反応手順

Conjugates of BMAA with BSA or with HRP were prepared by activating, in the absence of BMAA, the carboxylic groups of BSA or HRP with EDC thereby forming BSA-EDC or HRP-EDC. This was followed by the coupling of the activated carboxylate groups on the carrier protein to the primary amino group of BMAA. The procedure was as follows: 50 mg of EDC and 5 mg of sulfo-NHS (Sulfo-N-hydroxysuccinimide) were added to 15 mg of BSA or HRP pre-dissolved in 5 ml of 10 mM KH2PO4, pH 5.0. The reaction mixture was stirred for 2-3 minutes, thereby forming BSA-EDC or HRP-EDC, followed by the addition of 5 mL of a 1% solution of BMAA in 0.2 M K2HPO4, pH 8.5. After the solution was stirred overnight, the conjugate (BSA-EDC-BMAA or HRP-EDC-BMAA) was dialyzed exhaustively against PBS-7.4 (0.14 M NaCl, 10 mM K2HPO4, pH 7.4) or TBS-8 (tris-buffered saline, pH 8). Conjugates were stored at ≦20° C. (20° C. or less) By this procedure the conjugate was formed by linkage of BMAA to the carrier protein predominantly via the glutamic and aspartic acid residues of the carrier protein.
