Bait proteins were bound to either Pierce® Nickel coated plates (15242; Thermo scientific) or ANTI-FLAG® high sensitivity, M2 coated plates (P2983, Sigma) by 2 h incubation at 37 °C. Unbound protein was removed by repeated washing and non-specific binding sites were blocked with 0.1–1% BSA/TBS. Bait-coated plates were incubated with prey proteins at 4 °C overnight. Binding of the prey protein to the coated plate was detected using primary antibodies raised against the prey proteins, combined with species matched HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies. Plates were read at 450 nm after HRP chromogenic substrate reaction using the TMB-peroxidase substrate system (KPL, Gaithersburg, MD, USA) according to manufacturer’s protocol. List of proteins and primary antibodies used can be found in Tables S2 and S3.
