Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé pour la fixation, catalysée par la transglutaminase, d'une protéine ou d'un peptide sur un support, tout en conservant au moins 50 % de l'activité biologique de la protéine ou du peptide, des protéines fixées au support immobilisées et des supports-protéines conjugués obtenus selon ce procédé, ainsi que l'utilisation des protéines fixées au support immobilisées et des supports-protéines conjugués conformes à l'invention. Il est déjà connu d'immobiliser simultanément des enzymes avec des matériaux supports, par fixation catalysée par la transglutaminase. Ce procédé n'est toutefois pas approprié pour des enzymes avec des molécules substrats. Des essais poussés visant à lier des enzymes avec des substrats polymères sur des matériaux échangeurs d'ions et à les stabiliser avec la transglutaminase n'ont conduit qu'à des produits immobilisés de très faible activité. Le nouveau procédé permet de produire des protéines fixées au support immobilisées et des supports-protéines conjugués, tout en conservant au moins 50 % de l'activité biologique de la protéine ou du peptide. A cet effet, l'invention est caractérisée en ce qu'on fixe sur un support une protéine ou un peptide sous l'action de la transglutaminase en mettant en contact le support avec la protéine ou le peptide à fixer et avec la transglutaminase, et en ce que le support et la protéine agissent comme donneurs acyle et/ou amine et sont appropriés comme substrat de transglutaminase.
