“Protein Complexes”  

Protein Complex

  Protein Complex
  Three conditions must be fulfilled for a protein to be considered a member of a given protein complex:

• the protein should, first, colocalize (the core components) with and,
• second, co-immunoprecipitate with members of the complex (the transient components) and,
• third, the protein should directly interact with at least one other member of the complex.

  Examples of some protein complexes include:

• polarity protein complexes
  • scribble complex
  • crumbs complex
• multiprotein complexes
• adaptor protein complexes
