A bimolecular fluorescence complementation flow cytometry screen for membrane protein interactions

Abstract Interactions between membrane proteins within a cellular environment are crucial for all living cells. Robust methods to screen and analyse membrane protein complexes are essential to shed light on the molecular mechanism of membrane protein interactions. Most methods for detecting protein:...
