Abstract
A 16-residue peptide, including the Tat49-57 sequence was labeled with a fluorescein and a tetramethylrhodamine at its N- and C-terminus, respectively. This double dye-labeled peptide was prepared as a tracer for high-throughput screening utilizing intramolecular fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). The binding of the competitor molecules for HIV-1 TAR RNA were monitored and dissociation constants of those molecule were determined by using this tracer. This novel screening system might be useful to discover the drug for HIV-1 TAR RNA. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
