Weak interaction between inhibition peptides and a soluble receptor of fusion protein in the liquid phase.

چکیده
Fluorescence polarization analysis (FPA) of a liquid-phase method was carried out with a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchored membrane receptor bone marrow stromal cell antigen 1 (BST-1, CD157) as a model receptor for medical screening. A soluble receptor, BST1-Fc, was prepared by fusing the extracellular domain of BST-1 and the Fc region of human immunoglobulin G (IgG). The binding curves of BST1-Fc with a fluorescently labeled ligand peptide, or its three derivatives, were developed using ordinary FPA in the liquid phase. The obtained dissociation constants (Kd) were comparable with those reported as measured with SPR of a solid-phase method, except for one derivative peptide with Kd larger than 7000 nM. Competitive FPA was carried out, and it was demonstrated that a very weak interaction, which would be difficult to detect with SPR or other solid-phase methods, could be analyzed with both ordinary and competitive FPA.

Coronaviruses, pathogens with a zoonotic potential, are positive sense single-stranded RNA viruses. SARS Coronavirus-2, the cause of Covid-19 infection, is from the betacoronavirinea subfamily, which has close genomic and proteomic similarity to SARS Coronavirus-1(1). Given the genomic proximity of these two viruses, studies on SARS Coronavirus-1 can be used to control or detect SARS Coronaviru...

Selection of a system for successful recombinant protein production is important. The aim of this study wasto produce high levels of human interleukin-2 (hIL-2) in soluble form. To this end, the pET32a vector inEscherichia coli BL21 (DE3) was used as an expression system, since it was previously used for the productionof mouse IL-2 in soluble form. The results indicated that c...
