  • Title: Cyclin A probes by means of intermolecular sensitization of terbium-chelating peptides.
    Author: Pazos E, Torrecilla D, Vázquez López M, Castedo L, Mascareñas JL, Vidal A, Vázquez ME.
    Journal: J Am Chem Soc; 2008 Jul 30; 130(30):9652-3. PubMed ID: 18593119.
    Abstract:
    Intermolecular sensitization of lanthanide ions was effectively implemented in the development of fluorescent sensors targeting cyclin A. A chelating unit has been conjugated to peptides containing a known cyclin A binding motif (CBM). Upon interaction of the modified terbium-chelating peptides with the cyclin A substrate recruitment groove, the Tb3+ ion is placed in the vicinity of the Trp217 side chain, which results in efficient intermolecular terbium sensitization and specific long wavelength fluorescent emission from the metal center.
