  • Methods using O-alkylguanine-DNA alkytransferase
    Patent number: 8367361
    Abstract: A method of using O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT) is disclosed for transferring a label from a substrate to a fusion protein comprising the AGT. This allows the detection and/or manipulating of the fusion protein, both in vitro and in vivo, by attaching molecules to the fusion proteins that introduce a new physical or chemical property to the fusion protein. Examples of such molecules are, among others, spectroscopic probes or reporter molecules, affinity tags, molecules generating reactive radicals, cross-linkers, ligands mediating protein-protein interactions or molecules suitable for the immobilisation of the fusion protein.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: February 5, 2013
    Assignee: Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne
