Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have produced the single-chain antibody (scFv) fused protein that recognizes a kind of advanced glycation end-product (AGE), GA-pyridine, and conducted research on development of in vivo imaging method for AGE localization in the body. The mutant scFv clones that exhibited higher affinity for antigen and thermal stability have been obtained using a combination of a phage display system and random mutagenesis. In order to improve stability and retentivity of the scFvs in blood, the scFv/human serum albumin (HSA) fused protein have been prepared by using transpeptidase Sortase A and consequently the improvement was confirmed in animal experiments. We have prepared scFv containing lanthanoid binding peptide (LBP) and tried to introduce lanthanoid ion usable for time-resolution fluorescent measurement in LBP, however could not observe fluorescence. Currently, we are carrying out introduction of fluorescent substance by click chemistry.
