Methods to study 14-3-3/partner protein complexes. (a) Schematic representation of multi-domain phosphorylated protein (green) binding to 14-3-3 (gray), raising the question of structure and mechanism of action. (b) First-line techniques to look at mechanism and structure are cryo-EM and x-ray crystallography. Example of crystal structure of 14-3-3 (gray) with BRAF (red) (PDB: 6U2H). (c) Alternatives to study PPIs in the absence of structural data including fluorophore labeling of individual domains as used by Joshi et al. To see this figure in color, go online.
