ABSTRACT:
The combination of the capabilities of stimuli-responsive components such as polymers and interactive molecules to form site-specific conjugates which are useful in a variety of assays, separations, processing, and other uses is disclosed. The polymer chain conformation and volume can be manipulated through alteration in pH, temperature, light, or other stimuli. The interactive molecules can be biomolecules like proteins or peptides, such as antibodies, receptors, or enzymes, polysaccharides or glycoproteins which specifically bind to ligands, or nucleic acids such as antisense, ribozymes, and aptamers, or ligands for organic or inorganic molecules in the environment or manufacturing processes. The stimuli-responsive polymers are coupled to the recognition biomolecules at a specific site so that the polymer can be manipulated by stimulation to alter ligand-biomolecule binding at an adjacent binding site, for example, the biotin binding site of streptavidin, the antigen-binding site of an antibody or the active, substrate-binding site of an enzyme. Binding may be completely blocked (i.e., the conjugate acts as an on-off switch) or partially blocked (i.e., the conjugate acts as a rheostat to partially block binding or to block binding only of larger ligands). Once a ligand is bound, it may also be ejected from the binding site by stimulating one (or more) conjugated polymers to cause ejection of the ligand and whatever is attached to it. Alternatively, selective partitioning, phase separation or precipitation of the polymer-conjugated biomolecule can be achieved through exposure of the stimulus-responsive component to an appropriate environmental stimulus.
