Abstract
Truncated fragments of the small fragment of β-galactosidase are provided that have low affinity for the large fragment of β-galactosidase and provide for robust signals when two fusion proteins are complexed due to the binding of the proteins to which the β-galactosidase fragments are fused. The truncated fragments do not interfere with the complexing of the two proteins and allow for the two proteins to function and be responsive to candidate compounds that affect complex formation.
