A hybrid functional biomolecular interface designed at a molecular size level is very effective at capturing an analyte with high sensitivity even if the interaction is very weak, as when detecting proteins with carbohydrate. We designed and processed a protein (lectin) recognition molecular interface taking the following points into consideration: (1) the height (molecular length) difference between the capturing and spacer molecules; (2) the ratio of capturing molecules in the recognition interface. When the height difference between the maltoside part (Concanavalin A (Con A) recognition group) and the OH group terminated spacer molecules exceeded (>(CH(2))(6)), the association rate constant (k(a)) became larger (k(a)(1/Ms): similar to 2.6 times) and the dissociation constant (K(D)) became much smaller (K(D)(M): 1.0 x 10(-6):,similar to 0.17 times) compared with the similar heights (lengths) of both molecular interfaces. With regard to maltoside density, a 100% maltoside monolayer was unsuitable for detecting Con A. We constructed a nanostructured recognition site with a maltoside part of 10%, which was the most suitable ratio for Con A detection. The binding interaction between Con A and the maltoside group was changed from monovalent binding to bivalent binding when the maltoside part was diluted in the recognition interface. From electrochemical measurements, even though there was a small amount of maltoside component on the suitable recognition monolayer, quality similar to that of 100% maltoside was observed.
