Affinity modification of the primer site of HIV1-RT was performed with an oligonucleotide derivative containing a photoreactive azido group at the 5' end of d(pT)10. The affinity of HIV1-RT for d(pT)10 and for its derivative was first estimated by measuring the Michaelis constants of these two oligonucleotides acting as primers in the retrotranscription of poly(rA). The enzyme was then inactivated under UV-irradiation at 303-365 nm in the presence of ArN3-d(U*T9); the dependence of the rate of inactivation on primer concentration was found to be consistent with the Km value. Last, selectivity of affinity modification was demonstrated through elongation of the covalently bound primer and selective protection of inactivation by d(pT)10 or tRNA(Lys).

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D000345 Affinity Labels Analogs of those substrates or compounds which bind naturally at the active sites of proteins, enzymes, antibodies, steroids, or physiological receptors. These analogs form a stable covalent bond at the binding site, thereby acting as inhibitors of the proteins or steroids.
