Summary Introduction

To analyze:

Determine the approach by which two-hybrid method facilitate the discovery of protein- protein interactions. Explain the reason for the false-positive results (where the proteins encoded by two clones interact in the two-hybrid system but do not interact in the organism in which they naturally exist) obtained sometimes. Also the reason for the occurrence of false – negative (where the two proteins interact in vivo but fail to interact in the two-hybrid system) results.

Introduction:

There are many high-throughput technologies developed for proteomic analyses, including techniques to study protein expression, modification, and protein-protein interactions. The study of protein- protein interactions show whether and how different proteins interact, and provide information on the functioning of biological systems by identifying sets of proteins that form complexes. Two hybrid methods are successfully applied to many model systems, providing information on their protein interaction networks.

Let’s suppose you make a transposon library of the cellulose-secreting bacterium Komagataeibacter xylinus, with the goal of finding mutants that produce higher than normal amounts of cellulose, which would be useful industrially. However, despite your best efforts you are unable to isolate any transposon mutants that make more cellulose than the wild-type strain.Why might this have failed? List as many reasons as you can think of.
With the many high throughput experiments that are used in biomedical research, how are some ways to integrate those datasets using systems biology? For example, if you had a microarray dataset that annotated gene expression levels and a proteomics dataset that identifed protein interactions, how could you jointly use both datasets to identify markers for a disease? Explain each step.
Should the exposome field focus exclusively on measuring chemicals derived from exogebeous sources or should the field also evaluate the chemicals generated and processed from endogeneous sources?   If a study of the human genome gave rise to genomics, does the human exposome give rise to a new field of exposomics?
