Part:BBa_K4016003
LD3
This part interacts with Bcl-xl(Part:BBa_K4016002) through the induction of small molecule. Technically, we use A1331852 and A1155463 to induce the dimerization of this part and Bcl-xl. Functionally, we use this pair to fuse with other proteins respectively, bringing our system together in a controllable way.
Usage and Biology
LD3 is a human apolipoprotein E4 which shows to have a good bond with Bcl-XL. In the past report, two known small molecules, A1331852 and A1155463 , have been reported to bind to Bcl-XL at less than 10 pM and were shown by SPR and size-exclusion chromatogra-phy coupled to a multi-angle light scatter (SEC-MALS) to dissoci-ate Bcl-XL from LD3, with an apparent half-maximum inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 242 nM and 101 nM , respectively.
Fusing BcL-XL and LD3 fragment to the Trim21 and its targeting module, we can realize the Trim21-induced degradation on it’s target protein, and the BcL-XL-LD3 dissociation under A1331852 can induced the dissociation of Trim21 and its targeting module, so as to stop the degradation.
