TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present invention relates to a cucurbituril derivative-bonded solid substrate, and more particularly, to a solid substrate covalently bonded with a cucurbituril derivative which can immobilize a biomaterial by a non-covalent interaction, and its applications.
BACKGROUND ART
[0002] After the human genome sequence was drafted in 2000, gene expression could be understood at mRNA level. Thereafter, developments of personalized medicines or diagnostic reagents based on Individual genome information have been anticipated. Therefore, there has arisen a need to rapidly trace the expression levels of a large number of genes. In this regard, there was developed a DNA chip capable of simultaneously performing assays of a thousand to ten thousand genes. However, a gene assay alone cannot provide information about proteins which are not only gene products but also biomaterials essential for biological activity. Therefore, there has been suggested a protein chip, a corresponding concept of a DNA chip, which can perform simultaneous assays of a large number of proteins.
[0003] Reference will now be made to FIGS. 1 and 2 of the accompanying diagrammatic drawings, in which FIG. 1 illustrates a protein chip; FIG. 2 illustrates degeneration of a protein; and FIG. 3 illustrates a cucurbituril derivative-covaient bonded solid substrate .
[0004] The concept of the protein chip is based on the protein microarrays which contain chemically or biochemically treated surfaces for specific interaction with proteins of interest. As illustrated in FIG. 1, in which 1 is a functional group for linkage with a solid substrate, 2 is a molecular body, 3 is a functional group for linkage with a biomaterial, and 4 is the solid substrate, a protein chip can be made as follows. First, a thin film is formed on a solid substrate 4 using compounds with functional groups 1 for linkages with the solid substrate 4 and another functional groups 3 for linkages with biomaterials such as proteins. Then, biomaterials such as proteins can be immobilized on the solid substrate 4 via chemical or physical interactions between biomaterial and the terminal functional group 3. FIG. 1 illustrates the solid substrate 4 having a thin film made of compounds with the functional groups 1 for linkages with the solid substrate 4 and the functional groups 3 for linkages with biomaterials such as proteins.
[0005] Hitherto, many researchers have used covalent bonds between the functional groups 3 of FIG. 1 and proteins to Immobilize the proteins on a solid substrate. When covalent bonds between the functional groups 3 of FIG. 1 and proteins are formed, the proteins can be immobilized on the surface of a solid substrate.
[0006] However, it is well-known that their specificities or activities toward substrates are seriously affected by the immobilization method, because the specificity and activity are strongly related to their specific three-dimensional structures and orientation of their active sites, referring to the following FIG. 2, in which 1 is a solid substrate, 5 is a linkage layer, 6 is a protein with a damaged active site, and 7 is a protein with a preserved active site. Therefore, the three-dimensional structures of proteins may be damaged when the proteins are covalently bonded to a solid substrate, thereby causing degeneration of the proteins, like a protein 6 of FIG. 2. This is because the function of proteins is dependent on their specific three-dimensional structures formed by chains of amino acids constituting the proteins. To maintain the function of a protein chip, like a protein 7 of FIG. 2, an active site must not be bonded to the linkage layer 5 to preserve the functionality of the active site.
[0007] To solve this problem, many methods have been developed for immobilizing proteins to a surface of a solid substrate via non-covalent bonds.
[0008] By way of an example, a study about the attachment of proteins to a solid substrate by a coordination bond was reported. Paborsky et al. suggested a coordination linkage between proteins fused with histidine, which is an amino acid known to well bind with Ni, Cu, etc., and a surface of a solid substrate to which Ni is attached by nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) [Paborsky, L. R.; Dunn, K. E.; Gibbs, C. S.; and Dougherty, J. P., Anal. Biochem. 1996, 234, pp. 60-65].
[0009] Frey et al. reported the attachment of an intermediate, such as polylysine, capable of ionically binding with proteins, to a solid substrate, to immobilize the proteins on the solid substrate [Frey, Brian L.; Jordan, Claire E.; Kornguth, Steven; and Corn, Robert M., Anal. Chem. 1995, 67, 4452-4457].
[0010] Recently, Tae-Sun Kim et al. reported a hydrogen bond between proteins and a solid substrate having crown ether derivatives, paying attention to a hydrogen bond between ammonium groups abundantly present at non-active sites of proteins and crown ether groups (Korean Patent Application Nos. 10-1999-0061074 and 10-2000-0038491).
[0011] However, the bond strength of most non-covalent bonds is much less than that of covalent bonds. Therefore, proteins having non-covalent bonds with a solid substrate may be detached from the solid substrate when contact with chemical materials used in immunoassay. In this regard, many attempts have been made to immobilize proteins on a solid substrate via stronger non-covalent bonds.
[0012] Recently, Yao and co-workers reported a solid substrate for a protein chip in which avidin, a type of protein, is immobilized on the solid substrate via a covalent bond [Lesaicherre, M.-L.; Lue, R. Y. P.; Chen, G. Y. J.; Zhu, Q.; and Yao, S. Q. J., Am. Chem. Soc. 2002,124, 8768]. Avidin is known to bind with four small molecules of biotin by a coupling constant of about 1015 M-1, which is the strongest non-covalent bond among currently known non-covalent bonds [Wilchek, M.; Bayer, E. A. Avidin-Biotin Technology. In Methods in Enzymology 1990,184]. According to the report by Yao et al., probe proteins are fused with biotin and then are immobilized on a solid substrate treated with avidin. Reportedly, the probe proteins are not detached from the solid substrate even under a very severe environment. However, this method has an economical limitation of avidin being costly, even though there is an advantage in that a coupling constant of avidin-biotin interaction is very large.
[0013] Therefore, a cost effective method for immobilizing proteins to a solid substrate using a non-covalent bond with strong interaction is required.
[0014] WO 2004/072151 (Article 54(3) EPC document) discloses a cucurbituril-bonded silica gel useful for removal of air pollutants or water contaminants, and separation and purification of biological, organic, inorganic, or ionic substances.
[0015] WO 2003/004500 discloses cucurbituril derivatives of specific formulations, having enhanced solubility in common solvents.

[0052] The present invention also provides a protein chip including the cucurbituril derivative-bonded solid substrate. Cucurbituril has carbonyl groups on the entrance of its cavity, and thus, can retain various ionic compounds such as organic cations and high polarity compounds by charge-polarity interactions, polarity-polarity interactions, or hydrogen bonds. In particular, cucurbituril is bonded to diaminoalkane salt by a coupling constant of about 106 M-1, which is smaller than that of avidin-biotin interaction but is larger than that of a common non-covalent bond such as a coordination bond or a hydrogen bond. Therefore, a protein chip including the cucurbituril derivative-bonded solid substrate has advantages such as low manufacturing costs, a strong coupling constant, and immobilization of proteins on a solid substrate without damage to active sites of the proteins.
[0053] In addition, the cucurbituril derivative-bonded solid substrate of the present invention is covalently bonded to genes or biomaterials, and thus, can be used in preparation of a gene chip and a sensor for biomaterial assay.
Effect of the Invention
[0054] As apparent from the above description, a cucurbituril derivative-bonded solid substrate according to the present invention enables immobilization of proteins on a surface of the solid substrate via a non-covalent bond with a very strong coupling constant Based on this property of the solid substrate, a protein chip with no damage to active sites of proteins can be prepared in a cost-effective manner.
[0055] FIG. 3 is a diagram that illustrates a cucurbituril derivative-covalent bonded solid substrate.

After the reaction terminated, the resultant gold substrate was sequentially washed with dimethylformamide, methanol, water, and acetone, and dried under a reduced pressure.
Example 9: Preparation of cucurbituril derivative-bonded solid substrate
[0065] A gold-deposited silicon wafer was washed with a piranha solution, sufficiently dried under a reduced pressure, and added in a 20 ml vial under a nitrogen atmosphere. Then, a 1 mM solution of 11-mercaptoundscanoic acid in ethanol was added thereto and incubated at room temperature to obtain a carboxyl-modified gold substrate. The gold substrate was immersed in 10 mL of anhydrous diemethylformamide under a nitrogen atmosphere, and 100 µℓ of N-methylmorpholine and 100 µℓ of ethylchloroformate were sequentially added thereto, followed by stirring for 24 hours. After the reaction terminated, the gold substrate was several times washed with diethylether and dried under a reduced pressure. 10 mL of anhydrous dimethylformamide was added to the gold substrate and 10 mL of 2-hydroxyethyloxycucurbit[6]uril of Formula 1 wherein R1 is a 2-hydroxyethyloxy group under a nitrogen atmosphere and stirred for 24 hours. After the reaction terminated, the gold substrate was sequentially washed with dimethylformamide, water, methanol, and acetone, and dried under a reduced pressure.
