16 Affinity Chromatography Stationary phase consists of a biospecific ligand The sample (commonly a cell lysate) is applied and the target of interest is bound, while other biomolecules pass through Any remaining impurities are eliminated during the wash. The target of interest is eluted, usually by changing ph or using a sodium decyl sulfate (SDS) solution. Identifying the ligand-binding protein: -Protein is digested into peptide fragments -Mass spec can be used to identify peptides, comparision to databases -Western blots are also used -digested protein subjected to gel electrophoresis -antibody binds to protein of interest and this interaction is detected by chemiluminescence, fluorescence, or by using dyes Silver-stained western blot. Lane 1: cell lysate, Lanes 2-6: washes with lysis buffer, Lane 7: wash with elution buffer

18 X-Ray Crystallography The 1914 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Max von Laue (left) for his discovery that crystals diffract X-rays. ne year later, the Prize was awarded to Sir William Henry Bragg (center) and William Lawrence Bragg for analyzing crystal structures by X-ray d i f f r a c t i o n.

21 Act IV: Finale The dual mode of action of Bistramide A entails severing of filamentous actin and covalent protein modification Palacios, Wilcox, Woerly, Klubnick, Maryum, Struble

22 Binding to and Severing of Actin Amide, Spiroketal, and Enone are Required Bistramide A K d =7.0 nm GI 50 = 20.4 nm MALDI: covalent bond to actin K d = 43 nm GI 50 = 15.1 um MALDI: no covalent bond to actin K d =70 nm GI 50 = 87.1 nm MALDI: covalent bond to actin No binding or activity K d = 319 nm GI 50 = 11.2 um MALDI: no covalent bond to actin Rizvi, S.; Rock, R.; Kozmin, S.

23 Total Internal Reflectance Fluorescence Microscopy Based Upon Snell s Law of Reflectance i r n 1 n 2 Θ i = angle of incidence Θ r = angle of reflectance n 1 = higher refractive index medium n 2 = lower refractive index medium Snell s Law is given by: n 1 sinθ i = n 2 sinθ r n 1 n 2 c The angle at which TIR is achieved is termed the critical angle and is given by Θ c = arcsin(n 2 /n 1 ) The limited depth of the wave excites fewer fluorophores and leads to vastly superior signal to noise
