Creative BioMart can label the target protein by enzyme/antibody coupling. Our service aim is to provide high-quality protein labeling services for the research community through customized labeling services.
Figure 1. Enzymatic protein labeling techniques (Zhang, 2018)
We have constructed an enzyme coupling platform compatible with various enzymes and proteins/antibodies. The platform has high turnover, stability, easy coupling and relatively low cost. Through continuous improvement, the ratio of enzyme to protein/antibody analogs has reached about 1:1, which can maximize the retention of enzyme and carrier protein/antibody activity.
Here are a few of our commonly used enzymes and their advantages and disadvantages.
HRP is composed of several isoenzymes with a molecular weight of 40000 and an isoelectric point of pH 3-9. The suitable pH for enzyme catalysis is slightly different due to different hydrogen donors, but most of them are around pH 5.
HRP is suitable for rapid color reaction, and the OD450 value can reach about 1.8-2.5 in 5-10 minutes when adding substrate in ELISA.
AP marker is suitable for slow color reaction. The color time is about 4-8 hours, and the Yellow compounds formed by catalysis are stable, and suitable for quantitative detection of enzyme-promoted kinetics.
Enzyme | Strengths | Weakness | Detection Method | Application |
HRP | Substrate suitable for immunohistochemistry, 1:1 coupling | The level of endogenous enzymes in blood cells was high and the sensitivity of soluble substrate is low | Soluble-TMB | Immunoassay |
Insoluble- chloronaphthol DAB/cobalt | Immunohistochemistry, Western blot | |||
AP | The soluble substrate is good, suitable for Western blotting, and had hypersensitive substrate | Some tissues have endogenous enzymes, and the molecules connected are large | Soluble-PNPP | Immunoassay |
Insoluble-BCIP/NBT | Western blot | |||
β-galactosidase | The endogenous enzyme activity is low and the substrate is good | It is easy to inactivate and the linked molecules are large | Soluble-ONPG | Immunoassay |
Insoluble-BCIG | Western blotting, immunocytochemistry of blood samples |
