Antibody immobilization on a solid support is an essential process for the development of most immune-based assay systems. The choice method greatly affects antibody–antigen interactions surface. For past several years, numerous strategies have been reported to control antibody immobilization, mainly by directing orientation, stability, and density bound antibodies different platforms. Here we discuss recent developments in methods with particular focus strengths limitations approaches,...
Protein G is an antibody binding protein, which specifically targets the Fc region of antibody. It therefore has been widely used to immobilize different types antibodies in numerous immunoassays. Here, we have engineered Streptococcus protein contain various numbers cysteine residues at N-terminus and form well-oriented films on bare gold. SPR imaging analyses indicated that a gold surface treated with cysteine-tagged possesses superior ability compared one tag-free G. AFM images higher...
Two is better than one: short locked nucleic acid based probes were used to collectively capture and detect microRNAs by a simple two-temperature hybridization process. Intact directly measured down attomolar concentrations with high specificity nearly four orders of magnitude dynamic range. Single base mismatches in the potently discriminated from perfectly matched targets.
A versatile biolinker for efficient antibody immobilization was prepared by site-specific coupling of protein G to DNA oligonucleotide. This G−DNA conjugate ensures the controlled an intended area on surface bioassay chips or particles, while maintaining activity and orientation bound antibody. Streptococcus tagged with a cysteine residue at N-terminus chemically linked amine-modified, single-stranded DNA. SPR analysis indicated that conjugates sequence-specifically bind complementary...
Abstract Human ferritins are emerging platforms for non‐toxic protein‐based drug delivery, owing to their intrinsic or acquirable targeting abilities cancer cells and hollow cage structures loading. However, reliable strategies high‐level encapsulation within ferritin cavities prompt cellular release still lacking. Ferritin nanocages were developed with partially opened hydrophobic channels, which provide stable routes spontaneous highly accumulated loading of Fe II ‐conjugated drugs as well...
Abstract Supramolecular protein assemblies offer novel nanoscale architectures with molecular precision and unparalleled functional diversity.

Supersaturation, nucleation, and phase separation are ubiquitous phenomena of great interest in both science industry. However, a unified, quantitative understanding these has yet to be achieved for mesoscopic materials. Here, we present set general equations that determine the monomer saturation degree, size distribution free energy materials, as well their transition conditions. These reveal that, under supersaturation, largest cluster (LCS) is an important state-variable; supersaturation...
