Molecular engineering of biotin–glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 fusion protein (Biotin–GAD65) for non-radioactive GAD65 antibody assay

We constructed biotinylated fusion proteins that linked to three detection tags to GAD65 at the N-terminus, and expressed them in an E. coli expression system. The Biotin14–GAD65 protein exhibited the strongest binding to both the GAD65 antibody and the streptavidin among the three constructs. We de...

Zusammenfassung:We constructed biotinylated fusion proteins that linked to three detection tags to GAD65 at the N-terminus, and expressed them in an E. coli expression system. The Biotin14–GAD65 protein exhibited the strongest binding to both the GAD65 antibody and the streptavidin among the three constructs. We describe the optimal conditions using a Biotin14–GAD65-based immunoassay for the detection of GAD65 antibody.
