Sugar chain array

摘要

A sugar chain array containing a sugar chain immobilized thereon for detecting binding between an analyte and a sugar chain, and a sugar chain array having the sugar chain immobilized thereon that is capable of inhibiting non-specific adsorption and binding of an analyte without having to coat the array with an adsorption inhibitor. A specific sugar chain is immobilized on the array, and is useful for detecting binding between the sugar chain and an analyte, such as a pathogen of an infectious disease or an excretion thereof. In addition, in the array, when a base material is coated with a polymeric compound having a unit having a primary amino group, a unit for maintaining hydrophilicity, and a unit having a hydrophobic group, the sugar chain is immobilized efficiently and non-specific adsorption and binding of the analyte can be effectively inhibited.

1. A sugar chain array, comprising: a base material comprising a cyclic polyolefin polymer; and at least one sugar chain selected from the group consisting of sugar chains from Tables 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6:
{Table 1} {Table 2} {Table 3} {Table 4} {Table 5} {Table 6}; wherein the sugar chain is immobilized on the base material, and the base material comprises a coating comprising a polymeric compound having formula [1]: where R1, R2, and R3 are each independently a hydrogen atom or methyl group, R4 is a cyclohexyl group, X is an alkyleneoxy group comprising 1 to 10 carbon atoms, p is an integer from 1 to 20 and in the case that p is an integer of 2 to 20, the repeating X may be the same or different, Y is a spacer comprising an alkylene glycol residue, Z is an oxygen atom or NH, and l, m and n are each independently a natural number, wherein immobilization of the sugar chain occurs via Schiff base formation between the primary amine group of the polymeric compound and an aldehyde or ketone group of the sugar chain.
