Utilizing the unique metal-binding and fluorescent properties of methoxy-substituted (iso)quinolines, varieties of fluorescent probes were developed from TQEN (N,N,N′,N′-tetrakis(2-quinolylmethyl)ethylenediamine) structure.

Equilibrium-dialysis experiments showed that Tris or citrate in the solution prevented copper from occupying completely the specific metal-binding sites on human transferrin. Differential measurements of sedimentation velocity under conditions where two atoms of copper per molecule of protein were bound showed an increase in s020,w, relative to that of the apoprotein, practically the same as that produced by two atoms of iron. Gel-filtration experiments made under the same conditions to investigate the effect of copper binding on the Stokes radius of the protein showed merely that it lost most of the metal as it passed down the column.

ABSTRACT Retroviral vectors produced from packaging cells are invariably contaminated by protein, nucleic acid, and other substances introduced in the manufacturing process. Elimination of these contaminants from retroviral vector preparations is helpful to reduce unwanted side effects, and purified vector preparations are desirable to improve reproducibility of therapeutic effect. Here we report a novel approach to engineer a metal binding peptide (MBP)-tagged murine leukemia virus (MuLV), allowing for one-step purification of retroviral vectors by immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC). We inserted a His6 peptide into an ecotropic envelope protein (Env) by replacing part of its hypervariable region sequence with a sequence encoding the His6 peptide. Display of the His6 tag on the surface of Env endowed the vectors with a high affinity for immobilized metal ions, such as nickel. We demonstrated that the His6-tagged MuLV could be produced to high titers and could be highly purified by one-step IMAC. The protein and DNA contaminants in the purified vector supernatants were below 7 μg/ml and 25 pg/ml, respectively, indicating a 1,229-fold reduction in protein contaminant level and a 6,800-fold reduction in DNA contaminant level. About 56% of the viral vectors were recovered in the IMAC purification. The purified vectors retained their functionality and infectivity. These results establish that an MBP can be functionally displayed on the surface of ecotropic retroviruses without interfering with their integrity, and MBP-tagged retroviral vectors can be highly purified by one-step IMAC.
