Abstract

A filter binding assay to measure affinity of [3H-allyl]17-allylamino geldanamycin ([3H]AAG) for the ATP binding site of the N-terminal domain of human Hsp90alpha (hHsp90alpha9-236) was developed. Diethylaminoethyl cellulose or glass fiber filters impregnated with polyethyleneimine were used to capture the [3H]AAG-Hsp90 complex, and conditions which washed >98% of free [3H]AAG from the filters were developed. The complex formed at a rapid rate (k(on)=2.5 x 10(7)Lmol(-1) x s(-1)) and dissociated with a half-life of 2.3 min (k(off)=5 x 10(-3) x s(-1)). hHsp90alpha9-236 bound to [3H]AAG with a K(d) value of 0.4+/-0.1 microM. [3H]AAG had similar affinities for full-length hHsp90alpha and for hHsp90alpha9-236 variants containing biotinylated N-terminal biotinylation signal sequences and N- or C-terminal His(6) tags. Geldanamycin, ADP, ATP, and radicicol-all known to bind to the ATP domain of Hsp90-competed with [3H]AAG for binding to hHsp90alpha9-236, showing K(d) values in good agreement with reported values.
