Protein-protein interactions are integral to host-virus interactions and can contribute significantly to enzyme regulation by changing the localization of both host and viral enzymes within the cell, inducing conformational change relevant to enzyme activity or recruiting other additional proteins to form functional complexes. Identifying the interactors of active enzymes using an activity-based protein profiling probe has allowed us to characterize both normal enzyme activation mechanisms and the manner by which these mechanisms are hijacked and altered by the hepatitis C virus (HCV). Here, we report use of a novel activity-based probe, PIKBPyne, which labels phosphatidylinositol kinases (PIKs) in an activity-based manner, to investigate HCV-dependent changes in protein-protein interactions for PI4KB.
