Fluorescence-based, high-throughput DNA polymerase assay.
The commonly used DNA polymerase assay is based on the detection of incorporated radiolabeled nucleotides in a DNA elongation reaction. It is laborious, radioactive, and can be highly variable. Here we report a nonradioactive fluorescence-based assay. The method consists of Cydye-labeled nucleotides, biotinylated primer, and a streptavidin-coated microplate. The assay is found to have sensitivi...
متن کاملHigh-throughput fluorescence assay for membrane-protein interaction.
Membrane-protein interaction plays key roles in a wide variety of biological processes. Although various methods have been employed to measure membrane binding of soluble proteins, a robust high-throughput assay that is universally applicable to all proteins is lacking at present. Here we report a new fluorescence quenching assay utilizing enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP)-fusion prote...
متن کاملFluorescence detection-based functional assay for high-throughput screening for MraY.
We have developed a novel assay specific to MraY, which catalyzes the first membrane step in the biosynthesis of bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan. This was accomplished by using UDP-MurNAc-N(epsilon)-dansylpentapeptide, a fluorescent derivative of the MraY nucleotide substrate, and a partially purified preparation of MraY solubilized from membranes of an Escherichia coli overproducing strain. ...
متن کاملA High-Throughput Fluorescence-Based Assay System for Appetite-Regulating Gene and Drug Screening
The increasing number of people suffering from metabolic syndrome and obesity is becoming a serious problem not only in developed countries, but also in developing countries. However, there are few agents currently approved for the treatment of obesity. Those that are available are mainly appetite suppressants and gastrointestinal fat blockers. We have developed a simple and rapid method for th...
متن کاملA rapid, inexpensive yeast-based dual-fluorescence assay of programmed—1 ribosomal frameshifting for high-throughput screening
Programmed -1 ribosomal frameshifting (-1 PRF) is a mechanism that directs elongating ribosomes to shift-reading frame by 1 base in the 5' direction that is utilized by many RNA viruses. Importantly, rates of -1 PRF are fine-tuned by viruses, including Retroviruses, Coronaviruses, Flavivriuses and in two endogenous viruses of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, to deliver the correct ratios of ...
