AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing binding agents lack sufficient sensitivity and selectivity when detecting single monomeric amino acids, making it difficult to efficiently identify and specifically bind multiple amino acids or their derivatives.

Method used

A binding agent library containing various binding agents, such as antibodies, antibody fragments, and engineered scFv, was developed. This library can specifically recognize and bind to various amino acids or their derivatives. Affinity maturation was performed using methods such as yeast surface display and phage display. The binding agent library contains polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies, and detection was performed using ELISA, surface plasmon resonance, and biofilm interferometry.

Benefits of technology

It achieves highly specific and high-affinity binding to a variety of amino acids or their derivatives, and can recognize and bind to specific amino acids at low concentrations, thus improving the sensitivity and selectivity of detection.
