Newest firstMaximizing the binding properties of thermoresponsive molecularly imprinted nanoparticles (MIN) was aimed to explore their feasibility as antibody substitutes in protein immunoprecipitation (IPP) with magnetic streptavidin beads (MSB). Thermoresponsive MIN targeting the cannabinoid CB1 receptor were produced by epitope imprinting through solid-phase synthesis. It was intended to determine how different variables i…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Replacement of radioligand binding assays with antibody-antigen interaction-based approaches for quantitative analysis of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) levels requires the use of purified protein standards containing the antigen. GPCRs in general and cannabinoid CB1 receptor in particular show a progressive tendency to aggregate and precipitate in aqueous solution outside of their biological context…
The production of artificial anti-CB1 antibodies in nanoparticle format is described using the solid-phase imprinting approach. Instead of whole protein imprinting, a linear C-terminus sequence of the receptor comprising 15 amino acids (458-KVTMSVSTDTSAEAL-472) has been used as template, in accordance with the epitope imprinting approach. This sequence is located intracellularly, and it is involved in coupling to…
