Protocol to measure and analyze protein interactions in mammalian cells using bioluminescence resonance energy transfer.

ABSTRACT: Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) allows to quantitate protein interactions in intact cells. Here, we present a protocol for measuring BRET due to transient interactions of oncogenic K-RasG12V in plasma membrane nanoclusters of HEK293-EBNA cells. We describe steps for seeding, transfecting, and replating cells. We then detail procedures for their preparation for BRET measurements on a CLARIOstar microplate reader and detailed data analysis. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Steffen et al.¹.
