    The ability of polymers PAMAM, HDMBr, and CDP to inhibit binding of a murine monoclonal <t>anti-DNA</t> antibody QB1 to DNA was tested <t>by</t> <t>ELISA.</t> Binding of QB1 at 35 ng/ml final concentration was assayed by ELISA in the presence of PAMAM, HDMBr, or CDP at final concentrations from 10 ng/ml to 1,250 ng/ml. Control wells had buffer alone. Antibody was measured as described in Experimental Procedures. The OD 450 values of 3 wells of each polymer concentration or of 6 wells without polymer were averaged. Each point shown is 100% x average OD 450 with polymer/average OD 450 without polymer. Circles show data for PAMAM; squares show data for HDMBr; triangles show data for CDP.

Concentration-dependent binding curves of Pf CoSP with α and β tubulin where y-axis represents absorbance at 490 nm and x-axis denotes amount of Pf CoSP. Error bars represent standard deviation among three replicates. Blue and red line depicts Pf CoSP-α tubulin and Pf CoSP-β tubulin binding, respectively whereas green depicts BSA as negative control. (B and C) Interaction studies of Pf CoSP with α tubulin (B) and β tubulin (C) using MST. Labeled P. falciparum α and β tubulins were titrated against varying concentrations of Pf CoSP. Dose-response curves were generated that resulted in K d values of 210 nM and 6.49 μM for Pf CoSP-α tubulin and Pf CoSP- β tubulin interactions respectively. (D) Co-immunoprecipitation assay. Pf CoSP (D i, iii), α tubulin (D ii) and β tubulin specific antisera (iv) were coupled to aminolink plus coupling resin, and used to pull down α/β tubulin (D i, iii) and Pf CoSP (D ii, iv), respectively from parasite culture. Preimmune antisera (PI) was used as a control in each pull down assay. Protein bands are marked with ‘∗’. (E) Pf CoSP promotes microtubule assembly. Graph represents the turbidimetry plot of tubulin assembly in the absence or presence of Pf CoSP (10 μM). Purified Pf α and Pf β tubulins were incubated with Pf CoSP and the absorbance at 340 nm was monitored as an indicator of tubulin polymerisation. (F) Complex binding assays depicting complex formation of Pf CoSP with ssDNA and α tubulin. Recombinant Pf CoSP was incubated with the cellulose beads with immobilized single stranded calf thymus DNA and post washing allowed to bind with α tubulin. Elutes from the assay were analyzed by western blot analysis using specific polyclonal antisera against Pf CoSP and α tubulin simultaneously. Samples are depicted with + and – above each lane. Elute from single-stranded DNA oligomer immobilized cellulose beads incubated with Pf CoSP were loaded as a positive control. Elutes from beads incubated with α tubulin and elutes from beads incubated with BSA followed by α tubulin were loaded as negative control. Protein bands are marked with ‘∗’.

    The ability of polymers PAMAM, HDMBr, and CDP to inhibit binding of a murine monoclonal anti-DNA antibody QB1 to DNA was tested by ELISA. Binding of QB1 at 35 ng/ml final concentration was assayed by ELISA in the presence of PAMAM, HDMBr, or CDP at final concentrations from 10 ng/ml to 1,250 ng/ml. Control wells had buffer alone. Antibody was measured as described in Experimental Procedures. The OD 450 values of 3 wells of each polymer concentration or of 6 wells without polymer were averaged. Each point shown is 100% x average OD 450 with polymer/average OD 450 without polymer. Circles show data for PAMAM; squares show data for HDMBr; triangles show data for CDP.
