Abstract: Provided herein are compositions and methods for identifying and detecting modulators of Ras protein conformational states through the use of second harmonic generation (SHG) technology. Also provided herein are methods for detecting a conformational changes in the three dimensional structure of a protein bound to a supported lipid bilayer.
Abstract: A system for making molecules, and proteins in particular, suitable for detection by a surface-selective nonlinear optical technique. A first use of the invention is for determining a protein's structure in real space and real time. A second use of the invention is to detect a protein or its activity (conformational change). A third use of the invention is for drug screening. A further aspect of the present invention is measuring probe tilt angle orientation in an oriented protein.
Abstract: A method is disclosed for classifying and distinguishing between type I and type II kinase inhibitors. The method involves the use of non-linear optical techniques, in particular second-harmonic generation (SHG) to identify conformational changes in kinase proteins obtained from known type I or type II inhibitors. The method further involves deducing the manner of binding of unknown inhibitors by comparison with the signal changes produced by known ligands. The method is also applied to comparing the conformational changes induced by the binding of generic and branded kinase inhibitor drugs to a target kinase.
Abstract: The present invention discloses, inter alia, methods for labeling a target protein with an SHG-active probe for detection by second harmonic or sum-frequency generation in order to identify agents which bind to an allosteric site on the target protein thereby altering its structural conformation.
