An In Vitro FRET-Based Assay for the Analysis of SUMO Conjugation and Isopeptidase Cleavage

互联网

365
To measure rates of sumoylation and isopeptidase cleavage in vitro, we developed an enzyme assay that is based on fl uorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). FRET is a process by which the excited state energy of a fl uorescent donor molecule is transferred to an acceptor molecule. Effi cient energy transfer requires very close proximity, and can therefore be used as a read-out for covalent and non-covalent protein interactions. The assay described here uses bacterially expressed and purifi ed YFP-SUMO-1 and CFP-RanGAP1 as model substrates that are covalently coupled in the presence of recombinant SUMO E1 and E2 enzymes and ATP. Reactions of 25 μl volume, set up in 384-wells plates, give suffi cient signal for analysis. Consequently, this assay requires very low amounts of recombinant proteins and allows measurement of time courses in high-throughput format.
