Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus: identification of a VP3-containing ribonucleoprotein core structure and evidence for O-linked glycosylation of the capsid protein VP2

Virions of infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) were completely disintegrated upon dialysis against salt-free buffers. Direct visualization of such preparations by electron microscopy revealed 5.0- to 6.5-nm-thick entangled filaments. By using a specific colloidal gold immunolabeling technique, these structures were shown to contain the viral protein VP3. Isolation by sucrose gradient centrifugation of the filaments, followed by serological analysis, demonstrated that the entire VP3 content of the virion was recovered together with the radiolabeled genomic material forming the unique threadlike ribonucleoprotein complexes. In a sensitive blotting assay, the outer capsid component of IPNV, i.e., the major structural protein VP2, was shown to specifically bind lectins recognizing sugar moieties of N-acetylgalactosamine, mannose, and fucose. Three established metabolic inhibitors of N-linked glycosylation did not prevent addition of sugar residues to virions, and enzymatic deglycosylation of isolated virions using N-glycosidase failed to remove sugar residues of VP2 recognized by lectins. However, gentle alkaline beta elimination clearly reduced the ability of lectins to recognize VP2. These results suggest that the glycosylation of VP2 is of the O-linked type when IPNV is propagated in RTG-2 cells.     

An 8- to 10-fold enhancement in sensitivity for quantitation of proteins by modified application of colloidal gold

We have modified the highly sensitive protein assay of C. M. Stoscheck (1987, Anal. Biochem. 160, 301-305), resulting in a further 8- to 10-fold enhancement of sensitivity. This assay, responding to protein quantities with a detection limit of 1 ng, involves the single step of addition of colloidal gold solution, as now commonly used in histochemistry and protein blotting, to the protein sample, followed by simple measurement of the change in absorbance at 590 nm within minutes. By increasing the concentration of the colloidal gold, by using gold sol that has been stabilized with 0.01% polyethylene glycol and adjusted to pH 3.8, and by adapting the assay to microtiter plates, this type of assay can be applied to reliably determine proteins in the complete nanogram range. This assay therefore compares favorably to other assay procedures in terms of rapidity, sensitivity, expense, and lack of interference by many laboratory reagents, although like the others it suffers from the drawback of differences in response of different proteins, which is inherent in dye-binding assays.     

A nanogram-level colloidal gold single reagent quantitative protein assay

We have developed a nanogram-level quantitative protein assay based on the binding of colloidal gold to proteins adhered to nitrocellulose paper. The protein–gold complex produces a purple color proportional to the amount of protein present, and the intensity of the stain is quantified by densitometry. Typical assays require minimal starting material (10–20 μl) containing 1 to 5 μg protein. A small volume (2 μl) of protein solution is applied to nitrocellulose paper in a grid array and dried. The nitrocellulose is incubated in colloidal gold suspension with gentle agitation (2–16 h), rinsed with water, and scanned. Densitometric analysis of the scanned images allows quantitation of the unknown sample protein concentration by comparison with protein standards placed on the same nitrocellulose grid. The assay requires significantly less sample than do conventional protein assays. In this report, the Golddots assay is calibrated against weighed protein samples and compared with the Pierce Micro BCA Protein Assay Kit. In addition, the Golddots assay is evaluated with several known proteins with different physical properties.     

Sulphated Glycosaminoglycans in Guinea Pig Eosinophils Studied by Means of Cationic Colloidal Gold

Using bone marrow embedded in hydrophilic resin Lowicryl K4M and cationic colloidal gold pH 1.0 labelling, we studied sites of sulphation and sulphated glycosaminoglycans ultrastructurally in various maturational stages of both eosinophil granulocytes and eosinophil granules of guinea pig. Eosinophil granules reacted positively to cationic gold, the pattern of labelling varying according to the degree of cell maturation. The formation of eosinophil granules takes place throughout the myelocyte stage. Early eosinophil myelocytes contain a large Golgi apparatus with active granulogenesis, while late ones contain a small and less active Golgi apparatus. All the immature granules were labelled positively. However, mature granules with a central crystal bar lost their affinity towards colloidal gold. Interestingly, strong colloidal gold labelling was also observed in the trans to transmost Golgi apparatus, especially in immature eosinophil granulocytes. This indicates that sulphation of glycosaminoglycans occurs in the trans to transmost Golgi apparatus of eosinophil granulocytes. Prior absorption with poly-L-lysine prevented colloidal gold labelling of tissue sections. Methylation of sections at 37°C did not alter the gold labelling, whereas the labelling disappeared after methylation at 60°C. Prior treatment with chondroitinase ABC or heparinase I abolished the majority of colloidal gold labelling in immature eosinophil granules. Taking these results together, we conclude that immature eosinophil granules contain sulphated glycosaminoglycans including chondroitin sulphate or heparan sulphate or both.     

A protein assay based on colloidal gold conjugates with trypsin

The standard sol particle immunoassay (SPIA) is based on a biospecific aggregation of gold nanoparticle conjugates, followed by conventional spectrophotometry. Here we propose a novel SPIA format that uses microtitration immunological plates and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay reader. The novel and standard assays are exemplified by determination of immunoglobulin G by using 15-nm colloidal gold-protein A conjugates. We also describe a novel sol particle-trypsin assay using conjugates of gold nanoparticles with trypsin. The method is based on measuring spectral extinction changes caused by the addition of protein to a conjugate solution. The changes in the extinction spectra are presumed to be related to aggregation of gold nanoparticles caused by polyvalent binding of protein molecules to the trypsin molecules of the conjugates.     

The use of gold reagents to quantitate antibodies eluted from nitrocellulose blots: application to electron microscopic immunocytochemistry

An assay is described in which gold reagents were used to quantitate nanogram amounts of antibody that had been eluted from antigens immobilized on nitrocellulose paper. Standard curves were generated by the application of rabbit immunoglobulin G (IgG) to nitrocellulose sheets assembled in a dot blot matrix apparatus. Blots were stained using either colloidal gold or immunogold, enabling quantitation of IgG concentration by scanning densitometry. Linear and reproducible standard curves were obtained. As little as 1 ng IgG/dot could be quantified using either gold reagent. In contrast to colloidal gold, immunogold could be used specifically to quantitate rabbit IgG regardless of the presence of bovine serum albumin or antigen coeluted from the nitrocellulose blot. The applicability of the immunogold assay was demonstrated by fractionating a complex rabbit antiserum raised against the RIM protein of frog retinal rod outer segments. Anti-RIM antibody was affinity-purified, quantitated by the immunogold assay, and subsequently employed in immunocytochemical studies using thin sections of retina embedded in a hydrophilic plastic, LR-Gold.     

Commercial preparations of colloidal gold-antibody complexes frequently contain free active antibody

Using a simple fluorescence test, we show that commercially prepared colloidal gold complexes with goat second antibodies often contain free active antibody. Because such antibodies will compete with antibody-colloidal gold particles for antigen binding sites, labeling intensity at the ultrastructural level must necessarily be submaximal to an unknown degree with such preparations. A survey of five preparations suggests that the problem may be widespread. We recommend that a test of the sort described be incorporated routinely into protocols with all colloidal gold products.     

Electron-probe x-ray analysis of granules and particles found in aurosomes produced by colloidal gold

Aurosomes produced in the rabbit synovial membrane after intraarticular injection of colloidal gold were found to contain large spherical electron-dense granules and fine electron-dense particles. Electron-probe x-ray analysis demonstrated the presence of gold in the granules and iron in the particles. Sulphur and phosphorus were not detected in these aurosomes produced by colloidal gold. This is in contrast to the aurosomes produced by the soluble gold salt sodium aurothiomalate where besides gold, sulphur and phosphorus are easily detected.     

Immunogenic Properties of Colloidal Gold

We studied the capacity of colloidal gold for enhancing specific and nonspecific immune response in laboratory animals (rabbits, rats, and mice) immunized with antigens of various nature. The antibody titers obtained with colloidal gold as a carrier were higher as compared to the standard immunization techniques (free antigen or its combination with Freund's adjuvant). Application of colloidal gold also enhanced nonspecific immune responses, such as lysozyme concentration in the blood, activity of the complement system proteins, as well as phagocytic and bactericidal activities. The antibodies were tested by immunodot assay using gold markers. Immunization of the animals with colloidal gold conjugates with haptens or complete antigens (without other adjuvants) was shown to induce the production of highly active antibodies. In addition, the amount of antigen used for animal immunization with colloidal gold was an order of magnitude lower, compared to immunization with complete Freund's adjuvant. This fact can be evidence for adjuvant properties of colloidal gold proper.

Adsorption of horseradish peroxidase, ovomucoid and anti-immunoglobulin to colloidal gold for the indirect detection of concanavalin A, wheat germ agglutinin and goat anti-human immunoglobulin G on cell surfaces at the electron microscopic level: a new method, theory and application.

A method is described for the adsorption of selected macromolecules to colloidal gold which is then used as an electron dense marker for the indirect detection of specific cell surface molecules. Membrane bound concanavalin A, which binds specific sugars on horseradish peroxidase, and wheat germ agglutinin, which binds specific sugars on ovomucoid are detected indirectly with gold labeled horseradish peroxidase and ovomucoid, respectively. Goat anti-human IgM on blood lymphocytes is detected with gold labeled rabbit anti-goat IgG. In the preparation of colloidal gold labeled proteins, the problems of flocculation of colloidal gold by proteins and nonadsorption of proteins to colloidal gold, are solved through a combination of concentration of protein and pH variable adsorption isotherms, which allows one to determine the conditions for adsorption of proteins to colloidal gold. Adsorption is pH dependent, the pH conditions correlating with the isoelectric point(s) of the major protein fraction(s); adsorption is influenced by interfacial tension, solubility and by the electrical charge on the molecules. Colloidal gold is inexpensive and preparation of a useful label is rapid, reproducible and the results easily quantitated from electron micrographs.     

Colloidal gold as an electrochemical label of streptavidin-biotin interaction

A new electrochemical method to monitor biotin-streptavidin interaction, based on the use of colloidal gold as an electrochemical label, is investigated. Biotinylated albumin is adsorbed on the pretreated surface of a carbon paste electrode (CPE). This modified electrode is immersed in colloidal gold-streptavidin labelled solutions. Adsorptive voltammetry is used to monitor colloidal gold bound to streptavidin, obtaining a good reproducibility of the analytical signal (R.S.D. = 3.3%). A linear relationship between peak current and streptavidin concentration from 2.5 x 10(-9) to 2.5 x 10(-5) M is obtained when a sequential competitive assay between streptavidin and colloidal gold-labelled streptavidin is carried out. On the other hand, the adsorption of streptavidin on the electrode surface was performed, followed by the reaction with biotinylated albumin labelled with colloidal gold. In this way, a linear relationship between peak current and colloidal gold labelled biotinylated albumin concentration is achieved with a limit of detection of 7.3 x 10(9) gold particles per ml (5.29 x 10(-9) M in biotin).     

Some viscoelastic properties of human erythrocyte spectrin networks end-linked in vitro

We have succeeded in making macroscopic networks of end-linked human erythrocyte spectrin. The network junctions were made using erythrocyte protein 4.1 irreversibly attached to 5 nm (diameter) colloidal gold particles. Rotary shadowing electron microscopy verifies that the protein 4.1-labelled colloidal gold particles bind only to the tail end of the spectrin molecules. Electron micrographs of protein 4.1-labelled colloidal gold particles incubated at 4 degrees C with spectrin dimers reveal that 1-5 spectrin dimers attach to each protein 4.1-labelled colloidal gold particle yielding a spider-like appearance of these complexes. Incubation with a low concentration of spectrin tetramers instead of dimers leads to extensive formation of spectrin microaggregates whereas use of spectrin concentrations higher than 3 mg/ml and a molar ratio between spectrin tetramers and protein 4.1/Au of 4 leads to formation of macroscopic spectrin networks. We have quantitated the viscoelastic properties of such end-linked macroscopic spectrin networks using a gravitational pendulum viscoelastometer. We find that in vitro end-linked spectrin networks can be described by linear viscoelastic theory. The dynamic storage modulus increases almost linearly with the spectrin-protein 4.1/gold particle concentration when the spectrin concentration exceeds about 3 mg/ml and the molar ratio between spectrin tetramers and protein 4.1/Au is 4. At a spectrin concentration of 6 mg/ml and the same ratio between spectrin and protein 4.1/Au, we find a dynamic storage modulus at low frequency of about 80 dyn/cm2. This is in adequate agreement with what is predicted by simple elastomer theory.     

Preparation of colloidal gold for staining proteins electrotransferred onto nitrocellulose membranes

This paper describes a simple method of preparing colloidal gold for staining protein blots. Colloidal gold was prepared from 0.005 or 0.01% HAuCl4 by the addition of formalin as a reductant and potassium hydroxide. Staining of small cell carcinoma tissue extract blotted onto nitrocellulose membranes with this colloidal gold solution resulted in the appearance of a large number of clear wine-red bands. The sensitivity of gold staining was 60 times higher than that of Coomassie brilliant blue staining and almost comparable to that of silver staining of proteins in polyacrylamide gel. The sensitivity of this method was also satisfactory in comparison with that of enzyme immunoblotting. The colloidal gold prepared by this method is usable for routine work.     

Simplified purification and testing of colloidal gold probes

A novel efficient method for purifying and testing colloidal gold probes has been developed. The method consists of concentrating colloidal gold particles conjugated to IgG or protein A in dialysis bags over silica gel and purifying them by gel chromatography on small columns of Sephacryl S-400. Fractions collected are tested by paper immunocytochemical models. Comparisons to gold probes purified by conventional ultracentrifugation documents that ultrastructural staining intensities and total yield of gold probes is the same, but that the chromatographically purified gold probes are less prone to aggregation or clumping. The method has been extensively used for preparing conjugates of 5, 10 or 15 nm gold particles with antirabbit immunoglobulins but has also been exploited for preparing streptavidin-gold conjugates, protein A-gold conjugates and antirabbit immunoglobulin-silver conjugates.
