Cratylia floribunda seeds were ground and the clean crude saline extract was fractionated into albumin, globulin, prolamin, acidic and basic glutelin protein fractions. These protein fractions were examined for the presence of an endogenous lectin receptor by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, western blot, affinity chromatography on a Sepharose 4B-Cratylia floribunda (CFL) lectin column and kinetic analysis in real time by surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Prolamin was the richest protein fraction although very poor in haemagglutinating activity. Basic glutelin was far the less interesting fraction for lectin activity and protein content, even though this fraction contains considerable amounts of carbohydrates. Lectin was present in all protein... |

The anti-lipopolysaccharide factor ALF-Pm3 is a 98-residue protein identified in hemocytes from the black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon. It was expressed in Pichia pastoris from the constitutive glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase promoter as a folded and N-15 uniformly labeled rALF-Pm3 protein. Its 3D structure was established by NMR and consists of three alpha-helices packed against a four-stranded beta-sheet. The C-34-C-55 disulfide bond was shown to be essential for the structure stability. By using surface plasmon resonance, we demonstrated that rALF-Pm3 binds to LPS, lipid A and to OM(R)-174, a soluble analogue of lipid A. Biophysical studies of rALF-Pm3/LPS and rALF-Pm3/OM(R)-174 complexes indicated rather high molecular sized aggregates, which... |

The surface plasmon resonance phenomenon has been studied in a chalcogenide glass-based optical system. IR transmission properties of these materials combined to their high refractive indices lead to advantageous properties for sensing. In this study, numerical simulations have been carried out to investigate the potentialities of sulfide glass from the GeGaSbS system as a coupling prism material. Then, an angular modulation SPR biosensor has been set up in the Kretschmann-Raether arrangement. Experimental data are consistent with numerical calculation and the detection limit of the sensor is 3 x 10(-5) RIU. These preliminary results are promising. Further investigations have to be carried out to confirm the great potentialities of those materials for... |

Among marine algae species, Alexandrium minutum produces a phycotoxin called paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) that is introduced in the food chain through the ingestion of phytoplankton by shellfishs, and later by human consumers. Thus, in situ monitoring of A. minutum proliferation in coastal seawater is of great economical importance for marine resources exploitation. Here, we propose a rapid test for the detection of A. minutum by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy. First, whole genomic DNA is extracted from the algae. Second, a 677 bp long portion of the 28S ribosomal DNA is amplified by PCR. Third, the PCR product is detected by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy onto a DNA functionalized gold substrate. |
