SPR instrumentation (XPR36), GLC sensor chip, and amine coupling reagents containing N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide (sulfo-NHS), N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDAC), and ethanolamine HCl were obtained from Bio-Rad. Synthetic refolded Agaphelin was diluted to a concentration of 100 µg/ml in NaOAc buffer (10 mM, pH 4.5) and coupled to the surface of a GLC chip using the manufacture's amine-coupling chemistry as described in the XPR36 system manual. Briefly, the surface of the sensor chip was first activated with EDC/NHS, followed by addition of the peptide. The surface was blocked using ethanolamine. Employing these conditions, surfaces containing densities of 408.27 resonance units of peptide were generated. Surface regeneration was done using 10 mM HCl. Sensograms were recorded and normalized to a baseline of 0 resonance units. Equivalent volumes of elastase were also injected over a mock, no-protein, blocked surface to serve as a blank sensogram for subtraction of bulk refractive index background. Sensograms were analyzed for fitting using XPR36 software (Bio-Rad). A Langmuir single-site binding model (A+B = AB) was used for analysis of interaction of the Kazal peptide and elastase surface.

Monoclonal IgM (MPFM-55A, Abcam; ab9206) antibodies were covalently bound to polystyrene BioPlex® COOH beads (BioRad; 1715060XX) by the commonly-used EDC/Sulfo-NHS intermediate reaction. Reactive esters were formed on the carboxylated beads in the presence of EDAC [1-Ethyl-3-(3ʹ-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide](EMD Millipore; 341006) and Sulfo-NHS [N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide] (ThermoScientific; 24510) under light agitation for 20 min. Carboxyl to antibody amine crosslinking took place in the presence of activation buffer (LuminexCorp; 11–25171) under light agitation for 2 h. Nonspecific protein binding was blocked by BSA incubation (PBS pH7.2, 0.05% Tween20 [PBS-T] + 1% BSA) for 30 min and beads resuspended in blocking buffer with the addition of 0.02% NaN3. Once the optimal coupling concentration of capture antibody to beads was found (S1 Fig), a large-scale bead coupling was done to cover all experiments.

Commercially available reagents were used without additional purification unless otherwise stated. estradiol, estradiol 3-sulfate sodium salt, estradiol 3,17-disulfate dipotassium salt, estrone sulfate potassium salt were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Sydney, Australia). Methanol and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) were purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Scoresby, Australia). PBST (phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4 with 0.05% Tween 20) was purchased from Sigma, and SPR reagents (40 mM EDC, 10 mM sulfo-NHS, 10 mM sodium acetate, 1 M ethanolamine HCl, pH 8.5) were purchased from Bio-Rad Laboratories (Gladesville, Australia).
SPR binding affinity measurements were performed using the Biacore T200 with a CM5 sensor chip (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Sydney, Australia). The experiment was prepared and obtained with the Biacore T200 Control Software, and analysed with the Biacore T200 Evaluation Software.
GraphPad Prism v7.02 software59 was used to develop a nonlinear regression fit of the data collected in the inhibition assays. The IC50 is reported with the standard error.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
