Abstract

Split kit: Synthetic helices target chosen protein–protein interactions with high specificity, as assessed by an in vitro split-protein reassembly assay. By using the p53/MDM2 complex as a model system, both the efficacy of the designed ligands and the suitability of the split-protein assay were determined.
