Abstract
Glyphosate-resistant crops, developed using the EPSPS gene, are widely cultivated globally. Previous studies indicate that the TIPS-OsEPSPS gene provides glyphosate resistance in rice. In this research, the OsmEPSPS gene was utilized to develop glyphosate-resistant, maize, and soybean, and a rapid immunochromatographic strip (ICS) test was designed for specific detection of the OsmEPSPS protein. The ICS test employs a double-antibody sandwich format with two monoclonal antibodies: mAb #9, conjugated to colloidal gold for capture, and mAb #15, for detection at the test line. The ICS exhibited a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.031 μg/mL within 10 min. Additionally, the ICS could detect a concentration of 0.817 μg/mL within 1 min in both Eleusine indica and OsmEPSPS-overexpressing plants. The ICS is highly specific, sensitive, and stable, with an R2 value of 0.982. Notably, the ICS is capable of detecting EPSPS proteins with high homology to OsmEPSPS from Poaceae and other plants. In summary, this study developed a sensitive and specific test strip for OsmEPSPS detection, facilitating semiquantitative analysis on the basis of colorimetric response time and intensity. This ICS is not only suitable for the rapid identification of OsmEPSPS-overexpressing plants but also for phylogenetic analysis of EPSPS gene homology.
期刊介绍:
The journal''s title Analytical Biochemistry: Methods in the Biological Sciences declares its broad scope: methods for the basic biological sciences that include biochemistry, molecular genetics, cell biology, proteomics, immunology, bioinformatics and wherever the frontiers of research take the field.
The emphasis is on methods from the strictly analytical to the more preparative that would include novel approaches to protein purification as well as improvements in cell and organ culture. The actual techniques are equally inclusive ranging from aptamers to zymology.
The journal has been particularly active in:
-Analytical techniques for biological molecules-
Aptamer selection and utilization-
Biosensors-
Chromatography-
Cloning, sequencing and mutagenesis-
Electrochemical methods-
Electrophoresis-
Enzyme characterization methods-
Immunological approaches-
Mass spectrometry of proteins and nucleic acids-
Metabolomics-
Nano level techniques-
Optical spectroscopy in all its forms.
The journal is reluctant to include most drug and strictly clinical studies as there are more suitable publication platforms for these types of papers.
