Claims21
A method for immobilizing a Protein A on a self-assembled monolayer, comprising the following step (a) and step (b) in this order:
- a step (a) of preparing a substrate comprising the one molecule of the amino acid and the self-assembled monolayer, wherein the one molecule of the amino acid is bound to the selfassembled monolayer through a peptide bond represented by the following chemical formula (I):
- (wherein R represents a side chain of one molecule of the amino acid)
- the one molecule of the amino acid is selected from the nineteen kinds of the amino acids consisting of cysteine, lysine, histidine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, glycine, asparagine, methionine, serine, tryptophan, leucine, glutamine, alanine, isoleucine, threonine, proline, glutamate, aspartate, and valine, and
- a step (b) of supplying the Protein A to the substrate to form a peptide bond represented by the following chemical formula (II) as a result of reaction between carboxyl group of the one molecule of the amino acid and amino group of the Protein A.
- (wherein R represents a side chain of one molecule of the amino acid)
A sensor comprising a self-assembled monolayer, a one molecule of the amino acid, and a Protein A, wherein,
- the one molecule of the amino acid is interposed between the selfassembled monolayer and the Protein A,
- the Protein A is bound to the self-assembled monolayer through two peptide bonds represented by the following chemical formula (II),
- (wherein R represents a side chain of one molecule of the amino acid)
- the one molecule of the amino acid is selected from the nineteen kinds of amino acids consisting of cysteine, lysine, histidine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, glycine, asparagine, methionine, serine, tryptophan, leucine, glutamine, alanine, isoleucine, threonine, proline, glutamate, aspartate, and valine.
A method for detecting or quantifying a target substance contained in a sample with a sensor, comprising the following steps (a) to (c) in this order,
- a step (a) of preparing the sensor comprising a self-assembled monolayer, a one molecule of the amino acid, a Protein A, and an antibody, wherein,
- the one molecule of the amino acid is interposed between the selfassembled monolayer and the Protein A,
- the Protein A is interposed between the antibody and the one molecule of the amino acid, the antibody is bound specifically to the target substance,
- the Protein A is bound to the self-assembled monolayer through two peptide bonds represented by the following chemical formula (II),
- (wherein R represents a side chain of one molecule of the amino acid) the one molecule of the amino acid is selected from the nineteen kinds of amino acids consisting of cysteine, lysine, histidine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, glycine, asparagine, methionine, serine, tryptophan, leucine, glutamine, alanine, isoleucine, threonine, proline, glutamate, aspartate, and valine,
- a step (b) of supplying the sample to the sensor to cause the target substance to be bound to Protein A, and
- a step (c) of detecting or quantifying the target substance contained in the sample from the captured target substance or the amount thereof.
