Disclosed are a polyacrylamide-based method of fabricating surface-bound peptide and protein arrays, the arrays themselves, and a method of using the arrays to detect biomolecules and to measure their concentration, binding affinity, and kinetics. Peptides, proteins, fusion proteins, protein complexes, nucleic acids, and the like, are labeled with an acrylic moiety and attached to acrylic-functionalized glass surfaces through a copolymerization with acrylic monomer. The specific attachment of GST-green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion protein was more than 7-fold greater than the nonspecific attachment of non-acrylic labeled GST-GFP. Surface-attached GST-GFP (0.32 ng/mm

) was detectable by direct measurement of GFP fluorescence and this lower detection limit was reduced to 0.080 ng/mm

using indirect antibody-based detection. The polyacrylamide-based surface attachment strategy was also used to measure the kinetics of substrate phosphorylation by the kinase c-Src. The surface attachment strategy is applicable to the proteomics field and addresses denaturation and dehydration problems associated with protein microarray development.
本发明涉及一种基于聚丙烯酰胺的表面结合肽和蛋白质阵列制备方法,以及阵列本身和一种使用阵列检测生物分子并测量其浓度、结合亲和力和动力学的方法。肽、蛋白质、融合蛋白、蛋白质复合物、核酸等标记有丙烯酸基团并通过与丙烯酸单体的共聚反应附着于丙烯酸功能化玻璃表面。与非丙烯酸标记的GST-GFP相比,GST-绿色荧光蛋白(GFP)融合蛋白的特异性附着超过了7倍。表面附着的GST-GFP(0.32 ng/mm2)可通过直接测量GFP荧光检测,并且通过间接抗体检测将此较低的检测限降低至0.080 ng/mm2。基于聚丙烯酰胺的表面附着策略也用于测量激酶c-Src对底物磷酸化的动力学。表面附着策略适用于蛋白质组学领域,并解决了与蛋白质微阵列开发相关的变性和脱水问题。
