Abstract
Protein-interaction mapping based on the tandem affinity purification (TAP) approach has been successfully established for several systems, such as yeast and mammalian cells. However, relatively few protein complex purifications have been reported for plants. Here, we highlight solutions for the pitfalls and propose a major breakthrough in the quest for a better TAP tag in plants.
