Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Antibodies have become essential tool in the life technology fields and their applications as a high-sensitivity sensor are increasing. In this research, we have developed a novel sensor molecule named ‘Hybribody’ which consists of DNA (PCR product or plasmid), DNA-binding protein, and antibody (scFv). First, we established an efficient production scheme for fusion proteins of DNA-binding protein and scFv using E. coli expression systems with an N-teminal tag and chaperon co-expression. Bivalent antibody-DNA hybrid molecule, Hybribody, was formed by mixing with the purified proteins and DNA fragments.
