Abstract:
:Useful methods of protein labeling via functional peptide tags have been developed in the field of proteome and chemical biology. New tag-probe pairs based on leucine zipper peptides for labeling target proteins are described. These consist of an α-helical probe peptide with an environmental-sensitive fluorescent dye and two antiparallel α-helical tag peptides, and may be crosslinked, from the Cys residue of the tag peptide to the N(α)-chloroacetyl group of the probe peptide. Binding of the probe peptide to the tag peptides results in movement of the fluorophore from a hydrophilic to a hydrophobic environment inside the leucine zipper structure, causing a dramatic fluorescent change, mediated by the binding of the two peptides. As a spacer between the N(α)-chloroacetyl group and the original probe sequence, a single Gly residue was the most suitable among 0-2 Gly residues. Crosslinking leads to superior fluorescence response, binding affinity, and chemical stability. These ZIP tag-probe pairs are useful for labeling and fluorescent imaging of proteins.
