Funded Activity Summary

Proteomics Analysis of Interactions Between Chaperonin 10 and Cell Surface Proteins. Specific interactions at the cell surface may induce downstream biological responses. In the case of chaperonin 10, Cpn10, interaction at the cell surface results in immunomodulation of the inflammatory response. Cell surface proteins that interact with Cpn10 have not been identified. This project will use chemical crosslinking and proteomic techniques to identify cell surface proteins that interact with Cpn10 and structural features of Cpn10 involved in these interactions. These findings will providde leads for the development of immunomodulatory therapeutics based on Cpn10 interactions. Analytical technologies will be developed that are applicable to other interacting protein systems.
