Developing and refining tools to understand physical contacts between signaling proteins is crucial. This article describes a split luciferase complementation (SLC) method designed to discover inhibitors of protein-protein interaction. Different fusion proteins with split luciferase are constructed, expressed, and purified, and then assessed to determine the best pair that generates the strongest luminescence. SLC specificity and affinity are further confirmed. Step-by-step instructions are provided for performing these assays using the NS2B-NS3 interaction as an example. NS2B is an essential cofactor for flaviviral NS3 protease function. Advantages and disadvantages of these assays are further discussed. © 2019 by John Wiley &amp; Sons, Inc.</p><p><b>Basic Protocol 1</b>: Expression and purification of fusion proteins</p><p><b>Basic Protocol 2</b>: Analysis of prey/bait pairs by SLC-based NS2B-NS3 interaction assay</p><p><b>Support Protocol 1</b>: Interaction specificity assay</p><p><b>Support Protocol 2</b>: Competition binding assay: Dose-response inhibition using cold prey or bait</p><p><b>Support Protocol 3</b>: Competition binding assay: Inhibition by MBP-NS3 versus irrelevant MBP tag</p><p><b>Support Protocol 4</b>: SLC-based NS2B-NS3 interaction assay using NS2B mutations known to disrupt NS2B-NS3 interactions</p>","PeriodicalId":72743,"journal":{"name":"Current protocols in toxicology","volume":"82 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1002/cptx.90","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43425236","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nowadays, there are several serum-free formulations available, including fully animal derived–free and chemically defined media, and different adaptation techniques. This article focuses on the gradual adaptation of a mammalian suspension cell culture to a chemically defined medium. The first step is to transfer the cells cultured in medium supplemented with fetal bovine serum (FBS) to a chemically defined medium of your choice, containing the same amount of FBS. The next steps consist of progressively reducing the amount of FBS, while monitoring cell growth and viability up to the complete elimination of FBS. This protocol has been successfully used to adapt THP-1 cells to a chemically defined medium with similar maximum specific growth rate as those cultured with FBS. © 2019 by John Wiley &amp; Sons, Inc.</p><p><b>Basic Protocol</b>: Gradual adaptation to chemically defined medium</p><p><b>Alternate Protocol</b>: Direct adaptation to chemically defined medium</p><p><b>Support Protocol 1</b>: Determining maximum specific growth rate of a cell culture</p><p><b>Support Protocol 2</b>: Cell freezing and thawing</p>","PeriodicalId":72743,"journal":{"name":"Current protocols in toxicology","volume":"82 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1002/cptx.88","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45970193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
