Abstract

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for assaying the 5-enolpyruvyshikimate-3-phosphate synthase from Agribacterium sp. CP4 (CP4 EPSPS) in genetically modified soybeans was developed. Polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies (Pab, Mab) specific to the CP4 EPSPS were produced. When using the Pab, the detection limit of sandwich ELISA toward CP4 EPSPS (0.03 ${\mu}g/mL$) was better than that of competitive indirect ELISA(ciELISA) (1 ${\mu}g/mL$). It was found that 2 of 3 monoclonal antibodies, Mab1 and Mab2, recognized the same antigenic determinant on CP4 EPSPS, but Mab3 recognized different antigenic determinant when competitive ELISA was performed using the Mabs. On the other hand, when the sensitivity of sandwich ELISA using combination of Pab and/or Mabs was determined, the sandiwich ELISA using Mab2 as a capture antibody and Pab-HRP as a secondary antibody showed the lowest detection limit of CP4 EPSPS (0.02 ${\mu}g/mL$). The sandwich ELISA developed in this study could be applied to detect glyphosate-tolerant soybeans.

유전자재조합 콩의 Agrobacterium sp. CP4 유래 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase(CP4 EPSPS)를 편리하고 경제적으로 검출하고자 효소면역측정법(enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, ELISA)을 개발하였다. CP4 EPSPS에 대해 특이적인 다클론 및 단클론항체를 생산하였다. 다클론 항체의 경우 sandwich ELISA(검출한계, 0.03${\mu}g/mL$)는 competitive indirect ELISA(1${\mu}/mLg$)보다 CP4 EPSPS의 검출감도가 낮았다. 생산된 단클론항체 3종의 CP4 EPSPS에 대한 인식부위는 Mab1과 Mab2는 서로 같은 부위를 Mab3는 다른 부위를 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 다클론항체 및 단클론항체를 조합하여 실시한 sandwich ELISA의 검출감도를 서로 비교하였다. 그 결과, 항원 포획단계에서 단클론항체 Mab2를 코팅하고 다클론항체-horseradish peroxidase(HRP) conjugate를 사용하였을 때 가장 양호한 검출감도(검출한계, 0.02${\mu}g/mL$)를 나타내었다. 본 연구에서 개발한 sandwich ELISA는 제초제 저항성 유전자재조합 콩의 분석에 적용가능할 것으로 생각된다.
