Coimmunoprecipitation and proteomic analyses

Methods Mol Biol. 2008:439:291-308. doi: 10.1007/978-1-59745-188-8_20.

Abstract

Defining protein-protein interaction networks is a major goal of proteomics. Here, we present a protocol for coimmunoprecipitation, a technique suitable for the isolation of whole protein complexes in vivo and their subsequent identification by either immunoblotting or mass spectrometric sequencing combined to database search.
