Abstract Lamivudine or 3TC, the (-) eniantiomer of 2′-deoxy-3′-thiacytidine, is a prototype of a novel class of levogyre dideoxynucleosides analogues used in treatment of HIV and HBV infection. We describe a method corresponding to the first enzyme immunoassay for quantifying this antiviral drug. This technique use an enzyme conjugate that not require the use of radioactive labelling. In this study, anti-3TC antibodies were raised in rabbits by immunising with 3TC-HS-kelhoyle limpet hemocyanin (KLH) conjugate 相似文献

A liver-selective prodrug (3TCSD) of the antiviral drug lamivudine (3TC) was developed and characterized. 3TC was coupled to dextran ( approximately 25 kDa) using a succinate linker, and the in vitro and in vivo behavior of the conjugate was studied using newly developed size-exclusion and reversed-phase analytical methods. Synthesized 3TCSD had a purity of >99% with a degree of substitution of 6.5 mg of 3TC per 100 mg of the conjugate. Furthermore, the developed assays were precise and accurate in the concentration ranges of 0.125-20, 0.36-18, and 1-50 microg/mL for 3TC, 3TC succinate (3TCS), and 3TCSD, respectively. In vitro, the conjugate slowly released 3TC in the presence of rat liver lysosomes, whereas it was stable in the corresponding buffer. In vivo in rats, conjugation of 3TC to dextran resulted in 40- and 7-fold decreases in the clearance and volume of distribution of the drug, respectively. However, the accumulation of the conjugated 3TC in the liver was 50-fold higher than that of the parent drug. The high accumulation of the conjugate in the liver was associated with a gradual and sustained release of 3TC in the liver. These studies indicate the feasibility of the synthesis of 3TCS-dextran and its potential use for the selective delivery of 3TC to the liver. 相似文献

酶标免疫测定法(ELISA)中最关键的化合物是酶-抗体结合物,将酶和抗体交联起来需用交联剂。本文作者使用了N-琥珀酰亚胺基3-(2-吡啶基二硫)丙酸酯(简称SPDP)将辣根过氧化物酶(HRP)和兔抗小鼠IgG(兔IgG)交联起来。我们试验了SPDP/HRP,SPDP/IgG和HRP/IgG的不同比例,以期获得活性高的酶-抗体结合物。此外还研究了从结合物中去除自由HRP和自由IgG的方法。用SDS-PAGE及硝酸纤维膜电泳转移法证明本法制备的结合物不含HRP及IgG的自身聚合物。用ELISA法鉴定结合物制品时,一般稀释度可达到1:10,000以上,有的可达到1:20,000(当结合物浓度A_(280nm)=1.0,底物显色A_(492nm)=1.0时)。 相似文献

We describe an enzyme immunoassay for testosterone in which we use a testosterone-3-(carboxymethyl)oxime horseradish peroxidase conjugate as the label and an antiserum, raised in rabbits, to testosterone-3-(carboxymethyl)oxime-bovine serum albumin conjugate. Polyethylene glycol (Carbowax 6000) is used to separate antibody-bound and free steroid. The assay has a sensitivity of 12 pg/assay tube and satisfies the usual criteria of specificity, precision and accuracy. The results agree well with those obtained with a comparable radioimmunoassay. 相似文献

In order to obtain nuclease and human serum albumin (HSA) conjugates with a high enzyme content it is proposed to use a ligand-free HSA. The ligands are removed with the help of a strong anion exchanger. A two-stage procedure of conjugate preparation is proposed. It consists in the complexation of ligand-free HSA and enzyme and subsequent co-condensation of protein molecules of the poly-complex with the aid of glutaric aldehyde. When the conjugates are administered to rabbits intravenously, the RNAase activity is manifested in blood for 3-5 days. Moreover, in the case of conjugates with a molecular weight of 80 kDa, the prolongation time is greater than for conjugate with a higher molecular weight. 相似文献

N-(3-Aminopropyl)pyrrole was covalently coupled with alginate in an aqueous-phase reaction by means of carbodiimide-mediated activation chemistry to provide a pyrrole-alginate conjugate for subsequent use in biosensor applications. The pyrrole-alginate conjugate was quantified by UV spectroscopy at 230 nm, by an HPSEC-MALLS analytical method, as well as by FTIR and 13C NMR spectroscopies. The new pyrrole-alginate conjugate was used for the immobilization of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) onto an electrode surface by physical entrapment resulting from the gellification process and electrochemical polymerization of the pyrrole groups. The efficiency of this cross-linking approach (chemical and electrochemical) was investigated by comparing the amount of enzyme released from polypyrrole-alginate and regular alginate. In addition, biosensors were prepared by entrapment of the PPO in polypyrrole-alginate and regular alginate matrixes and their performance for the amperometric determination of catechol chosen as a model analyte was examined, yielding a sensitivity of 350 and 80 microA M(-1) cm(-2), respectively, for polypyrrole-alginate and alginate biosensors. 相似文献

Beta-lactamase (penicillinase) has been used as a marker of monoclonal antibodies in the enzyme immunoassay made with a view to the detection of Y. pestis capsular antigen and antibodies to it. The trial of the enzyme immunoassay with the use of the beta-lactamase conjugate in laboratories and under field conditions has revealed the advantage of this assay over hemagglutination tests commonly used for this purpose. 相似文献

Chlorophyllin a was conjugated with alpha-(3-aminopropyl)-omega-methoxypoly(oxyethylene), PEG-NH(2), to form the PEG-chlorophyllin conjugate through acid-amide bonds. The PEG-chlorophyllin conjugate was stable toward light illumination under anaerobic condition in comparison with chlorophyllin a. The conjugate catalyzed the reduction of methyl viologen in the presence of 2-mercaptoethanol and the evolution of hydrogen gas in the presence of methyl viologen (an electron carrier), 2-mercaptoethanol (an electron donor) and hydrogenase (Scheme 1). Furthermore, the PEG-chlorophyllin conjugate catalyzed the photoreduction of NADP(+) or NAD(+) in the presence of ascorbate as an electron donor and ferredoxin-NADP(+) reductase as the coupling enzyme. Utilizing the reducing power of NADPH generated by the PEG-chlorophyllin conjugate under the illumination, CO(2) fixation was accomplished by the synthesis of malate (C(4)) from pyruvate (C(3)) and CO(2) in the presence of malic enzyme (Scheme 2). These reactions mentioned above did never proceed in dark or without each enzyme. 相似文献

Theoretical considerations suggest that external forces play a significant role in cell-cell conjugate formation and may lead to the misinterpretation of adhesion data. To test this, the stability of conjugates formed between CTL and fibroblast target cells (TC) was examined in the controlled shear environment of a parallel plate flow chamber. Murine fibroblast targets expressing class I maternally transmitted Ag Mtaa or Mtab were grown on a glass slide that formed one wall of the flow chamber and were used in conjunction with anti-Mtaa and anti-Mtab specific mouse CTL clones to establish a panel of Ag-reciprocal targets and lymphocytes. Although cytolysis assays indicated that lymphocytes recognized and destroyed appropriate but not inappropriate targets, the stability of some CTL/TC conjugates was Ag independent. In all cases, the conjugate stability was shear dependent over a 100-fold range (0.04 to 4.0 dynes/cm2). For some clones, the ratio of the stabilities of Ag-specific CTL/TC conjugates to nonspecific conjugates was significantly enhanced with increasing shear. This implies that the role of Ag specificity in CTL/TC adhesion may be misinterpreted if the shear environment of CTL/TC conjugates is unknown or uncontrolled. Kinetic analysis revealed that conjugate stability was dependent on the exposure time to external forces and that there existed two populations of conjugates; weak associations that disengaged within the first 30 s of flow, and strong associations that remained attached even after a 5-min exposure to a steady shear stress. The stability of Ag-specific CTL/TC conjugates at 0.04 dynes/cm2 was enhanced by 50% as the temperature was increased from 25 to 37 degrees C, whereas the stability of nonspecific CTL/TC associations was not affected. This result indicates that significant Ag-specific strengthening may occur at physiologic temperatures. This work suggests the importance of attention to role of fluid mechanical shear stress in standard adhesion assays. 相似文献

Human axillary odor is formed by the action of Corynebacteria on odorless axilla secretions. Sulfanylalkanols, 3-methyl-3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol in particular, form one key class of the odoriferous compounds. A conjugate with the dipeptide Cys-Gly has been reported as the secreted precursor for 3-methyl-3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol. Here, we confirm the Cys-Gly-(S) conjugate as the major precursor of this odorant, with lower levels of the Cys-(S) conjugate being present in axilla secretions. The enzymatic release of 3-methyl-3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol from the Cys-Gly-(S) conjugate by the axilla isolate Corynebacterium Ax20 was thus investigated. Cellular extracts of Ax20 released 3-methyl-3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol from the Cys-Gly-(S) conjugate and from the Cys-(S) conjugate, whereas the previously isolated C-S lyase of this bacterial strain was only able to cleave the Cys-(S) conjugate. o-Phenanthroline blocked the release from the Cys-Gly-(S) conjugate but did not affect cleavage of the Cys-(S) conjugate, indicating that in a first step, a metal-dependent dipeptidase hydrolyzes the Cys-Gly bond. This enzyme was purified by four chromatographic steps and gel electrophoresis, and the partial amino acid sequence was determined. The corresponding gene was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. It codes for a novel dipeptidase with a high affinity toward the Cys-Gly-(S) conjugate of 3-methyl-3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol. Co-incubating either the synthetic Cys-Gly-(S) conjugate or fresh axilla secretions with both the C-S lyase and the novel dipeptidase did release 3-methyl-3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol, proving that the sequential action of these two enzymes from the skin bacterium Corynebacterium Ax20 does release the odorant from the key secreted precursor. 相似文献

A sensitive bridge heterologous enzyme immunoassay of progesterone using geometrical isomers of progesterone 3(O-carboxymethyl)oxime(E/Z) was developed. Isomers were separated by synthesis of N-hydroxysuccinimide esters. Progesterone 3(Z)(O-carboxymethyl)oxime N-hydroxysuccinimide ester bound with beta-galactosidase in an appropriate molar ratio provided a conjugate suitable for an enzyme immunoassay. The antiserum was raised in rabbits by immunizing the animals with the progesterone 3(E)(O-carboxymethyl)oxime-bovine serum albumin conjugate. This bridge heterologous enzyme immunoassay proved to have sufficient sensitivity equivalent to radioimmunoassay and excellent specificity. 相似文献

A new cross-linking reagent of the hetero-bisfunctional type, a N-(maleimidobenzoyloxy)-succinimide (MBS) was prepared and used for enzyme labelling of viomycin under mild aqueous conditions by a two-step process. In the first step a maleimide residue was selectively introduced onto the N1-amino group of viomycin with a limited amount of MBS. The second step consisted of thioether formation between the maleimide residue and free thiol groups of beta-D-galactosidase. An antiserum to viomycin was raised in rabbit by immunization with a viomycin-BSA conjugate. The conjugate was prepared by protecting N6-amino group of viomycin with an acetyl group and succinylating the N1-amino group, activating the carboxyl group by a mixed anhydride method and coupling it with the amino groups of bovine serum albumin (BSA). The specificity of the antiserum was proved by an enzyme immunoassay based on the competition between viomycin and its enzyme conjugate toward diluted solutions of the antiserum. By use of the viomycin-enzyme conjugate and the antiserum to viomycin, enzyme immunoassay of viomycin was successfully performed by the competitive binding procedure with the double-antibody method, and 0.1 to 4 ng of the antibiotic could be detected. 相似文献

The method for the determination of insulin by means of the enzyme immunoassay, based on the use of insulin-peroxidase conjugates, has been developed. In this assay the scheme of the successive saturation of the active sites of antibodies is used. The antigenic properties of two conjugates differing in the method of their preparation are compared. The conjugates were obtained by the covalent binding of peroxidase, oxidized in its carbohydrate component, with insulin (conjugate 1) or hexamethylene-diamine-modified insulin (conjugate 2). The conjugates represented a mixture of oligomers differing in their molecular weight. Conjugate 1 possessed higher affinity to antibodies and higher enzymatic activity than conjugate 2. The method for evaluating the quality of antisera to insulin used in the assay has been proposed. The time of the insulin assay is 5-16 hours, the limit of insulin detection is 5 microU/ml, the variation factor is 3-12%. 相似文献

With the impressive growth in gene sequence data that has become available, recombinant proteins represent an increasingly vast source of molecular components, with unique functional and structural properties, for use in biotechnological applications and devices. To facilitate the use, manipulation, and integration of such molecules into devices, a controllable method for their chemical modification was developed. In this approach, a trifunctional labeling reagent first recognizes and binds a His-tag on the target protein's surface. After binding, a photoreactive group on the trifunctional molecule is triggered to create a covalent linkage between the reagent and the target protein. The third moiety on the labeling reagent can be varied to bring unique chemical functionality to the target protein. This approach provides: (1) specificity in that only His-tagged targets are modified, (2) regio-specific control in that the target is modified proximal to the His-tag, the position of which can be varied, and (3) stoichiometric control in that the number modifications is limited by the binding capacity of the His-tag. Two such labeling reagents were designed, synthesized, and used to modify both N- and C-terminally His-tagged versions of the enzyme murine dihydrofolate reductase (mDHFR). The first reagent biotinylated the enzyme,while the second served to attach an oligonucleotide to yield a protein-DNA conjugate. In all cases, modification in this manner brings new functionality to the protein while leaving the enzymatic activity intact. The protein-DNA conjugate was used to specifically immobilize the active enzyme through DNA hybridization onto polystyrene microspheres, a step toward creating a functional protein microarray. 相似文献

Selective chemotherapy remains a key issue for successful treatment in cancer therapy. The use of targeting approaches like the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect of macromolecules, is consequently needed. Here, we report the preparation of a novel catalytic antibody-polymer conjugate for selective prodrug activation. HPMA copolymer was conjugated to catalytic antibody 38C2 through an amide bond formation between epsilon-amino group of lysine residue from the antibody molecule and a p-nitrophenyl ester of the polymer. The conjugate was purified over a size exclusion column using FPLC. In the isolated fraction, one or two molecules of polymer were conjugated to one molecule of antibody based on gel analysis. The resulting conjugate retained most of its catalytic activity (75-81%) in comparison to the free antibody. The activity was monitored with a fluorogenic substrate and a prodrug activation assay using HPLC. Furthermore, the conjugate was evaluated in vitro for its ability to activate an etoposide prodrug using two different cancer cell lines. Cells growth inhibition using the prodrug and the conjugate was almost identical to inhibition by the free antibody and the prodrug. For the first time, a catalytic antibody was conjugated to a passive targeting moiety while retaining its catalytic ability to activate a prodrug. The conjugate described in this work can be used for selective activation of prodrug in the PDEPT (polymer directed enzyme prodrug therapy) approach by replacing the enzyme component with catalytic antibody 38C2. 相似文献

An antigen heterologous enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for directly measuring progesterone in serum is described. Six combinations of antigens and enzyme conjugates were tested; the enzyme conjugate 17-alphaOH-progesterone-3-O-carboxymethyloxime-alkalinephosphatase (17-alphaOH-P-3-CMO-ALP) and the immunogen progesterone-3-carboxymethyloxime-bovine serum albumin (P-3-CMO-BSA) were found to be best. Fifty microliters of standard or serum sample and 100 microL of the 17-alphaOH-P-3-CMO-ALP enzyme conjugate were added to the antibody coated wells, and incubated for 1 h at 37 degrees C. Bound enzyme activity was measured by using p-nitrophenyl phosphate as substrate. The sensitivity of the assay was 0.11 ng/mL, and intra- and inter-assay CVs ranged from 5.1% to 9.6%. The analytical recoveries were 97-105%. The serum progesterone values obtained by this method correlated well with those obtained by radioimmunoassay; r=0.97 (n=44). Moreover, in this ELISA no displacing agent was used or special means was required to displace progesterone from corticosteroid binding globulin (CBG). Serum progesterone concentrations of subjects, with histories of recurrent spontaneous abortions were also measured, and correlated well with clinical history. 相似文献

Three proteins, intrinsic factor (IF), transcobalamin (TC), and haptocorrin (HC), all have an extremely high affinity for the cobalamins (Cbls, Kd approximately 5 fM) but discriminate these physiological ligands from Cbl analogues with different efficiencies decreasing in the following order: IF > TC > HC. We investigated interactions of these proteins with a number of ligands: Cbl, fluorescent conjugate CBC, two base-off analogues [pseudo-coenzyme B12 (pB) and adenosyl factor A (fA)], and a baseless corrinoid cobinamide. Protein-ligand encounter and the following internal rearrangements in both molecules were registered as a change in the fluorescence of CBC (alone or mixed with other ligands), a transition in absorbance of pB and fA (base-off --> on-base conversion), and alterations in the molecular mass of two split IF domains. The greater complexity of the binding kinetics followed better Cbl specificity (HC < TC < IF). On the basis of the experimental results, we propose a general binding model with three major steps: (1) initial attachment of the ligand to the high-affinity C-domain, (2) primary assembly of N- and C-domains, and (3) slow adjustments and fixation of the ligand at the domain-domain interface. Since step 3 was characteristic of highly specific TC and especially IF, we suggest its particular importance for ligand recognition. The designed models revealed the absolute Kd values for a group of analogues. Calculations show that most of them could potentially bind to the specific transporters IF and TC under physiological conditions. Implications of this finding and the protective role of HC are discussed. 相似文献

17alpha-estradiol 17-N-acetylglucosaminide (17alphaE2 17NAG) is an estrogen metabolite hitherto obtained only in rabbits. To gain insight into this unique conjugate, an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) was established by using antiserum elicited against 3-[3-(1-carboxypropyl)] ether of 17alphaE2 17NAG-bovine serum albumin conjugate; horseradish peroxidase, as a label; and 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine, as a chromogen. The method proved to be specific, and the detection range of the assay was 0.20-10.00 ng/ml. A proposed double conjugate, 3-glucuronide of 17alphaE2 17NAG, was synthesized to validate the EIA. The EIA was applied to the determination of the urinary level of 17alphaE2 17NAG in male and female (pregnant and non-pregnant) rabbits with and without beta-glucuronidase-sulfatase preparation from Helix pomatia. The results showed that 17alphaE2 17NAG was mainly excreted as a double conjugate (17alphaE2 17NAG 3-glucuronide and/or 3-sulfate) and that its level varies during pregnancy. 相似文献

The use of covalently bound peroxidase-immunoglobulin conjugate has been compared with soluble peroxidase-antiperoxidase complex as antigen in the third layer of the unlabeled antibody enzyme method. The conjugate conferred no staining. The low sensitivity of the conjugate appeared to be due in part to interference by unconjugated immunoglobulin and in part to diminution of antigenic reactivity of immunoglobulin as a result of conjugation. The triple specificity amplification inherent in the unlabeled antibody enzyme method with peroxidase-antiperoxidase complex may be lost if a peroxidase-immunoglobulin conjugate could be prepared in such a manner that staining occurs. 相似文献

Cellobiase was coupled to a dialdehyde dextran by reductive alkylation in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride. The resulting conjugate, obtained without loss of enzymic activity, presents properties of thermoresistance largely superior to those of native enzyme: the rate of inactivation is reduced compared to that of native enzyme and its optimal temperature of activity is 70-75 degrees C instead of 65 degrees C. Finally the conjugate presents increased longevity when subjected to experiments of operational stability; its hydrolytic activity is maintained at 60 degrees C in a 10% (w/v) cellobiose solution for more than 100 h whereas the native enzyme is inactivated after 45 h. The cellobiase-dextran conjugate was immobilized by covalent coupling on aminated silica by reductive alkylation in the presence of NaBH(3)CN. The characteristics of thermoresistance of this stabilized and immobilized conjugate were studied and compared to those of a preparation of native cellobiase immobilized on a silica support activated with glutaraldehyde. Analysis of the thermoresistance of these two cellobiase preparations clearly shows that immobilization has maintained and even enhanced their properties. In particular, the operational stability, measured at 68 degrees C on 10% (w/v) cellobiose shows an increased longevity of the stabilized and immobilized enzyme for 120 h compared to 60 h for the native immobilized enzyme. Two successive incubations of these cellobiase derivatives show that it is possible to obtain 2.5 times more glucose with the stabilized-immobilized enzyme than with the immobilized preparation. The procedure described above enables us to prepare a thermostabilized immobilized cellobiase. 相似文献
