<p>This disclosure provides compositions and methods for a low-avidity, high-affinity and high-specificity biomolecular interaction that is rapidly reversible under physiological conditions. The methods comprise linking biological targets (such as molecules, proteins, DNA, cells, etc.) with polymers and anti-polymer ligands and a way to reverse their binding using physiologically compatible polymeric compounds. The methods also comprise a way to combine different polymer/anti-polymer systems for orthogonal labeling. The compositions comprise labels including particles (fluorescent, magnetic, dense, etc.) conjugated to polymers or labels conjugated to anti-polymer antibodies. The compositions also comprise biomolecules (proteins, antibodies, DNA, etc.) conjugated to the polymers. These methods and compositions represent a major improvement to the state-of-the-art. They are particularly useful for separation and isolation of biological targets using particles, but have important application to other fields including fluorescent imaging.</p> |
