ABSTRACT:
A method in which natural sample components are simultaneously fractionated and screened for compounds that bind tightly to specific molecules of interest is disclosed. Such newly isolated ligands are good candidates for potential therapeutic or diagnostic compounds. The natural sample is first combined with a potential target molecule and then subjected to capillary electrophoresis (CE). Charged (or even neutral) compounds present in the natural sample that bind to the added target molecule can alter its normal migration time upon CE, by changing its charge-to-mass ratio, or will cause a variation in peak shape or area. Complex formation can be detected by simply monitoring the migration of the target molecule during electrophoresis. Any new ligands that bind to the target molecule will be good candidates for therapeutic or diagnostic compounds. Interfering, weak-binding ligands commonly present in crude extracts are not detected. Small, neutral ligands, as well as charged ligands, can be identified in competitive binding experiments with known, charged competitor molecules.
