Functional narrative    

Among its varied functions, Tat is a transactivator of transcription of viral genes. The 101 amino acid residue protein described here is the common form of circulating Tat in infected individuals (Foucault et al. 2009)

Detection methods:
  1. Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, far-UV (310 K; pH: 7; H20; When used, TFE or TMAO (response at 20% TFE or 2M TMAO); wt-Tat133 (alone or in presence of TFE, TMAO or urea) 0.1 mg/mL)

  2. Dynamic light scattering (298 K; pH: 7.5; NaCl 100 mM; wt-Tat133 1 mg/mL)

  3. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) (pH: 7.5; NaCl 100 mM; wt-Tat133 1 mg/mL)

  4. Fluorescence, intrinsic (wt-Tat133 50 ug/mL)

  5. Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, far-UV (310 K; pH: 7; sodium phosphate 10 mM; wt-Tat133/Fab' complex 0.6 mg/mL)

  6. Size exclusion/gel filtration chromatography (310 K; pH: 7; NaCl 0.15 M; phosphate (buffer) 0.05 M; wt-Tat133 (Elution volume:) 11.31 mL)

Comments:
In addition to wild-type Tat133, structural analysis was also performed on STLA-Tat133, an inactive mutant form proposed to be a potential vaccine candidate (Foucalt et al. 2009).
