Comparative Study of Protein Immobilization Properties on Calixarene Monolayers

چکیده
Three calix[4]arene (Cal-4) derivatives of which contain ethylester (1), carboxylic acid (2), and crownether (3) at the lower rim with a common reactive thiol at the upper rim were synthesized and constructed to self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on Au films. After spectroscopic characterization of monolayers, the interaction between Cal-4 and surface confined bovine serum albumin (BSA) in the SAMs was analyzed by surface plasmon resonance (SPR). The estimated surface concentration of BSA on the Cal-4 SAM with crownether group was the highest among the three Cal-4 derivatives. Anti-hIgG and hIgG pair was employed for the investigation of protein-protein interaction. Molecular interaction between anti-hIgG and hIgG can be detected in a concentration range of 10 pg/mL to 200 pg/mL on the Cal-4 derivative 3 SAM modified SPR chip.

متن کاملGold nanoparticles: calixarene complexation in a mixed calixarene–alkanethiol monolayer†
This paper describes a detailed study on the complexation of pyridinium derivatives with calixarenes bound to gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The studied calixarene derivatives are mixed with alkanethiols to formmixed monolayers on AuNP surfaces. The key findings are: (i) even a small amount (less than 11 mol%) of calixarenes can retain their complexation abilities among a majority of alkanethiols ...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of Activity and Stability of the Free and the Immobilized Endoglucanase from Alicyclobacillus Acidocaldarius
AaCel9A [β-1,4-endoglucanase, (E.C:3.2.1.4)], was immobilized onto glutaraldehyde activated chitosan macrosphere by covalent attachment. The properties of the immobilized AaCel9A were investigated by determining the optimum pH and optimum temperature for activity, thermal stability, and kinetic parameters. The immobilization process shifted the enzyme’s optimum temperature from 65 °C for the fr...
متن کاملChemical Functionalization of Germanium with Dextran Brushes for Immobilization of Proteins Revealed by Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared Difference Spectroscopy.
Protein immobilization studied by attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FT-IR) difference spectroscopy is an emerging field enabling the study of proteins at atomic detail. Gold or glass surfaces are frequently used for protein immobilization. Here, we present an alternative method for protein immobilization on germanium. Because of its high refractive index and broad spec...
متن کاملCalixarene derivative as a tool for highly sensitive detection and oriented immobilization of proteins in a microarray format through noncovalent molecular interaction.
One important factor in fabricating protein microarray is to immobilize proteins without losing their activity on a solid phase. To keep them functional, it is necessary to immobilize proteins in a way that preserve their folded structural integrity. In a previous study, we developed novel Calixarene derivatives for the immobilization of proteins on the surface of a glass slide (1). In this stu...
