Presenting Precision Glycomacromolecules on Gold Nanoparticles for Increased Lectin Binding
Glyco-functionalized gold nanoparticles have great potential as biosensors and as inhibitors due to their increased binding to carbohydrate-recognizing receptors such as the lectins. Here we apply previously developed solid phase polymer synthesis to obtain a series of precision glycomacromolecules that allows for straightforward variation of their chemical structure as well as functionalizatio...
متن کاملGold nanoparticle-based competitive colorimetric assay for detection of protein-protein interactions.
A gold nanoparticle-based competitive colorimetric assay uses the ensemble of Concanavalin (ConA) and mannopyranoside-encapsulated gold nanoparticles (Man-GNPs) to identify the binding partners for ConA and the binding constants are determined based on the wavelength shifts.
متن کاملSynthetic Assembly of Mannose Moieties Using Polymer Chemistry and the Biological Evaluation of Its Interaction towards Concanavalin A.
Protein-carbohydrate interactions exhibit myriad intracellular recognition events, so understanding and investigating their specific interaction with high selectivity and strength are of crucial importance. In order to examine the effect of multivalent binding on the specificity of protein-carbohydrate interactions, we synthesized mannose glycosides as a novel type of glycosylated monomer and g...
متن کاملGold nanoparticle-based multivalent carbohydrate probes: selective photoaffinity labeling of carbohydrate-binding proteins.
Multivalent carbohydrate photoaffinity probes were developed based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to provide a streamlined approach toward identification of carbohydrate-binding proteins. By using AuNPs as scaffolds, a carbohydrate ligand and a photoreactive group could be readily assembled on a probe in a modular fashion, which greatly accelerated the process of optimizing the probe design. The...
متن کاملProbing Low Affinity and Multivalent Interactions with Surface Plasmon Resonance: Ligands for Concanavalin A
The affinities of the carbohydrate-binding protein concanavalin A (Con A) for monoand multivalent ligands were measured by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) detection. Assessing protein-carbohydrate affinities is typically difficult due to weak affinities observed and the complications that arise from the importance of multivalency in these interactions. We describe a convenient method to rapidly...
