SPR & BLI: Analysis Platforms for Protein Binding Activity
Ensuring the Quality of your Proteins from Start to Finish

INTRODUCTION
The quality control of recombinant protein products requires rigorous and detailed testing of structural, physical, and chemical properties, followed by biological activity validation of protein binding and functional ability.
One of the most common methods to detect protein-protein interactions and binding activity is Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) due, in part, to its cost-effectiveness and ease of use. However, using ELISA for bioactivity testing has several limitations, including: 1) its dependence on secondary antibodies and enzyme amplification effects makes it difficult to obtain accurate results when detecting the proteins with a similar label or weak activity. 2) ELISA is an end-point detection method and cannot be used to detect protein binding dynamics.
An important parameter in determining intermolecular interactions is affinity. Determining the affinity is crucial for understanding molecules and identifying biological processes, drug discovery, screening, etc. The evaluation of drug efficacy, the stability of biomacromolecules, and their complexes require comprehensive studies to explore dynamics of molecular mechanics, thermodynamics, thermal stability,
Including intermolecular binding, speed, strength, and the mechanism of binding.
ACROBiosystems is focused on our customers' needs when designing products. Our team always prioritizes customers' experimental application in protein product quality control, reasonable design of quality control programs and standards. Therefore we adopted advanced surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and biofilm interferometry (BLI) platforms to detect proteins' activity and affinity (where applicable). These platforms work as a production-quality control testing project to ensure that all of the protein products can meet the various applications of antibody-drug development.
Technical principles & advantages

Surface Plasmon Resonance(SPR)

Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) works via an incident light striking the interface of two media with different refractive indexes at a critical angle which may cause metal free-electron resonance. Due to this resonance, the electrons absorb the light energy, which greatly weakens the reflection light at a certain angle. The angle of incidence that makes the reflected light disappear completely within a certain angle is called the SPR angle. The range of SPR varies with the refractive index of the surface, which is in turn proportional to the mass of biomolecules bound to the metal surface. Therefore, the dynamic changes of SPR angle in biological reactions can be obtained by specific signals of the interaction between biomolecules.

Technical advantages:
Label-free detection
High sensitivity
Can measure a wide range of affinity
Real-time monitoring, accurate data analysis

SPR has high sensitivity, and a wide detection range can be applied to the level below μ M. The response signal is very low or pM level ultra-high affinity detection (Figure 3-A &B).

Fig 3-B Human CD32a Protein, Strep Tag (Cat. No. CDA-H5284) immobilized on CM5 Chip can bind Rituximab with an affinity constant of 1.47 μM as determined in a SPR assay.            

Biofilm Interference Technology (BLI)

Biofilm Interference Technology (BLI) can achieve real-time monitoring of intermolecular interactions with biosensors. After light passes through the biofilm layer of the sensor, transmission and reflection will occur; the frequency of reflected light is affected by the thickness of the biofilm. Some frequencies of reflected light interfere constructively with the incident light, while others interfere destructively. The spectrometer detects these interference light waves and forms an interference spectrum, which is displayed as the interference spectrum's relative displacement intensity (nm). Therefore, once the number of molecules bound to the sensor surface increases or decreases, the spectrometer will detect the displacement of the interference spectrum in real-time. This displacement directly reflects the thickness of the biosensor surface.

Technical advantages:
Label-free detection
High detection throughput and high sensitivity
No pretreatment is required for samples
Real-time monitoring, semi-automatic detection, can provide accurate dynamic data

BLI has no special requirements for sample buffer, eliminating the sample pretreatment. The overall testing time is relatively short, which can respond to customer needs faster and simultaneously test multiple data (Figure 6).

The SPR and BLI platforms have different principles and have their advantages in detecting intermolecular forces. In general, SPR and BLI are label-independent and highly sensitive. They provide high-quality kinetic, affinity, specificity, and selectivity data for real-time monitoring of protein binding and dissociation. It can be used for detailed analysis of biomolecular interactions, ranging from quest for early drugs to development of quality control.
ACRO uses both platforms in concert, depending on the protein types and attributes. Our team can choose a single or two platforms quickly and effectively for activity verification.
