Résumé
In order to develop a fluorescence polarization (FP) assay for calcium binding proteins, a fluorescent peptides based library of 1328 compounds has been synthesized. The use of this library has been validated by setting up a FP-high-throughput screening (FP-HTS) assay for calmodulin using the synthetic gene product (synCaM). With this assay, a set of 880 FDA approved compounds was screened. Besides the promazine class, we discovered two new classes of compounds that interact with calmodulin in a calcium dependent manner. One class has compounds with anti-histaminic/spasmolytic activities, and the other one are detergents with antibacterial activities.
