- Biomolecular Fluorescent
Complementation (BiFC).
- Fluorescent proteins were splited at loop
regions at DNA level, and coexpressed. A few fluorescent signals are found.
- Fluorescent signals are enhanced when
linked to interacting proteins pair.
- Used widely to study protein-protein
interaction.
- No documented reversible BiFC up until
now.
