Abstract

A method for selecting compounds capable of modulating protein-protein interactions is provided, in which two fusion proteins are prepared and allowed to interact with each other in the presence of test compounds. The interaction between the two fusion proteins leads to protein trans-splicing, producing an active reporter. Compounds that disrupt or enhance protein-protein interactions can be selected based on the presence or absence of the active reporter.
