X Abstract

Determining the sequence-recognition properties of DNA-binding proteins and small molecules remains a major challenge. To address this need, we have developed a high-throughput approach that provides a comprehensive profile of the binding properties of DNA-binding molecules. The approach is based on displaying every permutation of a duplex DNA sequence (up to 10 positional variants) on a microfabricated array. The entire sequence space is interrogated simultaneously, and the affinity of a DNA-binding molecule for every sequence is obtained in a rapid, unbiased, and unsupervised manner. Using this platform, we have determined the full molecular recognition profile of an engineered small molecule and a eukaryotic transcription factor. The approach also yielded unique insights into the altered sequence-recognition landscapes as a result of cooperative assembly of DNA-binding molecules in a ternary complex. Solution studies strongly corroborated the sequence preferences identified by the array analysis.
