An ELISA system to study biomolecular interactions
EF 2006-07
Résumé
Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) is an important tool in studying interactions between molecules, for example proteins and their ligands. This assay provides information regarding the binding affinity between the molecules. It is proposed here that ELISA assays will be used to investigate interactions between the glycoconjugates and proteins that bind the carbohydrate moiety on these conjugates. The results to be obtained from these experiments will enable improving the properties of these glycoconjugates. The glycoconjugates under investigation are important in drug delivery and in tackling multiple-drug resistant bacteria.
