Lectin based open tubular micro-reactors for probing protein-protein binding

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project seeks to develop non-invasive technology for the measurement and quantitation of lectin-carbohydrate binding events, in the first instance glycopeptides and glycoproteins. The goal is not only to provide accurate protein-protein association and dissociation constant data within the developed system, but to do so within an enclosed micro-fluidic environment, with the added advantages of also providing ‘trap and release’ extraction capabilities, and being easily coupled to both chromatographic and mass spectrometry systems.
