Isothermal titration calorimetry and surface plasmon resonance analysis using the dynamic approach.

ABSTRACT: Biophysical techniques such as isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) are routinely used to ascertain the global binding mechanisms of protein-protein or protein-ligand interaction. Recently, Dumas etal, have explicitly modelled the instrument response of the ligand dilution and analysed the ITC thermogram to obtain kinetic rate constants. Adopting a similar approach, we have integrated the dynamic instrument response with the binding mechanism to simulate the ITC profiles of equivalent and independent binding sites, equivalent and sequential binding sites and aggregating systems. The results were benchmarked against the standard commercial software Origin-ITC. Further, the experimental ITC chromatograms of 2'-CMP + RNASE and BH3I-1 + hBCL_XL interactions were analysed and shown to be comparable with that of the conventional analysis. Dynamic approach was applied to simulate the SPR profiles of a two-state model, and could reproduce the experimental profile accurately.
