“…We first identified several protein domains that have been reported to form oligomers of defined sizes in vitro ( Figures S1A and S1B ; Bolten et al, 2016 ; Boudko et al, 2009 ; Büttner et al, 2012 ; Chik et al, 2019 ; Drulyte et al, 2019 ; Huang et al, 2014 ; Lee et al, 1968 ; Li et al, 2019 ; Luo et al, 2001 ; Parsons et al, 2002 ; Santiago-Frangos et al, 2019 ; Sun et al, 2014 ; Thomson et al, 2014 ; Veesler et al, 2010 ). Each oligomerization domain was tagged with a fluorescent protein and expressed in C. elegans , and the size of oligomeric protein complexes from transgenic zygotes was examined using single-cell, single-molecule pull-down (sc-SiMPull) followed by photobleaching step counting ( Dickinson et al, 2017 ; Figure S1B ).…”
