Abstract
Mapping the network of proteins provides a powerful means to investigate the function of disease genes and to unravel the molecular basis of phenotypes. We present an automated informatics-aided and bioluminescence resonance energy transfer-based approach (iBRET) enabling high-confidence detection of protein-protein interactions in living mammalian cells. A screen of the ABCD1 protein, which is affected in X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD), against an organelle library of peroxisomal proteins demonstrated applicability of iBRET for large-scale experiments. We identified novel protein-protein interactions for ABCD1 (with ALDH3A2, DAO, ECI2, FAR1, PEX10, PEX13, PEX5, PXMP2, and PIPOX), mapped its position within the peroxisomal proteinprotein interaction network, and determined that pathogenic missense variants in ABCD1 alter the interaction with selected binding partners. These findings provide mechanistic insights into pathophysiology of X-ALD and may foster the identification of new disease modifiers.
