Abstrakt: Maximizing the binding properties of thermoresponsive molecularly imprinted nanoparticles (MIN) was aimed to explore their feasibility as antibody substitutes in protein immunoprecipitation (IPP) with magnetic streptavidin beads (MSB). Thermoresponsive MIN targeting the cannabinoid CB 1 receptor were produced by epitope imprinting through solid-phase synthesis. It was intended to determine how different variables influenced physicochemical features, binding behaviour and immunoprecipitation of the target recombinant glutathione S-transferase tagged fusion protein (GST-CTer). Such variables included the cross-linking degree of MIN, and variables like pH, temperature or the use of Tween-20 for binding and IPP experiments. The cross-linker (CL) amount influenced the coil-to-globule transition of thermoresponsive MIN, making the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) decrease from 37.2 °C using 5% of CL, to 29.0 °C using 25%, also suggesting higher plasticity on the former. Temperature influence on size was corroborated by dynamic light scattering, observing size reductions from 250-450 nm (RT) to 70-100 nm (> LCST) for MIN produced with 5-15% of CL. However, binding behaviour did not clearly  improve for more than 10% CL. Further experiments revealed that temperature and pH control were critical for efficient binding and release, selecting 40 °C and pH 5 as appropriate. Following binding experiments, the GST-CTer-MIN complex was successfully immunoprecipitated using MSB, achieving an IPP efficiency of 11.48% over the initial input protein concentration, which was calculated after SDS-PAGE separation and Western blot analysis. The methodology may be exploited for selective protein extraction and quantification from complex tissue homogenates.
