摘要 |
This invention provides compositions and methods for assaying the presence of a target analyte in a sample using a solid support. Embodiments of the present invention provide a solid support having a binding protein, such as an antibody, antibody fragment or protein receptor, immobilized to the solid support and at least two separate nucleic acid primers immobilized near the binding protein. This invention also provides a method for tethering two or more polypeptide subunits to generate a multifunctional fusion protein, which can have a primary function, e.g., binding a target analyte, such as a target protein, or an enzymatic activity, and one or more of the subunits of the fusion protein carries out a secondary function, e.g., capture on a solid matrix or quantitation.
