Hooking horseradish peroxidase by using the affinity Langmuir-Blodgett technique for an oriented immobilization
A novel method of oriented immobilization was presented: affinity Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique. Firstly, a long carbon chain was bond to a ligand of Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP). The ligand derivative appears surface activity with the hydrophobic carbon chain oriented to air and the hydrophilic ligand faced to water. Then, this derivative was put onto the water/air surface to assemble a LB film and formed the affinity interaction with the active site of HRP. After that, the affinity LB film with the enzyme was transferred onto the support to obtain the oriented immobilized HRP. The specific activity of HRP immobilized by affinity LB (182.1 +/- 14 U/mg) was higher than that by adsorption (40.5 +/- 5 U/mg). HRP immobilized by affinity LB could maintain a more native conformation, compared to that by adsorption. This method could be effectively used to immobilize protein with orientation and show widely promising applications in many fields including biosensor and bioreactor. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.
