The majority of biological processes are controlled and regulated by an intricate network of thousands of interacting proteins. Identifying and understanding the key components of these protein networks, especially those that play a critical role in disease, is a challenge that promises to dramatically alter our current approach to healthcare. To facilitate this process, we have developed a method for the rapid construction of a chromosomally integrated, bacterial reverse two-hybrid system…

Alternative Experimental Models for Studying Influenza Proteins, Host–Virus Interactions and Anti-Influenza Drugs
TLDR
It is felt that these models, including yeast, Drosophila, zebrafish and primary human tissue cultures, are still under-utilized and the unique potential each model has for better comprehending virus–host interactions and viral protein function is highlighted.
A bidirectional fluorescent two-hybrid system for monitoring protein-protein interactions.
TLDR
A bidirectional fluorescence-based bacterial two-hybrid system that enables both the association and dissociation of a given protein-protein interaction to be monitored and its compatibility with FACS screening is demonstrated.
Development of a fluorescent three‐hybrid system for the identification of protein‐protein associators
TLDR
A bacterial three‐hybrid system, with dual life/death and fluorescent reporters, which detects protein association and is compatible with high‐throughput screening and for ranking large in vivo libraries for compounds that upregulate the association of any two given proteins.
Diversity in Genetic In Vivo Methods for Protein-Protein Interaction Studies: from the Yeast Two-Hybrid System to the Mammalian Split-Luciferase System
TLDR
An exhaustive overview of the genetic approaches available to study in vivo binary protein interactions, based on two-hybrid and protein fragment complementation assays, and applications of these technologies are discussed.
Influenza A/Hong Kong/156/1997(H5N1) virus NS1 gene mutations F103L and M106I both increase IFN antagonism, virulence and cytoplasmic localization but differ in binding to RIG-I and CPSF30
TLDR
The F103L and M106I mutations in the H5N1 NS1 protein each increased IFN antagonism and mediated interstitial pneumonia in mice that was associated with increased cytoplasmic localization and altered host factor binding.
Traceless Production of Cyclic Peptide Libraries in E. coli.
TLDR
The use of engineered Npu inteins in SICLOPPS showed no toxicity to E. coli, demonstrating their potential for the production of cyclic peptide libraries for use in a variety of high-throughput screens.

The multifunctional NS1 protein of influenza A viruses.
TLDR
The basic biochemistry of NS1 is summarized, in particular its synthesis, structure, and intracellular localization, and the various roles NS1 has in regulating viral replication mechanisms, host innate/adaptive immune responses, and cellular signalling pathways are discussed.
Inhibition of HIV budding by a genetically selected cyclic peptide targeting the Gag-TSG101 interaction.
TLDR
The use of a bacterial reverse two-hybrid system is used to identify cyclic peptides that interfere with the Gag-TSG101 interaction and the finding that a five amino acid peptide discovered by this approach can disrupt the interaction and consequently inhibit HIV egress is reported.

TLDR
This article highlights the recent progress in the understanding of key interactions of influenza viruses with the type I IFN defense, which are central to viral virulence.
Influenza A virus NS1 targets the ubiquitin ligase TRIM25 to evade recognition by the host viral RNA sensor RIG-I.
Transfectant Influenza A Viruses with Long Deletions in the NS1 Protein Grow Efficiently in Vero Cells
TLDR
A reverse genetics system for the nonstructural (NS) gene segment of influenza A virus is established based on the use of the temperature-sensitive (ts) reassortant virus 25A-1, which allows the rescue of transfectant viruses with large deletions of the C-terminal part of the NS1 protein.
Regulation of innate antiviral defenses through a shared repressor domain in RIG-I and LGP2
TLDR
RIG-I is a cytoplasmic sensor of HCV and is governed by RD interactions that are shared with LGP2 as an on/off switch controlling innate defenses, which may have therapeutic implications for immune regulation.
Essential Role of the N-terminal Domain in the Regulation of RIG-I ATPase Activity*
TLDR
Overall, these results show a direct correlation between RNA binding and ATPase enzymatic function leading to signal transduction and suggest that a tight control of ATPase activity by the CARDs prevents RIG-I signaling in the absence of viral RNA.
Functional Replacement of the Carboxy-Terminal Two-Thirds of the Influenza A Virus NS1 Protein with Short Heterologous Dimerization Domains
TLDR
The results suggest that the main biological function of the carboxy-terminal region of the NS1 protein of influenza A virus is the enhancement of its IFN antagonist properties by stabilizing the NS 1 dimeric structure.
Inhibition of Retinoic Acid-Inducible Gene I-Mediated Induction of Beta Interferon by the NS1 Protein of Influenza A Virus
TLDR
The results indicate that, in addition to sequestering dsRNA, the NS1 of influenza A virus binds to RIG-I and inhibits downstream activation of IRF-3, preventing the transcriptional induction of IFN-β.
