Analysis of synphilin-1 and synuclein interactions by yeast two-hybrid beta-galactosidase liquid assay.

Abstract excerpt

Synphilin-1 interacts with alpha-synuclein, which has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). By examination of their interactions quantitatively, with the use of the yeast two-hybrid beta-galactosidase assay, we find that the synuclein amino acid (aa) 1-65 region is sufficient for an interaction. A central domain of synphilin-1, aa 349-555, is both necessary and sufficient for an...
