Characterization of lectin-carbohydrate binding using label-free methods such as impedance-derived electrochemical capacitance spectroscopy (ECS) is desirable to evaluate specific interactions, for example, ArtinM lectin and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) glycoprotein, used here as a model for protein-carbohydrate binding affinity. An electroactive molecular film comprising alkyl ferrocene as a redox probe and ArtinM as a carbohydrate receptive center to target HRP was successfully used to determine the binding affinity between ArtinM and HRP. The redox capacitance, a transducer signal associated with the alkyl ferrocene centers, was obtained by ECS and used in the Langmuir adsorption model to obtain the affinity constant (1.6±0.6)×10(8) L mol(-1). The results shown herein suggest the feasibility of ECS application for lectin glycoarray characterization.
使用无标记方法(如基于阻抗的电化学电容谱(ECS))来表征凝集素-碳水化合物的结合是理想的,可用于评估特定的相互作用,例如,这里使用 ArtinM 凝集素和辣根过氧化物酶(HRP)糖蛋白作为蛋白质-碳水化合物结合亲和力的模型。成功地使用包含烷基二茂铁作为氧化还原探针和 ArtinM 作为碳水化合物受体中心以靶向 HRP 的电化学生分子膜来确定 ArtinM 和 HRP 之间的结合亲和力。通过 ECS 获得与烷基二茂铁中心相关的传导体信号的氧化还原电容,并将其用于 Langmuir 吸附模型中以获得亲和常数(1.6±0.6)×10(8) L mol(-1)。本文的结果表明,ECS 应用于凝集素糖阵列表征是可行的。
