VanX, a d,d-dipeptidase, is one of five gene products responsible for vancomycin resistance in pathogenic bacteria and is an attractive drug target in circumventing clinical drug resistance. Our previous combinatorial search of VanX substrates in a dipeptide library of d-X(1)-d-X(2) (19(2)=361) forms has led to the discovery of three new compounds (d-Ala-d-Phe, d-Ala-d-Tyr, and d-Ala-d-Trp) having higher k(cat)/K(M) values than those of its natural substrate, d-Ala-d-Ala. Based on structures of newly identified substrates, two representative transition state analogs of substrates, d-Ala(P,O)d-Phe (6a) and d-Ala(P,O)d-Ala (6b) dipeptide phosphonates, used as VanX inhibitor were rationally designed and chemically synthesized. In the synthesis, eight synthetic steps in total were employed for preparing each VanX inhibitor, and their overall isolated yields were 21 and 11% for 6a and 6b, respectively. Binding interactions of d-Ala(P,O)d-Phe (6a) and d-Ala(P,O)d-Ala (6b) with VanX were confirmed unambiguously and measured quantitatively by surface plasmon resonance. The result reveals that both dipeptide phosphonates are slow-binding inhibitors of VanX (for 6a, k(on)=1.18 x 10(3)M(-1)s(-1), k(off)=2.31 x 10(-3) s(-1), K(D)=1.96 microM, chi(2)=0.0737; for 6b, k(on)=1.09 x 10(3)M(-1)s(-1), k(off)=1.80 x 10(-2)s(-1), K(D)=16.5 microM, chi(2)=0.0599). This suggests that only a fraction of the conformers of the inhibitors in solution adopts a conformation best suited for binding interaction with VanX and that the VanX-inhibitor complex may concomitantly undergo a conformational isomerization from an initial but fast weak-binding adduct to slowly convert to a tight-binding complex with a more stable bound geometry. Moreover, in comparison with 6b, an additional aromatic interaction of 6a with the Phe79 residue in the active site of the enzyme, through an energetically favorable face-to-face offset stacked orientation, may account for its higher affinity than 6b to VanX. 相似文献

This paper describes a procedure, based on direct binding, for identifying tight-binding ligands for a receptor immobilized on a sensor chip from an array of equimolar tripeptides using surface plasmon resonance. Vancomycin and a library of 96 tripeptides, with molecular weight ranging from 316 to 560 Da, were used as a model system to illustrate the procedure. A consensus structure of the strongest interacting peptides consisted of D-Ala at the C terminus and aromatic amino acid in the penultimate position. Ligands having this structure bound more tightly to vancomycin than the known D-Ala-D-Ala peptide. The throughput of our continuous assay is 96 compounds in 3.3 h, and the sample consumption is less than 2 microg per peptide and 1 ng for vancomycin. This procedure should be applicable to peptide libraries of greater complexity than that used here and to mixtures of small organic compounds. 相似文献

Aptamers are functional nucleic acids possessing high affinity and specificity to their cognate ligands and are isolated from a library of nucleic acids by iterative rounds of selection and amplification. In the current study, we used surface plasmon resonance (Biacore) as an efficient methodology for selecting aptamers that bind to hemagglutinin (HA) of human influenza virus. This procedure allowed us to monitor and select the target-bound aptamers specifically and simultaneously. These studies not only yielded an aptamer that binds to the HA of influenza virus with high affinity but also revealed the consensus sequence, 5'-GUCGNCNU(N)(2-3)GUA-3, for HA recognition. 相似文献

We developed a technique for the measurement of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) to detect interactions of anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) agents with transmembrane TNF-α (mTNF-α) on living whole cells. The injection of a suspension of mTNF-α expressing Jurkat cells, used as an analyte, gave a clear binding response to anti-TNF agents, such as etanercept, infliximab and adalimumab, immobilized on sensorchip. The binding response of the analyte cells increased in a concentration-dependent manner and was competitively reduced by adding soluble TNF receptors to the analyte cell suspension. Treatment of analyte cells with free anti-TNF agent before injection reduced the binding response between the analyte cells and immobilized-etanercept on sensorchip, and the inhibitory effect of free anti-TNF agent was concordant with the affinity of anti-TNF agent for soluble TNF-α. These findings indicate that the SPR response arises from specific binding between anti-TNF agent and its target on cell membrane. 相似文献

Tetrapyridylporphyrins containing four chloro(2,2′-bipyridine)platinum(II) complexes attached at the meta (3-H2TPtPyP) and para (4-H2TPtPyP) positions of the peripheral pyridine ligands were synthesized and their interaction with DNA investigated. The compounds were isolated in the solid state and characterized by means of spectroscopic and analytical techniques. According to molecular simulations, the two isomers exhibit contrasting structural characteristics, consistent with a saddle shape configuration for 3-H2TPtPyP and a planar geometry for 4-H2TPtPyP. Surface plasmon resonance studies were carried out on the interaction of the complexes with calf thymus DNA, revealing a preferential binding of 3-H2TPtPyP, presumably at the DNA major grooves. 相似文献

For the quantitative evaluation of low levels of an estriol metabolite of estriol (estriol-16-glucuronide (E3-16G)) in liquid media, we developed a simple and highly sensitive immunoassay using a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor which did not require any time-consuming sample pretreatment steps. E3-16G was conjugated to ovalbumin (OVA) through an oligoethylene glycol (OEG) linker to form protein conjugates (E3-16G-OEG-OVA), which were then immobilized on a carboxymethyl dextran-coated sensor chip via amine coupling to develop inhibition immunoassays. A limit of detection (LOD) of 76 pg/mL was achieved using a rabbit anti-sheep primary antibody as a binding agent. The detection limit was further improved by using synthesized gold colloids (15 nm) as high mass labels conjugated to the primary antibody. In this Au nanoparticle-enhanced assay, the concentration of E3-16G in aqueous samples could be determined in 7.5 min at a level as low as 14 pg/mL. In addition, the high stability of the E3-16G-OEG-OVA surface gave no obvious drop in antibody-binding capability after more than 1000 binding/regeneration cycles which significantly lowered the research cost. 相似文献

A surface plasmon resonance (SPR) imaging system was constructed and used to detect the affinity-tagged recombinant proteins expressed in Escherichia coli. With regards to model proteins, the hexahistidine-ubiquitin-tagged human growth hormone (His(6)-Ub-hGH), glutathione S-transferase-tagged human interleukin-6 (GST-hIL6), and maltose-binding protein-tagged human interleukin-6 (MBP-hIL6) expressed in E. coli were analyzed. The cell lysates were spotted on gold thin films coated with 11-mercaptoundecanol (MUOH)/dextran derivatized with Ni(II)-iminodiacetic acid (IDA-Ni(II)), glutathione, or cyclodextrin. After a brief washing of the gold chip, SPR imaging measurements were carried out in order to detect the bound affinity-tagged fusion proteins. Using this new approach, rapid high-throughput expression analysis of the affinity-tagged proteins were obtained. The SPR imaging protein chip system used to measure the expression of affinity-tagged proteins in a high-throughput manner is expected to be an attractive alternative to traditional laborious and time-consuming methods, such as SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and Western blots. 相似文献

We describe a method of amplifying the biosensing signal in surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based immunoassays using an antibody–carbon nanotube (CNT) conjugate. As a model system, human erythropoietin (EPO) and human granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM–CSF) were detected by sandwich-type immunoassays using an SPR biosensor. For the amplification of the SPR signal, the CNT was conjugated with a polyclonal antibody, and then the conjugates were reacted with antibodies coupled with the target proteins. This amplification strategy increases the dynamic range of the immunoassays and enhances the detection sensitivity. The SPR immunoassays, combined with the CNT-assisted signal amplification method, provided a wide dynamic range over four orders of magnitude for both EPO and GM–CSF (0.1–1000 ng/ml). The CNT amplification method is expected to realize the detection of picogram levels and a wide dynamic detection range of multiple proteins, enabling it to offer a robust analysis tool for the development of biopharmaceutical production. 相似文献

A method was developed to rapidly identify high-affinity human antibodies from phage display library selection outputs. It combines high-throughput Fab fragment expression and purification with surface plasmon resonance (SPR) microarrays to determine kinetic constants (kon and koff) for 96 different Fab fragments in a single experiment. Fabs against human tissue kallikrein 1 (hK1, KLK1 gene product) were discovered by phage display, expressed in Escherichia coli in batches of 96, and purified using protein A PhyTip columns. Kinetic constants were obtained for 191 unique anti-hK1 Fabs using the Flexchip SPR microarray device. The highest affinity Fabs discovered had dissociation constants of less than 1 nM. The described SPR method was also used to categorize Fabs according to their ability to recognize an apparent active site epitope. The ability to rapidly determine the affinities of hundreds of antibodies significantly accelerates the discovery of high-affinity antibody leads. 相似文献

In this study, we fabricated a novel variable wavelength surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor, which detects resonance conditions such as a maximum attenuation wavelength, measuring change of microscopic refractive index. Such a change was measured to detect a salmonella antigen–antibody reaction and a penicillinase–penicillin reaction. Our experiments were performed after immobilizing a salmonella antibody on the sensor chip. We measured the shift in resonant wavelength during the antigen–antibody reaction for 30 min by injecting 5 × 107 cells/ml concentration of salmonella antigen solution into the sample chamber. Also, after immobilizing penicillinase on the sensor chip, we measured the shift in resonant wavelength during the reaction. Penicillin solution at 10 mM was injected into the sample chamber. The shift of resonant wavelength for each experiment was measured using a white light source, multimode optical fiber, a part of sensor chip and an optical spectrum analyzer.As a result, the resonant wavelength shifted about 0.26 nm/min owing to the salmonella antibody–antigen reaction. Thus, we could detect the change in wavelength (0.8 nm/min) through the interaction of penicillin and penicillinase for 15 min using variable wavelength SPR sensor. 相似文献

A surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor probe with integrated reference surface is described. In order to fabricate the integrated reference surface, two dielectric layers with different thickness were deposited on the single gold SPR sensor surface via plasma polymerization of hexamethyldisiloxane. The working sensor surface was a 34 nm dielectric layer with immobilized bovine serum albumin (BSA) antigen and an adjacent thin 1 nm dielectric layer without BSA provided reference surface. A specific immunoreaction of anti-BSA antibody was detected after immersion of the SPR probe into sample solution. Simultaneous observation of reference and working surface response enabled determination of the immunoreaction without the need for the baseline measurement. Moreover, compensation of nonspecific adsorption could be confirmed using anti-human serum albumin antibody. 相似文献

We report an innovative at-line method to monitor concentration of bioactive antibody (i.e., antibody with conserved antigen-binding activity) secreted during bioreactor culture by the use of surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based biosensor technology. In a first series of experiments, conditions for SPR-based measurements were validated off-line by monitoring bioactive antibody concentration in conditioned medium from 500-ml baffled flask hybridoma cell cultures. A fully automated experimental setup in which the SPR-based biosensor was harnessed to a bioreactor was then used at-line to monitor the concentration of bioactive antibody produced in a 3.5-L bioreactor. Quantitative SPR measurements performed both at-line and off-line were in excellent agreement with quantitative Western blotting followed by densitometry analyses. Thus, our experimental study confirms that SPR biosensors can be applied to at-line quantification of correctly folded proteins that are secreted by cells cultured in a bioreactor. Our experimental approach represents a novel and robust analytical strategy to be applied to the control and optimization of the production of bioactive secreted proteins. 相似文献

A surface plasmon resonance (SPR) based natural glycan microarray was developed for screening of interactions between glycans
and carbohydrate-binding proteins (CBPs). The microarray contained 144 glycan samples and allowed the real-time and simultaneous
screening for recognition by CBPs without the need of fluorescent labeling. Glycans were released from their natural source
and coupled by reductive amination with the fluorescent labels 2-aminobenzamide (2AB) or anthranilic acid (AA) followed by
high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) fractionation making use of the fluorescent tag. The released and labeled glycans,
in addition to fluorescently labeled synthetic glycans and (neo)glycoproteins, were printed on an epoxide-activated chip at
fmol amounts. This resulted in covalent immobilization, with the epoxide groups forming covalent bonds to the secondary amine
groups present on the fluorescent glycoconjugates. The generated SPR glycan array presented a subset of the glycan repertoire
of the human parasite Schistosoma mansoni. In order to demonstrate the usefulness of the array in the simultaneous detection of glycan-specific serum antibodies, the
anti-glycan antibody profiles from sera of S. mansoni-infected individuals as well as from non-endemic uninfected controls were recorded. The SPR screening was sensitive for differences
between infection sera and control sera, and revealed antibody titers and antibody classes (IgG or IgM). All SPR analyses
were performed with a single SPR array chip, which required regeneration and blocking of the chip before the application of
a serum sample. Our results indicate that SPR-based arrays constructed from glycans of natural or synthetic origin, pure or
as mixture, can be used for determining serum antibody profiles as possible markers for the infection status of an individual. 相似文献

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor formats using gold nanoparticle or protein signal amplification for the sensitive assay of small molecules were developed using progesterone as a model compound. Progesterone was immobilized to a dextran surface in the Biacore biosensor through in situ covalent immobilization using an oligoethylene glycol linker attached to the 4 position of the steroid. This surface produced stable antibody binding for in excess of 1100 assay cycles. Using this surface, assays were developed for progesterone using 10- and 20-nm gold-streptavidin labels attached to biotinylated monoclonal antibody in both label prebinding and sequential binding formats. Prelabeling formats gave no signal enhancement but produced assays with limits of detection of 143 pg/ml, compared with approximately 1 ng/ml in previous studies. Sequential binding formats gave signal enhancements of 2.2-fold over the monoclonal antibody and a limit of detection of 23.1 pg/ml. It was found that secondary antibody labeling gave 8.1-fold signal enhancements and a limit of detection of 20.1 pg/ml, whereas use of secondary antibody-25 nm gold complexes provided more signal enhancement (13-fold) and a further improvement in limit of detection of 8.6 pg/ml. 相似文献

Complexes involving three DNA strands were used to demonstrate that the single-cycle kinetics (SCK) method, which consists in injecting sequentially samples at increasing concentrations and until now used exclusively to investigate bimolecular complexes by surface plasmon resonance, can be extended to the kinetic analysis of ternary complexes. DNA targets, B, were designed with sequences of variable lengths on their 3' sides that recognise a surface-immobilized biotinylated DNA anchor, A. These targets displayed on their 5' sides sequences that recognise DNA oligonucleotides of variable lengths, C, namely the analytes. Combinations of B and C DNA oligonucleotides on A generated ternary complexes each composed of two Watson-Crick helices displaying different kinetic properties. The target-analyte B-C duplexes were formed by sequentially injecting three increasing concentrations of the analytes C during the dissociation phase of the target B from the anchor A. The sensorgrams for the target-analyte complexes dissociating from the functionalized surface were successfully fitted by the SCK method while the target dissociated from the anchor, i.e. on a decaying surface. Within the range of applicability of the method which is driven by the rate of dissociation of the target from the anchor, the rate and equilibrium constants characteristic of these target-analyte duplexes of the ternary complexes did not depend on how fast the targets dissociated from the immobilized DNA anchor. In addition the results agreed very well with those obtained when such duplexes were analysed directly as bimolecular complexes, i.e. when the target, modified with a biotin, was directly immobilized onto a streptavidin sensor chip surface rather than captured by an anchor. Therefore the method we named SCKODS (Single-Cycle Kinetics On a Decaying Surface) can also be used to investigate complexes formed during a dissociation phase, in a ternary complex context. The SCKODS method can be combined with the SCK one to fully characterize the two bimolecular complexes of a ternary complex. 相似文献

The analysis of experimental data of exponential type plays a central role in many biophysical applications. We introduce a novel noniterative algorithm to analyze the association phase and dissociation phase of surface plasmon resonance experiments. It is shown that this algorithm can determine kinetic constants with a high level of accuracy in the presence of significant levels of noise. This algorithm should provide a valuable alternative to existing data analysis techniques. 相似文献

In this study, we attempted to develop a surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based immunoassay sensor to detect alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in human plasma at the nanogram level, as is required for clinical diagnosis of hepatocellular tumors. A self-assembled monolayer (SAM) surface of tri(ethylene glycol) (TEG) and carboxyl group-terminated hexa(ethylene glycol) (HEG) was employed to suppress the nonspecific adsorption of plasma components onto the sensor surface. AFP was detected by a sandwich-type immunoassay using two kinds of antibodies, primary and secondary, in this system. The SPR signal shift was further enhanced by applying an antibody (polyclonal) against the second antibody. With this method, the SPR signals were highly intensified, and so nanogram levels (ng/ml) of AFP could be easily detected with a high signal/noise ratio, as is necessary for clinical diagnosis. It is expected that our SPR-based immunoassay method can also be applicable to the detection of several other tumor markers that are present in low concentrations in human blood. 相似文献

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is a powerful technique for measuring molecular interaction in real-time. SPR can be used to detect molecule to cell interactions as well as molecule to molecule interactions. In this study, the SPR-based biosensing technique was applied to real-time monitoring of odorant-induced cellular reactions. An olfactory receptor, OR I7, was fused with a rho-tag import sequence at the N-terminus of OR I7, and expressed on the surface of human embryonic kidney (HEK)-293 cells. These cells were then immobilized on a SPR sensor chip. The intensity of the SPR response was linearly dependent on the amount of injected odorant. Among all the aldehyde containing odorants tested, the SPR response was specifically high for octanal, which is the known cognate odorant for the OR I7. This SPR response is believed to have resulted from intracellular signaling triggered by the binding of odorant molecules to the olfactory receptors expressed on the cell surface. This SPR system combined with olfactory receptor-expressed cells provides a new olfactory biosensor system for selective and quantitative detection of volatile compounds. 相似文献

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors are potentially lethal but also have applications as therapeutic drugs for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s. Enzyme inhibitor binding are difficult to be detected directly by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) due to their small molecular weight. In this article, we describe the detection of AChE inhibitor binding by SPR without the use of competitive binding or antibodies. AChE was immobilized on the gold surface of an SPR sensor through covalent attachment to a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of a COOH-terminated alkanethiol. The activity of the immobilized protein and the surface density were determined by using a standard photometric assay. Binding of two reversible inhibitors, which are used as therapeutic drugs, was detectable by SPR without the need to further modify the surface or the use of other reagents. The binding affinities (KA) obtained from the fits were 3.8 × 103 M−1 for neostigmine and 1.7 × 103 M−1 for eserine, showing a higher affinity of the sensor for neostigmine. We believe that the SPR sensor’s ability to detect these inhibitors is due to conformational changes of the enzyme structure on inhibitor binding. 相似文献

A technique of phase-polarisation contrast (PPC) for the enhancement of the contrast of a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) intensity profile is proposed and experimentally realised. The technique exploits the peculiarities of light phase and polarisation behaviour under SPR. It applies to non-optimum SPR coupling conditions and enables one to lower the resonant minimum of reflected intensity nearly to zero, and hence to increase substantially the ratio of the intensity from the resonance to that at the minimum. We observed the contrast enhancement by more than one order of magnitude when we applied the PPC scheme. The PPC can be efficiently employed in commercial SPR sensors, as it significantly reduces restrictions on allowable parameters of SPR-supporting metal films and biomolecular layers immobilised on them, facilitates SPR observation, and increases the accuracy of SPR shift measurements. 相似文献
