Cantilever Sensor for Nanomechanical Detection of Specific Protein Conformations

Abstract: A fast, label-free, and multiplexed method based on piezoresistive cantilevers is reported for the detection of specific protein conformations at the nanoscale level. The ligand-binding domain of the human oestrogen receptor (ERalpha-LBD) is used as the experimental model system, and ERalpha-LBD with or without oestradiol (E2) is detected using the conformation-specific peptides alpha/betaI (Ser-Ser-Asn-His-Gln-Ser-Ser-Arg-Leu-Ile-Glu-Leu-Leu-Ser-Arg, which recognizes E2-bound ER) and alpha/betaII (Ser-Ala-Pro… Show more

“…Each conformation is recognised by a unique combination of peptides, defining a specific peptide recognition pattern. We characterised ER and ER corformations induced by suspected environmental endocrine disruptors among pesticides (Sumbayev et al, 2005) and tested various nanotechnological assays based on peptide-receptor binding (Mukhopadyay et al, 2005;Hansen et al, 2007). Based on these data, it seems that peptide recognition patterns may serve as sensors of ER conformations.…”

“…They also provided a strong correlation between ligand induced ER conformations and their biological activities. 25 Previous studies using piezoresistive cantilevers, 26 electrochemical sensor, 27 and reflectometric interference spectroscopy 28 have successfully detected the ligand induced ER conformation change through specific peptide-probes.…”
