Binding domain mapping and compounds, compositions, complexes, methods, and kits related thereto
The present disclosure relates to compounds, complexes, compositions, kits and methods for determining interacting and/or binding sites between e.g., proteins, proteins and nucleic acids, proteins and small molecules, or intrachain protein domains. The disclosure provides rapid and direct positive identification of the contact interface region between such molecules, and can be applied to individual interacting pairs, as well as large-scale or global interactions.
1. A peptide comprising the amino acid sequence set forth as:
CYRAMISYGGADYKRITC (SEQ ID NO:2);
CLKYDAPAFTVTC (SEQ ID NO:4); or
CLNWYRMSPSNQTDKLAAC (SEQ ID NO:7).
2. A method for preventing or disrupting an interaction between a programmed death 1 (PD-1) and a programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1), the method comprising contacting PD-1 or PD-L1 with the peptide of claim 1 before, concomitant with, or after the interaction between PD-1 and PD-L1.
3. A peptide comprising the amino acid sequence set forth as: CYRAMISYGGADYKRITC (SEQ ID NO:2).
4. A peptide comprising the amino acid sequence set forth as: CLKYDAPAFTVTC (SEQ ID NO:4).
5. A peptide comprising the amino acid sequence set forth as: CLNWYRMSPSNQTDKLAAC (SEQ ID NO: 7).
