A novel pre‐chip fluorescent derivatization method is presented for protein sizing and quantification by microchip CGE. The derivatization reaction employed a water‐soluble and stable fluorescent dye and was performed under conditions that favored the formation of homogeneous reaction products. The method delivered in terms of protein sizing similar results as microchip CGE with on‐chip staining but showed an extended linear dynamic range for protein quantification encompassing four orders of magnitude. The sensitivity of the method was similar to standard silver‐stained planar gels. The characterization of derivatization reaction products by MS and preparative isoelectric focusing indicated that a constant degree of dye molecule tagging was obtained over a broad range of protein/dye ratios. The method allowed detecting and quantifying an impurity spiked into an antibody preparation down to a level of 0.05%. Advantages of this method compared with CGE approaches with pre‐column derivatization include a shorter analysis time and an increased robustness and ease of use.  相似文献

2,3-Diphenylquinolizinium bromide (2,3-DPQ) is proposed as a fluorogenic reagent for amino compounds. A spectrofluorimetric method based on its use is described which allows the determination of μg ml?1 to ng ml?1 levels of primary and secondary amines, including aromatic and cyclic compounds. The precision of the method was 4–8% (relative standard deviation) (n=10). The influence of several external factors on the derivatization reaction was studied using piperidine as a model compound. The analytical reaction can be effected at room temperature, which avoids the degradation of labile sample amines, e.g., catecholamines, and simplifies the experimental procedure. The presence of an excess of a basic catalyst (triethylamine) was critical for the reaction to develop satisfactorily. Fluorescence due to the reaction product was detected 5 min after the start of the analytical reaction.  相似文献

The discovery and use of fluorescent proteins has revolutionized cellular biology. Despite the widespread use of visible fluorescent proteins as reporters and sensors in cellular environments the versatile photophysics of fluorescent proteins is still subject to intense research. Understanding the details of the photophysics of these reporters is essential for accurate interpretation of the biological and biochemical processes illuminated by fluorescent proteins. Some aspects of the complex photophysics of fluorescent proteins can only be observed and understood at the single-molecule level, which removes averaging inherent to ensemble studies. In this paper we review how single-molecule emission detection has helped understanding of the complex photophysics of fluorescent proteins.

Here, we introduce isatoic anhydride as a sensitive and commodious fluorescent prelabel for detection of proteins in one‐dimensional polyacrylamide gels. High reactivity of isatoic anhydride with nucleophiles in mild alkaline environments makes it an appropriate tag for labeling of biomolecules. In this study, we show that preelectrophoresis labeling of proteins with isatoic anhydride for few minutes at room temperature allows detection of 2–4 ng of standard proteins, BSA and lysozyme, per band. Proteins were successfully labeled in the presence of a wide range of common biological reagents and in crude cell extract. The labeled proteins have the same electrophoretic migration in comparison to unlabeled proteins; however the application of saturation labeling method results in slight band broadening. Compatibility of the method with downstream processes was assessed by tryptic digestion of labeled proteins and study of peptide mixture using gel electrophoresis which revealed partial digestion of labeled proteins due to lysine modification. The present procedure is sensitive, rapid, and inexpensive and is a promising alternative for current protein staining procedures, where downstream processes are not desired.  相似文献

A new method based on solid-support reaction is described to realize fluorescent derivatization of proteins at concentrations as low as 10−8 M. A simple, low-cost homemade capillary C18 cartridge was fabricated as the solid-support reactor. Using bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a test protein, we demonstrated that the protein can be captured by this reactor and then labeled by fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC, isomer I) on solid-support. Unwanted fluorescent intruder (excrescent FITC and products of secondary reactions) were removed from target easily. The analysis by nano-HPLC with laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection was described. The effect of reaction conditions on the derivatization has been evaluated and discussed. The use of the solid-support reactor allows easy handling of as little as 8.5 pmol of BSA. A fraction from weak anion-exchange chromatography (WAX) of human liver extract was used as an illustrative example of application to real samples.  相似文献

Atrazine (Atr) was conjugated to mastoparan (Mast) cytolytic peptide; Mast-Atr derivative was used as cytolytic agent on liposomes trapping Tb/citrate complex. This was applied in a time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay for detection of Atr in water. The cytolytic activity was read by means of time-resolved fluorescence after adding an excess of dipicolinic acid (DPA). Tb/citrate-entrapping liposomes are easy to prepare, and the assay is carried out in a short incubation time and in a range between 10 pg and 100 ng. The procedure was applied to analyse samples taken from Adda River and from irrigation ditches in an agricultural area around the town of Lodi. Recovery in samples spiked with two different Atr concentrations was between 95 and 105%.  相似文献

The analysis of glycoprotein isoforms is of high interest in the biomedical field and clinical chemistry. Many studies have demonstrated that some glycoprotein isoforms could serve as biomarkers for several major diseases, such as cancers and vascular diseases, among others. Capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) is a well-established technique to separate glycoprotein isoforms, however, it suffers from limited sensitivity when UV-Vis detection is used. On the other hand, with laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection, derivatization reaction to render the proteins fluorescent can destroy the resolution of the isoforms. In this work, a derivatization procedure through the thiol groups of glycoproteins using either 5-(iodoacetamide) fluorescein (5-IAF) or BODIPY iodoacetamide is presented with the model protein of alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP). The derivatization process presented enabled high-resolution analysis of AGP isoforms by CZE-LIF. The derivatization procedure was successfully applied to label AGP from samples of serum and secretome of artery tissue, enabling the separation of the AGP isoforms by CE-LIF in natural samples at different concentration levels.  相似文献

We present a selective method for simultaneous determination of five polyether ionophores such as salinomycin (SAL), monensin (MON), narasin (NAR), semduramicin (SEM) and lasalocid (LAS) in aquatic samples using a liquid chromatography with one-step fluorescent derivatization of 2-(4-hydrazinocarbonyl-phenyl) 4,5-diphenylimidazole (HCPI) and 4-(4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl) benzoyl chloride hydrochloride (DIB-Cl). Fluorescent one-step derivatization for SAL, MON, NAR and SEM using HCPI and for LAS using DIB-Cl was monitored by an LC/fluorescence detector (E(x), 340 nm; E(m), 465 nm). Chromatographic separation was performed on a TSK-GEL ODS-120T (4.6 × 150 mm, 3 μm) column using a mobile phase of 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile and 0.5 mM ammonium formate in water (70/30, v/v). The limits of detections were 0.01 μg/mL (50 pg) for LAS, 0.05 μg/mL (250 pg) for SAL, NAR and SEM, and 0.1 μg/mL (500 pg) for MON, respectively. The recoveries for water samples were indicated to be the range of 79.6 ± 6.4 - 99.0 ± 4.4% with associated precision values (between-day for 3 days) for repeatability. Based on solid-phase extraction, the limit of quantitation values indicated 0.1 ng/mL for SAL, MON, NAR and SEM, and 0.01 ng/mL for LAS in water samples.  相似文献

A fully automated amino acid analyzer using NBD-F (4- fluoro-7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole) as a fluorescent derivatization reagent was developed. The whole analytical process was fully automated from derivatization, injection to HPLC separation and quantitation. The derivatization reaction conditions were re-evaluated and optimized. Amino acids were derivatized by NBD-F for 40 min at room temperature in the borate buffer (pH 9.5). The derivatives were separated within 100 min and fluorometrically detected at 540 nm with excitation at 470 nm. The detection limits for amino acids were in the range of 2.8-20 fmol. The calibration curves were linear over the range of 20 fmol to 20 pmol on column with the correlation coefficients of 0.999. The coefficients of variation were less than 5% at 3 pmol injection for all amino acids. Amino acids in rat plasma were determined by the proposed HPLC method.  相似文献

The factors affecting the yield of high-mass molecules by matrix-assisted ultraviolet laser volatilization are examined in a simple model. The key material factors appear to be a low heat of sublimation, subcritical concentration of the guest molecules and a high irradiance input in a short time compared to the sublimation induction period. The model is homogeneous in that the energy density is taken to be uniform within the ‘hot region’ of the matrix. The two competing effects are the rates of energy transfer from the matrix to the guest molecules and the desorption by sublimation. It is the bottleneck for energy transfer to the embedded guest molecules that makes their energy content lag behind that of the matrix. This is particularly the case for an initially cold sample. When a sufficiently high rate of sublimation can be achieved (e.g., using a high-power laser), the guest molecules (or adduct ions) will desorb internally cold and will thus not fragment. Numerical simulations of the sublimation kinetics using realistic laser and material parameters support the conclusions and delineate the ranges of the critical factors.  相似文献

This work describes the successful micropatterning of hybrid systems consisting of hydrogel-dispersed optically active and controllable proteins on solid surfaces without degradation of the photophysical properties of the light-emitting biomolecules. It demonstrates the preservation of the luminescence properties of proteins entrapped into isolated microstructures of poly(acrylamide) gel. This way we can exploit both the structural and function-preserving properties of the hydrogels and the functionality of light-emitting proteins. We believe that this approach can open the way to the realization of nanopatterned optical memories based on photochromic biomolecules.  相似文献

New fluorescent chiral derivatization reagents (i.e., DBD-trans-4-hydroxy-l-proline, DBD-cis-4-hydroxy-l-proline, DBD-cis-4-hydroxy-d-proline, and DBD-trans-3-hydroxy-l-proline) were synthesized from the reaction of 4-(N,N-dimethylaminosulfonyl)-7-fluoro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole with corresponding hydroxy-prolines. These reagents reacted with chiral amine to produce a couple of diastereomers. The labeling efficiently proceeded in the presence of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide and pyridine as the activation reagents. The reaction conditions are mild and no racemization occurred during both the reagent synthesis and the diastereomer formation (<0.4%). The resulting diastereomers fluoresce at around 560 nm (excitation at around 450 nm). Good linearity of the calibration curves was obtained in the range of 1-75 pmol and the detection limits on chromatogram were less than 1 pmol. The separability of the diastereomers was evaluated in terms of separation factor (α) and resolution value (Rs). DBD-trans-4-hydroxy-l-proline was efficient for the resolution of dl-phenylalanine methylester; while DBD-cis-4-hydroxy-d(or l)-proline was excellent for the separation of 1-(1-naphtyl)ethylamines, as comparing with trans-4-hydroxy isomer. The reagents of cis-isomer seemed to be predominant for the resolution of hydrophobic enantiomers. On the other hand, trans-isomers were suitable for the separation of the racemic amines containing ester in the structure. With respect to the position of OH group, the effect seems to be less, judging from the results of DBD-trans-4-hydroxy-l-proline and DBD-trans-3-hydroxy-l-proline toward phenylalanine methylester. The results suggest that the separation is dependent upon both structures of the amines and the reagent used. Thus, the stereostructure, hydrophobicity and hydrogen bonding of the diastereomer, etc. seem to be affecting the separation.  相似文献

Resonance enhancement of two-photon absorption in fluorescent proteins   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
We measure two-photon absorption (2PA) spectra of wild-type green fluorescent protein, cyan fluorescent protein, and monomeric red fluorescent protein in absolute cross section values in a wide spectral range (lambda2PA = 550 - 1300 nm), and find, for the first time to our knowledge, a new S0 --> Sn 2PA transition in all three proteins in the short-wavelength region. This transition is strongly resonantly enhanced, showing 2PA cross section values of approximately 20-160 GM, which are at least 2-4 times higher than those measured in the lowest energy (S0 --> S1) transition of corresponding proteins. We also show that the change of permanent dipole moment upon S0 --> S1 excitation (|Deltamu10|) can be deduced from 2PA cross section, providing a new tool for fast evaluation of |Deltamu10| in physiological conditions.  相似文献

A liquid chromatographic (LC) derivatization method for simple and selective determination of catecholamines and indoleamines in human urine has been developed. This method uses "fluorous interaction" in which perfluoroalkyl compounds show affinity with each other. The amino groups of native fluorescent analytes are precolumn derivatized with a non-fluorescent fluorous isocyanate, 2-(perfluorooctyl)ethyl isocyanate, and the fluorous-labeled analytes are retained in the fluorous LC column, whereas underivatized substances are not. Only the retained fluorous-fluorescent analytes are detected fluorometrically at appropriate retention times, and retained amines without fluorophores are not detected. In this study, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine, and metanephrine were used as the representative of catecholamines. Tryptophan, 5-hydroxytryptophan, and 5-hydroxytryptamine were used as the representative indoleamines. This method was applied to determine eight biogenic amines in urine from healthy humans. The fluorous-labeled amines could be separated by fluorous LC column under conditions of isocratic elution within 35 min and simultaneously determined without interference from contaminants in biological samples. The detection limits for eight biogenic amines were 31-640 fmol on column. Calibration curves of them were linear over the range of at least 10-100 nmol/mL urine (r2 > 0.9989) with good repeatability.  相似文献

A simple and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method is proposed for the analysis of some carboxylic acids in food samples and the environment. The use of 9-chloromethyl anthracene as a fluorescence-labeling reagent has been investigated. The derivatization reagent reacts with unitary carboxylic acids and tetrabutylammonium bromide as a catalyst within 50 min in acetonitrile to give esters, which can be separated by HPLC employing fluorescence detection at λ(ex) = 365 and λ(em) = 410 nm. The optimum conditions for derivatization, fluorescence detection and chromatographic separation are established. The method shows good sensitivity, with a detection limit from 0.18 to 2.53 pmol, and good linearity between 1-250 nmol/mL of each analyte. The practical applicability of the method was demonstrated by analyzing samples that were spiked with the acid standards, environment and food samples.  相似文献

Due to the considerable stability of green fluorescent proteins and their capacity to be readily permutated or mutated, they may be exploited in multiple ways to enhance the functionality of in vitro biosensors. Many possibilities, such as the formation of chimeras with other proteins or antibodies, as well as Förster resonance emission transfer performance, may be used for the highly sensitive and specific detection of the target molecules. This review considers the great potential of green fluorescent proteins as the fluorescent probing or recognition biomolecule in various in vitro biosensors applications, as well as obstacles associated with their use.  相似文献

A new method to screen antibiotic combinations is demonstrated,which takes advantage of the logic-signal output of genetically engineered drug-resistant E.coli strains expressing different fluorescent proteins.Thirty-six antibiotic combinations for nine antibiotics were investigated.The operation of different logic gates can reveal the susceptibility,resistance,or synergistic effect of the antibiotic combinations in a rapid(7–8 h versus 24–28 h for typical growth-based assays),simple,quantitative and high-throughput manner.This logic-signal-based output patterns provide the basis for novel and reliable screening of antibiotic combinations and help us to both gain insight into the mechanisms of multi-drug action.  相似文献
