There are a number of outstanding volumes that provide a comprehensive overview of bioconjugation techniques. However, many of the conventional approaches to the synthesis of chemically modified protein conjugates lack efficient means to control the stoichiometry of conjugation, as well as the s- cific site of attachment of the conjugated moiety. Moreover, the recent dev- opments in microarray technologies as well as in nanobiotechnology—a novel field of research rapidly evolving at the crossroads of physics, chemistry, b- technology, and materials science—call for a summary of modern bioconjugation strategies to overcome the limitations of the classical approaches. Bioconjugation Protocols: Methods and Strategies is intended to provide an update of many of the classic techniques and also to introduce and summarize newer approaches that go beyond the pure biomedical applications of bioconjugation. The purpose of Bioconjugation Protocols: Methods and Str- egies is therefore to provide instruction and inspiration for all those scientists confronting the challenges of semisynthesizing functional biomolecular reagents for a wide variety of applications ranging from novel biomedical diagnostics, to therapeutics, to biomaterials. Part I contains seven protocols for the preparation of protein conjugates.

This book explores well-established and emerging conjugation strategies that are relevant for proteins used in the field of precision medicine, focusing on techniques that are suitable for antibodies, antibody-fragments such as Fabs, scFvs, or nanobodies, scaffold proteins such as FN3 or DARPin, peptides, or model proteins. Although centered on the development of bioconjugates rather than their application, most protocols also show the conjugation of the targeting vehicle to a diagnostic or therapeutic entity, with the end-product most often being an antibody-drug conjugate, an optical probe, a nanomedicine, or a radiopharmaceutical. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and practical, Bioconjugation: Methods and Protocols is an ideal guide for researchers looking toward precision medicine in order to expand the vital field of drug discovery.

Since the publication of the first edition of Chemistry of Protein Conjugation and Cross-Linking in 1991, new cross-linking reagents, notably multifunctional cross-linkers, have been developed and synthesized. The completion of the human genome project has opened a new area for studying nucleic acid and protein interactions using nucleic acid cross-linking reagents, and advances have also been made in the area of biosensors and microarray biochips for the detection and analysis of genes, proteins, and carbohydrates. In addition, developments in physical techniques with unprecedented sensitivity and resolution have facilitated the analysis of cross-linked products. Updated to reflect the advances of the 21st century, this book offers: An overview of the chemical principles underlying the processes of cross-linking and conjugation A thorough list of cross-linking reagents published in the literature since the first edition, covering monofunctional, homobifunctional, heterobifunctional, multifunctional, and zero-length cross-linkers Reviews of the use of these reagents in studying protein tertiary structures, geometric arrangements of subunits within complex proteins and nucleic acids, near-neighbor analysis, protein-to-protein or ligand–receptor interactions, and conformational changes of biomolecules Discusses the application of immunoconjugation for immunoassays, immunotoxins for targeted therapy, microarray technology for analysis of various biomolecules, and solid state chemistry for immobilizations
