Enhanced detection sensitivity using a novel solid-phase incorporated affinity fluorescent protein biosensor

We engineered green fluorescent protein (GFP) into affinity fluorescent proteins (aFPs) biosensors. The aFPs detect protein–protein interactions by enhanced fluorescence intensity. In a proof of principle demonstration, aFPs containing haemagglutinin (HA) tag bind specifically to the anti-HA antibod...

Zusammenfassung:We engineered green fluorescent protein (GFP) into affinity fluorescent proteins (aFPs) biosensors. The aFPs detect protein–protein interactions by enhanced fluorescence intensity. In a proof of principle demonstration, aFPs containing haemagglutinin (HA) tag bind specifically to the anti-HA antibody. The sensitivity and specificity is enhanced 28-fold by incorporation of aFPs into solid-phase surface.
