Description

In 2005, Plummer KA and Carothers JM reported the identification of small RNA modules selected in vitro to bind a surface-engineered protein, but only when the two macromolecules are bound to a synthetic bifunctional small molecule[1].


SELEX

In 2005, Plummer KA and colleagues used existing research to design the method required for the In vitro RNA selection. Starting from DNA containing a 60 nt region of random sequence, aptamers that bind specifically to TFKBP*3R-2G were selected after 7 rounds of selection and amplification. These aptamer, s23 and T1, can bind specifically to TFKBP*3R-2G were selected with high affinity[1].
Detailed information are accessible on SELEX page.

Ligand information

SELEX ligand

The FKBPs, or FK506 binding proteins, constitute a family of proteins that have prolyl isomerase activity and are related to the cyclophilins in function, though not in amino acid sequence. FKBPs have been identified in many eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans, and function as protein folding chaperones for proteins containing proline residues. Along with cyclophilin, FKBPs belong to the immunophilin family.-----From Wiki

Similar compound

We used the Dail server website to compare the structural similarities of ligand proteins, and chose the top 10 in terms of similarity for presentation. The Dali server is a network service for comparing protein structures in 3D. Dali compares them against those in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). Z-score is a standard score that is converted from an original score. The list of neighbours is sorted by Z-score. Similarities with a Z-score lower than 2 are spurious. RMSD(Root Mean Square Deviation) value is used to measure the degree to which atoms deviate from the alignment position.
