The Orange and the Circus Tent
Ari Helenius | Oct 1, 2008 | 9 min read
The Orange and the Circus Tent Illustrations by Grady McFerrin What viruses teach us about the workings of mammalian cells. By Ari Helenius Article Extras 1 In those days, my interest was largely biochemical, particularly in the properties of membrane proteins, although I did also spend a lot of time trying to take the virus apart to its individual components, in an attempt to recreate the infectious particle from scratch. Needless to sa

The DupLEX-ATM system from OriGene Technologies is a LexA-based two-hybrid assay for the detection of protein-protein interactions in vivo (J. Gyuris et al., Cell 75:791-803, 1993). The LexA system is conceptually similar to the prototypical GAL4-based two-hybrid system, both of which are based on the bipartate nature of yeast transcriptional acti
