From: Iron response elements (IREs)-mRNA of Alzheimer's amyloid precursor protein binding to iron regulatory protein (IRP1): a combined molecular docking and spectroscopic approach

Figure 4

Fluorescence intensity measurements for the binding of APP IRE mRNA to IRP1 protein in the presence of iron (anaerobic). APP mRNA (57-nucleotides) was melted and annealed prior to each titration and incubated with IRP1 protein. 100 nM IRP1 protein was incubated with varying amounts of APP IRE mRNA in the absence (——) and presence (——) of 50 µM iron. The excitation wavelength was 280 nm and emission wavelength were 332 nm. The solid lines are the fitted curves.
