Background
•SUMO-small ubiquitin-like modifier
•Like phosphorylation, SUMO can alter the function of proteins
•Gene expression/stability, protein activation/deactivation
FRET

Försters Resonance Energy Transfer
http://www.zmb.uzh.ch/resources/protocols/FRET.html?version=simple
Purpose

Develop an in vitro high throughput FRETbased assay kit for SUMO1 and UBC9

Screening for protein-protein interactions


Test for inhibitors
Developing a production procedure to
develop a kit and a user manual for
consumer purposes

Optimization and quality control for
production
Objectives

Optimization of production

Protein Expression


Protein Purification


To powder, to concentrate
FRET Optimization


Stringent wash, Stepwise method, Variation of Stepwise
Dialysis/Lyophilization


Vary Temperature, length of expression
Determine optimal amount of Cypet-SUMO1/Ypet-UBC9 to
gain maximum FRET(FRET does not necessarily depend on
Kd)
Compound Optimization

Introduce inhibitor (UBC9)
Objectives

Quality Control

Stability Testing


Oxidation tests
Design and Assemble Kit

Manual
Secondary Objectives

Add Secretion factors to proteins of
interest to streamline production process

Current Process:


Proteins are produced within the cells
If secondary objective met:

Proteins will be secreted outside the cells

concentrate: Dialysis in buffer, lyophilize, resuspend in water
concentrate: Dialysis in water, lyophilize, resuspend in buffer
FRET optimization
this involves running fret with different amounts of protein in each well.
Suggestion involves running the x axis as amount cypetsumo1
y axis as ypet UBC9. Graph the results to get max fluorescence.
