An affinity reagent for the recognition of pyrophosphorylated peptides.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A resin-bound dinuclear zinc(II) complex for the selective capture of pyrophosphopeptides is reported. The metal complex binds diphosphate esters over other anionic groups, such as monophosphate esters, sulfate esters, and carboxylic acids, with high specificity. Immobilization of the compound provided a reagent capable of binding and retaining nanomolar quantities of pyrophosphopeptide in the presence of cell lysate. The high affinity and specificity of the reagent makes it an attractive tool for the study of in vivo pyrophosphorylation.

Engineered bromodomains to explore the acetylproteome.
MS-based analysis of the acetylproteome has highlighted a role for acetylation in a wide array of biological processes including gene regulation, metabolism, and cellular signaling. To date, anti-acetyllysine antibodies have been used as the predominant affinity reagent for enrichment of acetyllysine-containing peptides and proteins; however, these reagents suffer from high nonspecific binding ...
متن کاملIdentification of Aptamer-Binding Sites in Hepatitis C Virus Envelope Glycoprotein E2
Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) encodes two envelope glycoproteins, E1 and E2. Our previous work selected a specific aptamer ZE2, which could bind to E2 with high affinity, with a great potential for developing new molecular probes as an early diagnostic reagents or therapeutic drugs targeting HCV. In this study, the binding sites between E2 and aptamer ZE2 were further explored. E2 was truncated to 15...

A new biological active hexapeptide of C-terminal of nocistatin, contains Glu-Gln-Lys-Gln-Leu-Gln sequence was synthesized according to solid phase peptide synthesis on the surface of 2-chloro tritylchloride resin and using fmoc-protected amino acids in the presence of TBTU (O-(Benzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl uranium tetrafluoroborate) as a coupling reagent. Then, amidation of the C-te...
متن کاملAffinity purification of synthetic peptides.
A general strategy and a specific tactic for affinity purification of polypeptides synthesized on solid supports are desbribed and demonstrated. The desired peptide chains were distinguished from terminated peptide chains before removal from the support by attachment of an affinity reagnet (cysteinyl-methionine) bearing an affinity group (thiol) and a binding group (carboxylic acid). After clea...
متن کاملDesigning a new tetrapeptide to inhibit the BIR3 domain of the XIAP protein via molecular dynamics simulations
The XIAP protein is a member of apoptosis proteins family. The XIAP protein plays a central role in the inhibition of apoptosis and consists of three Baculoviral IAP Repeat domains. The BIR3 domain binds directly to the N-terminal of caspase-9 and therefore it inhibits apoptosis. N-terminal tetrapeptide region of SMAC protein can bind to BIR3, inhibit it and subsequently induce apoptosis. In th...
