Abstract: | We have successfully fabricated a phenylboronic acid self-assembled layer on glassy carbon electrodes (GCE), where 3-aminophenylboronic acid (APBA) is covalently bound to the electrochemical pretreated GCE surface with glutaraldehyde linkage. The specific binding of glycoprotein peroxidase with the self-assembled layer has been studied using horseradish peroxidase (HRP) as a model glycoprotein. Cyclic voltammetric, electrochemical impedance studies and photometric activity assays show that the affinity interaction of HRP with the APBA modified GCE surface includes specific and nonspecific bonding. The specific binding is attributed to the boronic acid–diols interaction where the boronic acid specifically binds the glycosylation sites of the HRP. This specific binding is reversible and can be split by sorbitol and glucose or released in an acidic buffer. The catalytic current of the HRP-loaded electrode, due to the catalytic oxidation of thionine in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, is proportional to HRP concentrations of the incubation solution. This work offers a new way to build novel sensors by specific binding of glycoproteins to a boronic acid self-assembled layer for determination of glycated proteins. |
