It was found that by using a coexisting reagent as an immunoassay reagent and bringing it into contact with a specimen, the binding and washing steps generally required for immunoassay methods can be omitted.
- the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof and the antigen are bound via a linker, and the entire component is prepared as a single molecule fusion protein by using a fluorescent protein as a fluorescent substance. The inventors found that it is possible to visualize foreign antigens and completed the present invention.
- the present invention relates to an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof, a first fluorescent substance bound to the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof, and an antigen-antibody reaction with the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof.
- An immunoassay reagent comprising an antigen and a second fluorescent substance bound to the antigen, wherein the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof and the antigen are linked to each other to form one molecule, and the antibody
- the present invention provides an immunoassay reagent in which fluorescence resonance energy transfer occurs between the first and second fluorescent substances when an antigen-antibody reaction occurs between the antigen-binding fragment thereof and the antigen.
- the present invention also includes a step of bringing the immunoassay reagent of the present invention into contact with a test sample that may contain a test substance that competes with the antigen, and fluorescence resonance energy transfer of the immunoassay reagent at that time
- a method for measuring the test substance in the test sample using the change in efficiency of the test as an index is provided.
- the present invention provides a method for imaging a test substance present in a cell, which comprises contacting the reagent for immunoassay of the present invention with a test substance that competes with the antigen contained in the cell.
- the present invention while maintaining the high sensitivity of an immunoassay method using an antigen-antibody reaction, a washing step generally required in such an immunoassay method is eliminated.
- an immunoassay reagent that enables a rapid and simple immunoassay has been provided.
- the present invention provides for the first time an immunoassay reagent capable of visualizing a foreign antigen in a living cell using antibody specificity, which has been impossible until now.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic view of the structure of an immunoassay reagent constructed in an example of the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a gene map of a nucleic acid encoding an immunoassay reagent prepared in an example of the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is a fluorescence spectrum of a reaction mixture prepared in Example of the present invention when reagent KCS-03 is brought into contact with FLAG peptide to cause competition.
- the immunoassay reagent of the present invention binds a fluorescent substance that causes FRET to each of an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof and an antigen that reacts with the antibody or the antigen-binding fragment thereof.
- the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof and the antigen are linked together to form a molecule, and may preferably be constructed as a molecule by binding via an appropriate linker. ! / ⁇ . In the state in which binding due to an antigen-antibody reaction occurs between the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof and the antigen, FRET occurs between the fluorescent substances bound to each antigen.
- the antibody or antigen-binding fragments thereof bind to the test substance by antigen-antibody reaction. Since the test substance is not fluorescently labeled, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof bound to the test substance does not produce FRET. The proportion of the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof that binds to the test substance increases as the amount of the test substance in the test sample increases. For this reason, by observing how the FRET efficiency changes when the immunoassay reagent of the present invention is brought into contact with the test sample, the presence or absence of the test substance in the test sample and its presence are observed. The amount can be measured.
- the antibody used in the present invention or an antigen-binding fragment thereof may be a Fab fragment or F () having binding properties to the antibody molecule itself and the corresponding antigen. ab ')
- antigen-binding fragments include artificial single-chain antibodies such as ScFV (single chain fragment of variable region) constructed by linking the variable regions of the L and H chains of the antibody, for example.
- Single chain antibodies are preferred because they can be expressed in cells other than mammalian animals such as prokaryotic cells such as E. coli and plant cells.
- the production method of a single chain antibody such as ScFV itself is well known, and is also described in the following examples.
- the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof used in the present invention is not limited as long as it retains the binding property by the antigen-antibody reaction with the antigen described later. It is not limited to fragments. Since the reagent for immunoassay of the present invention performs immunoassay based on the competition method, the antibody used and the like reacts with the test substance by antigen-antibody reaction.
- the antigen used in the present invention undergoes an antigen-antibody reaction with the above-described antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof, and the antigen molecule itself that can be used as an immunogen for inducing the production of the antibody, an antigenic determinant. Includes retained antigen fragments and non-immunogenic haptens. Furthermore, the antigen used in the present invention is not limited to an immunogen or a fragment thereof that induces the production of the antibody as long as it retains the binding property of the corresponding antibody by the antigen-antibody reaction. It may cross-react with the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof.
- FRET itself is well known, and donors and acceptors for FRET Are commercially available.
- a donor and an acceptor any combination can be used as long as FRET occurs between the donor and acceptor, and the donor and acceptor can be freely selected on the basis of information such as literature or commercially available products.
- CFP CFP
- cyan fluorescent protein ⁇ YFP
- yellow fluorescent protein ⁇ GFP
- BFP blue fluorescent protein
- a suitable fluorescent protein can be preferably used. Note that FRET between CFP-YFP, GFP-BFP, and FRET between these variants are widely known, and these fluorescent proteins are also commercially available.

Abstract
Réactif pour dosage immunologique, rapide et pratique, permettant de faire l'économie de l'opération de lavage généralement requise par ce type de dosage. A cette fin, on utilise un réactif pour essai immunologique contenant un anticorps ou un fragment de liaison à l'antigène de l'anticorps appelé à être utilisé dans le dosage conjointement avec un antigène à analyser qui sont liés respectivement là des substances fluorescentes en relation FRET (fluorescence de transfert de l'énergie de résonance) l'une par rapport à l'autre. Lorsque l'on met le réactif en contact avec un spécimen, on peut sauter les opérations de liaison et de lavage normalement requises. De plus, l'anticorps ou un fragment de liaison à l'antigène de cet anticorps est lié à l'antigène via un lieur, des protéines fluorescentes sont utilisées comme substances fluorescentes et la totalité des éléments constitutifs est généralement réunie sous la forme d'une protéine fusionnée en tant que molécule unique. Il est ainsi possible de visionner un antigène étranger dans une cellule.
