Peptides used in fluorescence polarization assay

Hsp70/90 C-terminal peptides used in fluorescence polarization assays are shown here. For binding experiments, each peptide tracer/probe contained a 5-carboxyfluorescein-labeled amino terminus. Labels were connected to peptides through an aminohexanoic acid linker. Additionally, for competitive binding experiments, each unlabeled peptide competitor contained a free amino-terminal end. Mutant residues in the C-terminal tracer are in boldface and underlined type.
