Abstract

Some membrane proteins must be clustered at target sites to efficiently perform their functions. PDZ domain-containing scaffold proteins bind to the tails of target membrane proteins and promote their localization and clustering on the cell surface. This chapter describes the experimental details of the clustering assay, using the interaction between potassium channels and PSD-95, an abundant PDZ domain protein in neuronal synapses, as a model.
