Book Chapter Description

Protein-protein interactions (PPI) play central roles in biological processes, motivating us to understand the structural basis underlying affinity and specificity. In this chapter, we focus on biochemical and computational design strategies of assessing and detecting PPIs of β-barrel outer membrane proteins (OMPs). A few case studies are presented highlighting biochemical techniques used to dissect the energetics of oligomerization and determine amino acids forming the key interactions of the PPI sites. Current computational strategies for detecting/predicting PPIs are introduced, and examples of computational and rational engineering strategies applied to OMPs are presented. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.
