Engineering Peptide Inhibitors To Overcome PDZ Binding Promiscuity

Design of inhibitors: PDZ domains are conserved modules regulating the localization and activity of effector proteins. An integrated approach has been developed that uses peptide‐array screening technologies and fluorescence polarization measurements to analyze five promiscuous PDZ domains. By combi...

Description
Summary:Design of inhibitors: PDZ domains are conserved modules regulating the localization and activity of effector proteins. An integrated approach has been developed that uses peptide‐array screening technologies and fluorescence polarization measurements to analyze five promiscuous PDZ domains. By combining both methods, a highly specific inhibitor (iCAL3610=ANSRWPTSII) for one of the five PDZ domains was designed.
