摘 要:摘 要:传统的蛋白质芯片制备需要进行繁琐的蛋白质表达与纯化。同时,由于蛋白质活性不稳定,蛋白质芯片不宜长期保存。新一代自组装蛋白质芯片,利用无细胞表达体系和DNA固定技术,能够将蛋白质即时、原位表达并固定在芯片上,有效地解决了传统蛋白质芯片的制备和保存问题。目前自组装蛋白质芯片已初步用于大规模蛋白-蛋白质相互作用的筛选,以及鉴定免疫优势抗原等研究。该文介绍了近年自组装蛋白质芯片技术的进展和应用研究。

Abstract: Abstract: Traditional protein microarrays require time-consuming processes of protein production and purification since the protein activities are not stable and the array products could not be stored properly for a long time. Self-assembling protein microarrays utilized cell-free expression system and DNA immobilization technique, which allowed multiple-protein expression simultaneously and in situ immobilization on the surface of arrays. This technology effectively overcomes the problems of traditional protein microarrays, and provides a useful tool for functional proteomics analysis. Currently, self-assembling protein microarrays are primarily used for screening protein-protein interactions, identifying immunodominant antigens and so on. This review focused on the recent advancement and application research on self-assembling protein microarrays.
