The specificity of the BRET assay in detecting the interaction of BST-2 and HIV-1 Vpu. (a) The specificity of BRET signals between BST-2 and Vpu. HEK293T cells were transfected with plasmid DNA and seeded into 96-well plates, and then the BRET ratio was measured by using a Pekin Elmer reader. (b) The saturation curve of the BRET assay. HEK293T cells were cotransfected with constant amount of R-B plasmid and increasing dose of Vm-E or E-CD209 plasmid. The BRET ratio was detected by using a Pekin Elmer reader. Western blot analysis of the cellular lysates was shown. (c) The competition curve of the BRET assay. HEK293T cells were cotransfected with constant amount of R-B plasmid and Vm-E and increasing dose of Vm or CD209 plasmid, and the BRET ratio was detected by using a Pekin Elmer reader. Western blot analysis of the cellular lysates was shown.
