HA-RHL2 protein was immunoprecipitated with anti-GFP beads and RHL1-CFP with anti-HA beads from the plants harboring the 35S:RHL1-CFP and 35S:HA-RHL2 constructs

• Protein-protein interaction

To confirm the specific interaction in planta, a bimolecular fluorescence complementation assay was performed using full-length HUB1 and MED21. HUB1 was translationally fused with the N-terminal 155–amino acid portion of the yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) (pHUB1-cYFP), and MED21 was fused with the C-terminal 86–amino acid portion of YFP (pMED21-nYFP). pHUB1-cYFP and pMED21-nYFP were cotransformed into Nicotiana benthamiana leaves through agroinfiltration. YFP fluorescence was observed only when the two constructs were coexpressed (Figure 9B, top row). Leaves from plants infiltrated with either of the constructs alone, or in combination with the empty vector, did not show any YFP fluorescence (Figure 9B, middle and bottom rows). Staining of cells with the fluorescent nuclear stain 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) revealed fluorescence in the nucleus of cells cotransformed with both constructs, indicating interactions in the nucleus. The interaction of HUB1 and MED21 in the nucleus is consistent with the function of HUB1 in histone monoubiquitination and the function of MED21 as a transcriptional coregulator

• Protein-protein interaction

To provide further evidence for such interaction, co-immunoprecipitation experiments were performed using total Arabidopsis leaf protein extraction treated with DNase. Our result showed that SIG6 protein could be precipitated by DG1 antibody, but not by pre-serum (Figure 1c). These results suggested that the interaction of DG1 with SIG6 occurs in vivo

• Protein-protein interaction

To obtain further insight into the function of DG1, a yeast two-hybrid screen was performed to identify its interacting proteins. Fusion of the N-terminal 47 amino acids to GFP revealed that it can be imported to the chloroplast (Figure S1). The DG1 protein lacking amino acids 1–47 of the N-terminal region was used as the bait, and 33 positive clones were selected from 2 × 106 colonies with the Arabidopsis random cDNA expression library. Sequence analysis of the recovered selected clones revealed that eight of the 33 putative interacting preys contained two independent cDNAs of different sizes from the SIG6 gene. Of the eight clones, six cDNAs encoded 2–547 amino acids of the SIG6 protein, whereas the two others encoded 32–547 amino acids. These results indicate that SIG6 is a prevalent DG1-interacting partner in the yeast two-hybrid screen

• Protein-protein interaction

To confirm the interaction between DG1 and SIG6 in plant cells, we performed bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) analysis in the protoplasts of Arabidopsis leaf mesophyll cells (Citovsky et al., 2006). In this assay, DG1 and SIG6 were fused to inactive N-terminal and C-terminal moieties of yellow fluorescent protein (YFP), respectively, and were co-delivered into leaf mesophyll protoplasts in Arabidopsis. Our results showed that YFP fluorescence was observed in the chloroplast of the protoplasts, and merged with the autofluorescence of chlorophylls

Again, positive interactions were detected for each pair of RACK1 and eIF6 proteins (Fig. 4B). The interaction was primarily detected in the cytoplasm and nucleus, which is consistent with the respective subcellular localization of each protein

Therefore we used this technique to test the dimerization ability of truncated PAR1 versions that contain the HLH domain (AHC, HC, NAH and AH) (Figure 5a). The deletion fragments were fused to the GAL4 activation domain (AD) and tested for dimerization against full-length PAR1 fused to the GAL4 DNA-binding domain (BD-PAR1). Only yeast colonies co-expressing AD-PAR1, AD-AHC or AD-HC together with BD-PAR1 grew in SD-AHLT medium (Figure 5a). These results indicated that the interaction was taking place only when both HLH and C-terminal domains were present

• Protein-protein interaction

To confirm a direct interaction between AtNUFIP and At15.5K, we fixed a glutathione S-transferase (GST)-At15.5K recombinant protein to glutathione-sepharose beads to trap in vitro translated [35S]-Met-AtNUFIP. Bound and unbound products were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and revealed by autoradiography. [35S]-Met-AtNUFIP is highly susceptible to proteolysis and gives three major bands of approximately 50 kDa (Figure 3b). These bands were significantly enriched in the GST-At15.5K bound fraction and were not retained on control glutathione-GST beads (Figure 3b). These results confirm that AtNUFIP directly interacts with At15.5K and could be implicated in C/D snoRNP assembly as human NUFIP

• Protein-protein interaction

The PEP motif of AtNUFIP should direct its interaction with At15.5K. In Arabidopsis, At15.5K is encoded by three genes producing nearly identical proteins conserved with their human and yeast orthologues (Figure S1A). Considering that all three At15.5K genes are constitutively expressed (Figure S1B), we randomly chose At15.5K-3 (At4g22380) to test its interaction with AtNUFIP. We first tested their interaction by yeast two-hybrid analysis. The AtNUFIP and At15.5K ORFs were cloned by fusion with the binding (BD) and activating (AD) domains of GAL4. As a negative control, we used the GAL4 AD or BD empty vector. Cells co-transformed with different combinations of these constructs were grown in the presence or absence of histidine selectable marker. Clearly, yeast cells co-transformed with AD-AtNUFIP and BD-At15.5K (or BD-AtNUFIP and AD-At15.5K) could grow in the absence of histidine, revealing an interaction between these two proteins

As we expected both paralogs to associate with U1-70K, we used Y2H assays using U1-70K full length, an N-terminal U1-70K (aa 1–172) and a C-terminal region (aa 179–427), each containing about half of the RRM, as fusions to the DNA-binding domain (Golovkin and Reddy, 1998) paired with U2AF35a as fusions to the activating domain. Earlier we had used these two halves of U1-70K to determine if the interaction between two SR proteins (RSZ21 and RSZ22) and U1-70K was in the region before the RRM or in the region following the RRM (Golovkin and Reddy, 1998). SR45 itself (along with SCL33) had been isolated in a Y2H screen using just the C-terminal part of U1-70K (Golovkin and Reddy, 1999). As shown in Figure 5(b), the U2AF35a paralog could interact with full-length U1-70K and with the N-terminal but not the C-terminal region, a finding that suggested that U2AF35a interacts with U1-70K somewhere in the N-terminal region. The negative BiFC results with U2AF35a could be due to instability of the complex or some post-translational modifications that occur in U2AF35a only in plant cells that might prevent interaction

• Protein-protein interaction

To uncover its mode of action in splicing we searched for the interacting protein partners of SR45 by using it as bait in a Y2H screen. We screened about 50 000 transformants and identified 11 positive clones ... U2AF35b ... interacting protein partner of SR45 ... Control β-galactosidase assays for SR45 and the rescued U2AF35b construct alone showed no β-galactosidase activity whereas a double transformant with rescued U2AF35b and SR45 was positive for β-galactosidase activity (Figure 1a). As the isolated U2AF35b in the screen was truncated (aa 125–283), a full-length U2AF35b clone was cloned and its interaction with SR45 was tested using Y2H. Full-length U2AF35b was also shown to interact with SR45

• Protein-protein interaction

We generated recombinant protein in Escherichia coli and purified it to near homogeneity (Figure 5a). More VLN2 sedimented in the presence of actin filaments (Figure 5b, lane 4) compared to VLN2 alone (Figure 5b, lane 6) under high-speed centrifugation, suggesting that VLN2 binds to actin filaments. A dissociation constant value for the binding of VLN2 to actin filaments of 0.75 μm was calculated for the representative experiment in Figure 5(c), and a mean Kd of 1.3 ± 0.5 μm was determined from three independent experiments. Thus the VLN2 affinity for actin filaments is quite similar to that of VLN3 and VLN5 (Khurana et al., 2010; Zhang et al., 2010). We also determined VLN2 affinity for actin filaments in the presence of various concentrations of free calcium, and found that VLN2 binds to actin filaments with similar affinity across the physiological range of free calcium (Figure 5d).

• Protein-protein interaction

Therefore, we performed yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) assays with the SAMBA protein against all APC/C subunits identified in Arabidopsis and its two coactivators, CCS52A2 and CCS52B. The results revealed a direct interaction of SAMBA with APC3b (Fig. S1A) but not with APC1, APC2, APC3a, APC4, APC5, APC6, APC7, APC8, APC10, APC11, or the activators CCS52A2 and CCS52B. Taken together, the protein interaction data indicate that SAMBA is a component of the APC/C complex in plants, by binding APC3b

• Protein-protein interaction

For the BiFC assays, WRKY8 was fused to the C-terminal yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) fragment (WRKY8-C-YFP) and VQ9 to the N-terminal YFP fragment (VQ9-N-YFP). When fused, WRKY8-C-YFP was co-expressed with VQ9-N-YFP in leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana (tobacco), and the YFP signal was detected in the nuclear compartment of transformed cells, as revealed by staining with 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (Figures 4b and S1a). We did not detect any fluorescence in the negative controls

• Protein-protein interaction

The Gal4 transcription activation-based yeast two-hybrid system was used. The WRKY8 full-length cDNA with a deleted activation domain was fused to the Gal4 DNA-binding domain of the bait vector (BD-WRKY8). After screening, three independent clones encoding VQ9 were identified by prototrophy for His and Ade. To confirm the interaction, the full-length VQ9 cDNA was cloned and introduced into the prey vector (AD-VQ9). The BD-WRKY8 and AD-VQ9 plasmids were co-transformed into yeast and the interaction was reconstructed

• Protein-protein interaction

VQ9 interacted with the WRKY8 fragment that overlapped with its DNA-binding domain, we anticipated that the physical interaction may interfere with the DNA-binding activity of WRKY8. To test this possibility, we generated recombinant proteins in Escherichia coli and tested the WRKY8 binding activity to an oligonucleotide harboring two direct TTGACC W-box repeats (Pr; Figure 6a) using electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). Protein–DNA complexes with reduced migration were detected when WRKY8 was incubated with the DNA probe (Figure 6b); however, when the W-box sequences in the probes were changed from TTGACC to TTGAAC (mPr; Figure 6a), no binding complexes were detected (Figure 6b). These results suggested that the binding of WRKY8 to the W-box sequences is highly specific. When WRKY8 was combined with VQ9 in the binding reactions, we observed the formation of a super-shifted band with significantly lower intensity (Figure 6b). Moreover, when the protein level of VQ9 was doubled (2 × VQ9) in the assay, no visibly retarded band was observed (Figure 6b). Thus, the WRKY8–VQ9 interaction decreased the DNA-binding activity of WRKY8

Next, we tested whether Ser230, the major site of BSK1 phosphorylated by BRI1 (Figure 6) (Tang et al., 2008), is also a BSK1 phosphorylation site for BIN2 and BIL2. As shown in Figure 9(b), both GST–BSK1 and GST–BSK1S230A were equally phosphorylated by MBP–BIN2, as well as by GST–BIL2. This suggests that BSKs are phosphorylated on a residue other than Ser230, and are thus differentially modified by BRI1 and GSK3-like kinases

• Protein-protein interaction

To confirm this interaction in vivo, either AtMBP-1–YFP and Flag-AtSAP5, or LOS2–YFP and Flag-AtSAP5 were expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana by agro-infiltration. Protein extracts isolated from the N. benthamiana were subjected to co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assays. Either AtMBP-1–YFP or LOS2–YFP fusion proteins were immunoprecipitated from the plant extracts using the anti-GFP agarose. Flag-AtSAP5 was detected in the AtMBP-1–YFP:Flag-AtSAP5 immunocomplex using the anti-Flag antibody Figure 1(d). By contrast, no signal was detected in reactions using LOS2–YFP and Flag-AtSAP5

• Protein-protein interaction

To confirm this interaction in plant cells, biomolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) analysis was performed by co-infiltrating constructs that encode nYFP-AtSAP5 and AtMBP-1-cYFP into N. benthamiana. Fluorescence signal, indicating interaction between nYFP-AtSAP5 and AtMBP-1-cYFP, was detected in cells of the agro-infiltrated tissue within a nuclear subcompartment, possibly corresponding with the nucleolus

• Protein-protein interaction

In order to identify potential interacting partners of AtSAP5, yeast two-hybrid screening was conducted using AtSAP5 as bait and an Arabidopsis cDNA library as prey. From this screening, 36 cDNA clones were obtained and sequence analysis indicated that six of these cDNAs represented transcripts derived from the LOS2 gene ... This finding raised the possibility that, as in mammalian cells, an Arabidopsis MBP-1-like protein (AtMBP-1) could be produced as an alternative translation product of the LOS2 gene. To determine which of these putative gene products interacts with AtSAP5, specific yeast two-hybrid assays were performed. For this assay, LOS2 and AtMBP-1 coding sequences were cloned into both bait (pGBKT7) and prey (pGADT7) yeast vectors, and each construct was co-transformed into yeast cells with a complementary AtSAP5 construct Figure 1(a). Yeast cells transformed with vectors that co-express AtMBP-1 and AtSAP5 proteins grew well under high stringency conditions, while yeast cells transformed with LOS2/enolase and AtSAP5 did not, indicating strong interaction between AtSAP5 and AtMBP-1 but not between AtSAP5 and LOS2/enolase

• Protein-protein interaction

The interaction between AtMBP-1 and AtSAP5 identified through yeast two-hybrid assays was verified with in vitro protein pull-down assays Figure 1(c). His-Trx-AtMBP-1, His-LOS2, and GST-AtSAP5 constructs were transformed into Escherichia. coli and the expressed proteins purified using either His-or GST resin, respectively. His-Trx-AtMBP-1 or His-LOS2 fusion proteins were incubated with the GST-AtSAP5 fusion protein and, after extensive washing, the bound proteins were eluted from the GST resin by reduced glutathione. The eluted proteins were analyzed on immuno-blots probed with anti-His and anti-GST antibodies. Consistent with the results of yeast two- hybrid assay, His-Trx-AtMBP-1 was pulled down by GST-AtSAP5, while His-LOS2 did not bind effectively to GST-AtSAP5

• Protein-protein interaction

For yeast three-hybrid assays, TT2, PAP1 and PAP2 were individually fused to the activation domain (AD-TT2, AD-PAP1 and AD-PAP2), and the pBRIDGE vector with only the TT8 integration was used as a control (BD-TT8). Consistent with previous reports (Zimmermann et al., 2004), protein interactions between each of the three R2R3-MYBs and TT8 were observed for each of the three control experiments lacking TCP3 expression, with interaction strengths varying from 54.45 to 69.23 Miller units (Figure 4h). However, co-expression of TCP3 with TT8 and each of the three tested R2R3-MYB genes led to significantly enhanced reporter activity (93.62–107.51 Miller units; Figure 4h), suggesting that TCP3 influences the stability of the MBW complex and thereby enhances its transcriptional activation activity

ABC1K1 phosphorylates the tocopherol cyclase ... the mature kinase was produced in a cell-free rabbit reticulocyte lysate and used in kinase assays in the presence or absence of the purified VTE1 and [γ–33P]ATP. The reticulocyte lysate is highly concentrated, containing a large variety of proteins including kinases and their substrates. Therefore, it was used as a negative control in the absence of added substrates and ABC1K1 kinase. In this reaction several weak bands were observed in the background (Figure 7a, IVTmix). In phosphorylation reactions containing both the purified VTE1 and the ABC1K1 in vitro product, a significant incorporation of 33P (Figure 7a,b) was detected in a protein band at around 45 kDa that was absent from the control reactions (Figure 7a, IVTmix, ABC1K1 and VTE1). The mass of the phosphoprotein was similar to the predicted mass of VTE1 (43.5 kDa ... In parallel, western blotting was performed using αABC1K1 or αVTE1 antibodies.

• Protein-protein interaction

To identify additional interacting partners of AN3 besides the GRFs, AN3 was used as a bait for tandem affinity purification (TAP) followed by mass spectrometry analysis (TAP/MS), a powerful method to isolate and identify protein complexes (Van Leene et al., 2007; see Methods for experimental details). Both C- and N-terminal fusions of AN3 to the GS TAP tag were expressed under the control of the 35S promoter in Arabidopsis cell cultures. Eight independent TAP experiments resulted in the identification of 14 proteins, including AN3 (Table 2). Furthermore, TAP from 6-d-old Arabidopsis seedlings expressing C-terminal GS-tagged AN3 from the CDKA;1 promoter confirmed 11 out of the 14 proteins previously isolated from cell cultures ... detected in all experiments ...

We performed a co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) experiment to confirm the interaction between YID1/MED16 and MED25. Green fluorescence protein-tagged YID1/MED16 and myc-tagged MED25 were co-filtrated into the leaves of N. benthamiana, with total proteins extracted for the Co-IP analyses. The results showed that GFP-MED16 were co-immunoprecipitated with myc-MED25 (Figure 3d), suggesting that YID1/MED16 interacts with MED25 in vivo

• Protein-protein interaction

To confirm the interaction between YID1/MED16 and MED25 in vivo, we conducted a bimolecular fluorescent complementation (BiFC) analysis. We generated two constructs, nYFP-MED16 and cCFP-MED25, and co-transformed them into the leaf cells of Nicotiana benthamiana. Strong GFP signals were observed in the combination of nYFP-MED16 and cCFP-MED25 (Figure 3c), with no GFP signals being detected in the combinations of nYFP-MED16 with the empty vector cCFP or cCFP-MED25 with the empty vector nYFP

• Protein-protein interaction

To confirm the interactions between MED25 and EIN3/EIL1, we carried out a BiFC analysis. We co-transformed the nYFP-MED25 with cCFP-EIN3 or cCFP-EIL1 into the leaves of N. benthamiana. The obvious fluorescence in the nuclei was observed in both combinations of nYFP-MED25/cCFP-EIN3 and nYFP-MED25/cCFP-EIL1 (Figures 5b and S5), suggesting that MED25 interacts with EIN3/EIL1 in vivo. This BiFC result was supported by the firefly luciferase (LUC) complementation imaging (LCI) assay (Chen et al., 2008). The constructs MED25-nLuc and cLuc-EIN3/EIL1 were generated and co-infiltrated into N. benthamiana leaves. The LUC activity signal was detected between MED25-nLuc and cLuc-EIN3/EIL1

• Protein-protein interaction

To identify potential upstream MAP kinase kinase interaction partner(s) of AtMPK10, we employed the yeast two-hybrid interaction system. All 10 known Arabidopsis MKKs were fused to the GAL4 binding domain and confirmed to mediate no auto-activation of the β-galactosidase (β-GAL) reporter system. In the presence of AtMPK10, only AtMKK2 but not the other nine MAPKKs triggered activation of the two-hybrid system ( Figure 2B). This indicated that AtMPK10 interacts specifically with AtMKK2 and no other upstream Arabidopsis MKK

• Protein-protein interaction

In addition, we tested interaction between VCC and OPS by a bimolecular fluorescence complementation assay. We coexpressed VCC fused to the C-terminal portion of yellow fluorescent protein (YFP; CY-VCC) and OPS fused to the N terminus of YFP (NY-OPS) in Arabidopsis protoplasts (Fig. 8B). As negative controls, we coexpressed each of the fusion proteins with the corresponding empty vector and the two empty vectors together (Fig. 8B). Only the coexpression of CY-VCC and NY-OPS allowed for the reconstitution of YFP fluorescence above background levels (Fig. 8B), indicating that the two proteins are able to interact in Arabidopsis

• Protein-protein interaction

We cotransformed yeast cells with pBT3-C-OPS and pPR3-N-VCC, pBT3-C and pPR3-N VCC, or pBT3-C-OPS and pPR3-N and determined the number of transformant colonies grown on plates with selection medium for interaction (-Leu, Trp, His [-LWH] plus 15 mm 3-aminotriazole [3-AT]) and colonies grown on plates with section medium for plasmid transformation (-Leu, Trp [-LW]) to calculate a ratio (Fig. 8A). The coexpression of VCC as prey and OPS as bait resulted in 24% colony growth under selection for interaction, whereas we detected 0% and 9% colony growth when VCC and OPS, respectively, were coexpressed with empty vector OPS (Fig. 8A
