In #NextGenerationProteomics news, today we cover the basics of Proximity ligation assay (PLA) technology, also known as proximity barcoding assay technology, which is a method for detecting protein-protein interactions in cells or tissues.
The assay is based on the principle of ligating two probes (such as antibodies) that are in close proximity to each other, typically within a few nanometers. The ligation reaction produces a circular DNA molecule that is amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and
can be detected by sequencing or by fluorescence-based microarray readouts. The technology allows for the quantification of specific protein interactions in complex biological samples and can be used for a variety of applications, including drug discovery,
