ways to get around self activation in yeast 2 hybrid...

[Sai Iyer]

hail all,

	my construct is a strong self activator when i use it as a BD fusion to
fish interacting proteins from a cDNA library.  use of 3 amino triazole
is not a option since the activation is immediate (in context to 2
hybrid activation times) i.e in about 5 min.  so is there any other
possible option that i can employ to fish out interacting proteins from
a library using 2 hybrid?? i should mention that i dont have 
any candidate clones yet; so switching BDs and ADs is also not an option
(yet)...thanks
