G-quadruplexes are specifically recognized and distinguished by selected designed ankyrin repeat proteins
We introduce designed ankyrin repeat binding proteins (DARPins) as a novel class of highly specific and structure-selective DNA-binding proteins, which can be functionally expressed within all cells. Human telomere quadruplex was used as target to select specific binders with ribosome display. The selected DARPins discriminate the human telomere quadruplex against the telomeric duplex and other...
متن کاملIntracellular Kinase Inhibitors Selected from Combinatorial Libraries of Designed Ankyrin Repeat Proteins*□S
The specific intracellular inhibition of protein activity at the protein level allows the determination of protein function in the cellular context. We demonstrate here the use of designed ankyrin repeat proteins as tailor-made intracellular kinase inhibitors. The target was aminoglycoside phosphotransferase (3 )-IIIa (APH), which mediates resistance to aminoglycoside antibiotics in pathogenic ...
متن کاملSpecific targeting of human caspases using designed ankyrin repeat proteins.
Abstract Caspases play important roles in cell death, differentiation, and proliferation. Due to their high homology, especially of the active site, specific targeting of a particular caspase using substrate analogues is very difficult. Although commercially available small molecules based on peptides are lacking high specificity due to overlapping cleavage motives between different caspases, t...

The specific intracellular inhibition of protein activity at the protein level allows the determination of protein function in the cellular context. We demonstrate here the use of designed ankyrin repeat proteins as tailor-made intracellular kinase inhibitors. The target was aminoglycoside phosphotransferase (3')-IIIa (APH), which mediates resistance to aminoglycoside antibiotics in pathogenic ...
متن کاملDesigned ankyrin repeat proteins (DARPins) from research to therapy.
Designed ankyrin repeat proteins (DARPins) have been developed into a robust and versatile scaffold for binding proteins. High-affinity binders are routinely selected by ribosome display and phage display. DARPins have entered clinical trials and have found numerous uses in research, due to their high stability and robust folding, allowing many new molecular formats. We summarize the DARPin pro...
