Abstract
Broad-scale protein–protein interaction mapping is a major challenge given the cost, time, and sensitivity constraints of existing technologies. Here, we present a massively multiplexed yeast two-hybrid method, CrY2H-seq, which uses a Cre recombinase interaction reporter to intracellularly fuse the coding sequences of two interacting proteins and next-generation DNA sequencing to identify these interactions en masse. We applied CrY2H-seq to investigate sparsely annotated Arabidopsis thaliana transcription factors interactions. By performing ten independent screens testing a total of 36 million binary interaction combinations, and uncovering a network of 8,577 interactions among 1,453 transcription factors, we demonstrate CrY2H-seq′s improved screening capacity, efficiency, and sensitivity over those of existing technologies. The deep-coverage network resource we call AtTFIN-1 recapitulates one-third of previously reported interactions derived from diverse methods, expands the number of known plant transcription factor interactions by three-fold, and reveals previously unknown family-specific interaction module associations with plant reproductive development, root architecture, and circadian coordination.

Supplementary Figure 4 Determining optimal sequencing coverage and basal fragment threshold.
(a) Only PPIs (protein-protein interactions) with 3 or more fragments in the 20 million read depth dataset showed the expected 4-fold or greater increase in coverage in the 80 million read depth dataset, while PPIs with only one or two fragments in the 20 million read depth dataset were frequently not even detected (orange) at the 80 million read depth. (b) At 80 million read depth, the majority of new PPIs that were not detected at the 20 million read depth had less than 10 fragments, with over 90% of PPIs showing less than 3 fragments.
Supplementary Figure 5 The CrY2H-seq analysis pipeline.
(a) Reads are first mapped to a custom genome composed of Arabidopsis TF ORF sequences, S. cerevisiae genome, Gal4 AD and Gal4 DB domain sequences amplified by AD and DB primers (primer region), and empty plasmid sequence (not pictured). Overall alignments were as follows: 74.8% Arabidopsis, 16% primer region, 4.8% not aligned, 4.2% Yeast, and 0.2% empty plasmid. (b) Paired-end high-quality mapped reads are paired by read IDs and clonal fragments are removed. (c) Fragments are filtered for DNA strandedness to remove reads mapping to only one ORF. Examples of one protein interaction fragment (blue, green, and orange fragment) and a fragment mapping to only one ORF (purple fragment) are shown. Fragments are filtered by fragment size based on a 300bp size range (~220 bp - ~520 bp). (d) Fraction of fragments remaining after each filtering step in the analysis pipeline. Average and standard deviation were calculated from the ten replicate screen datasets. (e) Fragments for unique ORF combinations are totaled only if read1 maps to a different ORF than read2. Paired-end reads mapping to three example protein interaction PCR products are shown. (f) A basal fragment cutoff is applied for reasons described in Supplementary Figure 4 and Online Methods. This removes any interaction product with less than 3 fragments from the data, as shown by the carry-over of interaction products showing more than 2 fragments (peach/lime and blue/green interaction product) and absence of the blue/red interaction product which had only 2 fragments. (g) Datasets from each screen are normalized by calculating the median total number of interaction fragments and calculating a scale factor based on the fold difference between the screen and median total interaction fragments. Unique interaction fragments are then multiplied by the calculated scale factor and rounded down to the nearest integer. An example is shown for screen 8. See Online Methods for more details.

(a) Fraction of unique TF interactions that were detected out of all TF interactions screened in CrY2H-seq and in HT-Y2H. 8,577 TF interactions were detected among the 1,880,232 unique TF interactions that were screened in CrY2H-seq, while 229 TF interactions were detected among the 270,480 unique TF interactions that were screened in HT-Y2H. (b) Coverage of commonly screened TF interactions between AtTFIN-1 and AI-1. (c) Fraction of 114 commonly screened LCI pairs recalled by CrY2H-seq and by HT-Y2H; CrY2H-seq recalled 38 interactions while HT-Y2H recalled 14.

Supplementary Figure 14 CrY2H-seq shows reduced screening costs and time compared to traditional Y2H and BFG-Y2H methods.
(a) Screening cost estimates for two replicate screens of 1000 × 1000 proteins. (b) Screening cost estimates for one screen of 30,000 × 30,000 proteins. Costs for sequencing of Y2H positive clones have been omitted here because we were unable to find a report of the number of reads required per screen size for traditional Y2H or for BFG-Y2H. (c) Screening time estimates. It should be noted that these cost estimates do not take into account preliminary cloning steps as any cloning strategy could be applied to move ORFs into expression plasmids. It should also be noted that this cost comparison is conservative as the cost difference would be larger from traditional Y2H had labor and pipetting costs been accounted for.
Supplementary Figure 15 Determining bait and prey orientation of interacting proteins.
(a) Bait and prey orientations can be derived from fragments mapping to interactions that contain at least 15 base pairs of Lox77 sequence. Blue and green squares outline the lox sequence parts that reveal prey and bait identity, respectively. The black line exemplifies an orientation-revealing fragment. Amplicon, example fragment, and reads are not drawn to scale; read 1 and read 2 are each a total of 100bp. (b) Overview of fragments mapping to protein-protein interactions (PPIs).
