A fluorescent probe designed for studying protein conformational change.
The usefulness of fluorescence in studying protein motions derives from its sensitivity, kinetic resolution, and compatibility with both live cells and physiological assays. Recent advances in microscopy and membrane protein purification have permitted the observation of fluorescence changes that accompany the functional transitions of complex eukaryotic membrane proteins. These techniques rely...
متن کاملAurovertin, a fluorescent probe of conformational change in beef heart mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase.
Formation of a complex between aurovertin and soluble mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase (FJ was accompanied by a 55-fold enhancement of fluorescence, an increase in the polarization of fluorescence from 0.278 for the free form to 0.375 for the bound form and a decrease in absorption at 366 nm. The fluorescence intensity of the complex was partially quenched by addition of ATP or Mg++ and e...
متن کاملP-11: DHR123: A Suitable Fluorescent Mitochondrial Probe for Assessment of H2O2 in Human Spermatozoa
Background: The objective of present study was to assess potential of DHR123 (dihydrorhodamine 123) fluorescent probe for measurement of H2O2 produced by human spermatozoa and comparing the results with DCFH-DA (2', 7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate). Materials and Methods: Fluorescent intensity and percentage R123 and DCF positive sperm measured by flow cytometry. The suitable ...
متن کاملA subnanomolar fluorescent probe for protein kinase CK2 interaction studies.
Up-regulation of an acidophilic protein kinase, CK2, has been established in several types of cancer. This cognition has made CK2 an important target for drug development for cancer chemotherapy. The characterization of potential drug candidates, determination of the structure and clarification of the functions of CK2 could be facilitated by the application of small-molecule fluorescent probes ...
متن کاملA fluorescent probe for ecstasy.
A nanostructure formed by the insertion in silica nanoparticles of a pyrene-derivatized cavitand, which is able to specifically recognize ecstasy in water, is presented. The absence of effects from interferents and an efficient electron transfer process occurring after complexation of ecstasy, makes this system an efficient fluorescent probe for this popular drug.
