The major objectives of the proposed research are: (1) the development of biocompatible sugar or polyol modified sol-gel precursors and new peptide functionalized bis-silanes that will provide tunable surface properties and controlled morphologies in silica materials along with good long-term stability for entrapped biomolecules; (2) the characterization of new materials that are derived from these precursors using advanced fluorescence (time resolved anisotropy, FRAP) and physical characterization methods (SEM, AFM, porosimetry); (3) the examination of the thermodynamic stability, accessibility, conformation, dynamics and long-term stabiity of a variety of intrinsically fluorescent and extrinsically labelled proteins and aptamers to comprehensively characterize correlations between protein function and sol-gel material properties and aging; (4) expansion of our sol-gel based microarray platform to include new applications based on membrane-bound proteins and DNA aptamers for nanovolume HTS and multianalyte biosensing; (5) further development of our sol-gel based bioaffinity chromatography and enzyme reactor columns and assays to integrate multidimensional LC and MALDI MS/MS platforms for small molecule screening and diagnostics and for biologically directed solid phase extraction using either proteins or aptamers. A major goal will be to apply these assay technologies to important biological targets, particularly kinases and GPCRs, where a significant impact on health research can be made.
