dc.description.abstract | This work describes the synthesis and use of the chelator lipid, nitrilotriacetic acid ditetradecylamine (NTA-DTDA). This lipid is readily dispersed in aqueous media, both alone and when mixed with carrier lipids like dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC). Fluorescence microscopic examination of membranes deposited from NTA-DTDA-containing liposomes shows that NTA-DTDA mixes uniformly with the carrier lipid, and does not phase separate. NTA-DTDA-membranes deposited onto the sensing surface of IAsys biosensor cuvettes show good stability, permitting use of the biosensor to study protein interactions. Hexahistidine-tagged proteins including recombinant forms of the extracellular regions of murine B7.1 (B7.1-6H) and of the human erythropoietin receptor (EPOR-6H) bind to NTA-DTDA-membranes; the stability of binding is dependent on both protein concentration, and density of NTA-DTDA. Kinetic measurements show that high stability of anchored proteins (t1/2 ∼ 10-20 h, apparent Kd ∼ 1 nM) can be achieved using membranes containing 25 mol% NTA-DTDA, but low levels of bound protein (< 200 arc seconds). The system is used to study the interaction of human EPO with the EPOR anchored onto NTA-DTDA-membranes. In addition to the biological applications reported recently, the results show that NTA-DTDA can be a useful reagent in the study of receptor-ligand interactions. | |
