| Notes |
E.coli BirA is a well-characterized multifunctional protein that either catalyses the transfer of biotin to carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP), a acetyl-CoA carboxylase subunit or, alternatively, binds to the biotin operator resulting in transcriptional repression of the biotin operon (1). A mutant BirA (R118G) shows loss of DNA binding ability and promiscuity of substrate biotinylation (2, 3). These properties of BirA R118G were used to develop an in vivo technique that identifies proteins in a proximity- dependent manner (BioID). In the BioID method, a protein of interest is tagged with BirA R118G and expressed in live cells. Addition of the biotin in the media results in biotinylation of proteins in vicinity of the bait. The biotinylated proteins can then be affinity purified with biotin binding proteins such as strepavidin or avidin even under harsh denaturing conditions and subsequently identified by mass spectrometry or immunoblot analysis (4).
