Abstract
Microscopy-based GSH bead protein-protein interaction assay
Wash pre-blocked glutathione sepharose beads (GE Healthcare) with the reaction buffer (25 mM HEPES at pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM MgCl2 and 1 mM TCEP) three times.
Make a mixture of 1 μM purified GST tagged protein and 500 nM purified fluorescent protein in total 70 μl
Incubate at TemperatureRoom temperature for Duration00:30:00 , samples were mixed with additional 100 μL reaction buffer.

30m
Transferred to the observation chamber for imaging.
Acquire images on a Nikon A1 confocal microscope with a Nikon Plan APO VC 20x/0.75 NA UV Microscope Objective.
