In vitro evolution of an HIV integrase binding protein from a library of C-terminal domain γS-crystallin variants.

چکیده
A protein without natural binding functions was engineered to bind HIV-1 integrase. Phage display selections applied a library of variants based on the C-terminal domain of the eye lens protein human γS-crystallin. Multiple loop regions were altered to encode libraries with ≈3.6 × 10(11) different variants. A crystallin variant, termed integrase binding protein-10 (IBP-10), inhibits integrase catalysis with nanomolar K(i) values. IBP-10 interacts with the integrase C-terminal domain and inhibits integrase substrate affinity. This allosteric mechanism allows IBP-10 to inhibit drug-resistant integrase variants. The results demonstrate the applicability of the crystallin scaffold for the discovery of binding partners and enzyme inhibitors.

Formation of a stable complex between the human immunodeficiency virus integrase protein and viral DNA.
The integrase (IN) protein of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) mediates two distinct reactions: (i) specific removal of two nucleotides from the 3' ends of the viral DNA and (ii) integration of the viral DNA into target DNA. Although IN discriminates between specific (viral) DNA and nonspecific DNA in physical in vitro assays, a sequence-specific DNA-binding domain could not be identified...
متن کاملCharacterization of the minimal DNA-binding domain of the HIV integrase protein.
The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) integrase (IN) protein mediates an essential step in the retroviral lifecycle, the integration of viral DNA into human DNA. A DNA-binding domain of HIV IN has previously been identified in the C-terminal part of the protein. We tested truncated proteins of the C-terminal region of HIV-1 IN for DNA binding activity in two different assays: UV-crosslinking a...

Rous sarcoma virus (RSV), like all retroviruses, encodes an integrase protein that is responsible for covalently joining the reverse-transcribed viral DNA to host DNA. We have probed the organization of functions within RSV integrase by constructing mutant derivatives and assaying their activities in vitro. We find that deletion derivatives lacking the amino-terminal 53 amino acids, which conta...
متن کاملCharacterization of a DNA binding domain in the C-terminus of HIV-1 integrase by deletion mutagenesis.
The integrase (IN) protein of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) catalyzes site-specific cleavage of 2 bases from the viral long terminal repeat (LTR) sequence yet it binds DNA with little DNA sequence specificity. We have previously demonstrated that the C-terminal half of IN (amino acids 154-288) possesses a DNA binding domain. In order to further characterize this region, a series o...
متن کاملMapping the epitope of an inhibitory monoclonal antibody to the C-terminal DNA-binding domain of HIV-1 integrase.
Integrase (IN) catalyzes the insertion of retroviral DNA into chromosomal DNA of a host cell and is one of three virus-encoded enzymes that are required for replication. A library of monoclonal antibodies against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) IN was raised and characterized in our laboratory. Among them, monoclonal antibody (mAb) 33 and mAb32 compete for binding to the C-terminal ...
