Embodiment 1
[0207] figure 2 Embodiments of methods for reversibly attaching biomolecules to silane-functionalized surfaces are shown. First, a substrate comprising a glass surface is treated by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) with a functionalized silane comprising a hydrophobic moiety. Cyclodextrins are used as host molecules, and functionalized primers are grafted onto the cyclodextrins by reacting with one or more azido groups of the cyclodextrins. The silanized surface is then contacted with a cyclodextrin-bonded primer such that the hydrophobic head of the silane forms a host-guest inclusion complex with the lumen of the cyclodextrin via reversible interactions. As a result, the primers are immobilized on the surface of the substrate. Following standard clustering and sequencing procedures, the cyclodextrins are dissociated from the surface by the addition of 1,8-octanediol, a molecule with greater affinity for the cyclodextrin lumen than the hydrophobic head of the functionalized...
Embodiment 2
[0209] In the first experiment, fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-functionalized cyclodextrins were reacted with norbornenesilane-functionalized surfaces at 50 °C for 30 min, followed by rinsing with different solvents. Methods for preparing such norbornene silane functionalized surfaces are described in detail in US Patent Application Serial No. 14 / 316,478, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
[0210] In this experiment, the standard norbornene silane [(5-bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-enyl)ethyl]trimethoxysilane was used to silanize with flow pool. The norbornene moiety is lipophilic and can function as a guest for cyclodextrins. According to molecular mechanical predictions obtained from the literature, only the bridging methylene group from norbornene will fit into the inner cavity of the cyclodextrin (binding free energy of about -2 kcal / mol). Other possible guests with more stable host-guest complexes can also be used, for example guests comprising plan...
