Zusammenfassung: | Label-free protein detecting chip technology has encouraged a number of discoveries, as it is a powerful analytical tool in the postgenomic era. In particular, we have focused on a unique characteristic of anomalous reflection of gold (AR) as a new class of label-free detection method for a protein chip system. In this paper, in order to improve the sensitivity of detection of biomolecular interactions by the AR method, we have constructed three-dimensional (3D) nanostructures on gold surfaces with a series of well-defined structures of poly(amidoamine) dendrimers (PAMAMs) from generation 2 to 4 (G2, G3, and G4) tethering biotin moieties as capturing agents for avidin and antibiotin IgG. Comparison of features of such 3D nanostructured surfaces with a diamine-modified flat-like surface revealed a 2-fold increase in the amount of avidin for 3D surfaces relative to the flat surface, and surface-assisted nonspecific interactions were significantly suppressed. We thus obtained 91% coverage for avidin detection on the PAMAM G4-modified surface, indicating a theoretically maximum attainable absorption considering a hexagonal-packed arrangement as a saturated monomolecular layer. In the antibiotin IgG assay, the PAMAM G4-modified surface clearly improved the amount of proteins captured compared to that for the flat surface, indicating that an appropriate density of capturing agents played a more important role in the interaction of larger molecular-sized proteins such as antibiotin IgG, which requires more space for interaction than the medium-sized avidin. These findings should assist in the development of a simple and practical tool for high-throughput protein detection, particularly with the AR method |
