Binding affinities of Bim BH3 and Bmf BH3 with Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and Mcl-1.
| Proteins |
Bcl-2 |
Bcl-xL |
Mcl-1 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Peptide (Kd) | |||
| Bim BH3 | 6.1 ± 0.3 nM | 4.4 ± 0.9 nM | 5.8 ± 0.1 nM |
| Bmf BH3 | 5.2 ± 0.3 nM | 5.1 ± 0.4 nM | 185 ± 9.6 nM |
Fluorescence polarization assay was performed to determine the dissociation constants (Kd) of fluorescently labeled Bim BH3 or Bmf BH3 bound to Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, and Mcl-1. All assays were independently performed three times, and Kd was determined by nonlinear regression analysis.
