Protein Interactions Reveal Functions of Novel Isoforms in Disease

”While working with a cell regulator involved in heart disease we discovered an alternative splicing variant with an intriguing new domain. With Next Interactions, we mapped candidate interactors for this domain, allowing us to reach pivotal conclusions for our project. Great customer care and turnaround!”

Systematic exploration of  Biological Pathways

“My lab focuses on the transcriptional regulation of the Tillering pathway in Zea mays. Next Interactions did a great job constructing the cDNA library, optimizing our baits, and providing us with high quality data, We obtained a trove of valuable interactions, including a core set of 30 highly connected proteins; these are enough leads to keep us busy, and more than we expected from our previous experiences. Indeed, Next Interaction’s Y2H combined with deep sequencing proves to be the superior approach.”

Differential Protein-Protein Interaction Profiles for Inherited Diseases

”We suspected that mutations in a gene implicated in cochlear function affected its protein-protein interaction profile. We had no possibility of using mass spectrometry for this special type of cells. Instead we used NGS-Y2H to screen a specific library with mutant and wild-type variants.  We found key differences that were crucial to our current research.”

Large Scale Screening for Interactome Mapping

We are working on pathogenesis and disease resistance mechanisms in Brassica crops. With Next Interactions’ screening technology we can get a complete overview how pathogen effector proteins interact with plant defense mechanisms, and how plants can eventually achieve resistance. This is the best technique with such capability we can find on the market.”

Identification of Targets for Tumor Suppression and Modulation of Cancer Progression

“We study the tumor suppressor FBXW7, a ubiquitin-ligase that targets proteins for degradation and is regulated by other proteins. NGS-based interaction screens reliably identified key targets and regulators, which were confirmed in stringent co-immunoprecipitation assays.”
