摘要:
The purpose of the present invention is to develop: a method for selectively separating a glycoprotein derived from the central nervous system from a body fluid or a central nervous system cell; and a method for searching for an index marker for central nervous system diseases, which utilizes the aforementioned method. A protein derived from the central nervous system, which occurs in a trace amount in a body fluid or a central nervous system cell, can be selectively enriched by a two-stage separation procedure comprising removing a glycoprotein having sialic acid at a non-reducing terminal thereof from the body fluid or the central nervous system cell and then separating a glycoprotein having N-acetylglucosamine at a non-reducing terminal thereof.
摘要:
It is intended to develop and provide a method for detecting a particular glycan-isoform rapidly and specifically by a small number of steps. The present invention provides a glycan-isoform detection method comprising quantifying an immune complex formed by the mixing of a test sample with a sugar chain non-reducing terminal residue-binding lectin and an antibody specifically binding to the protein moiety of the glycan-isoform, etc., comparing the obtained amount of the immune complex with the amount of a control immune complex obtained when a control sample is not mixed with the sugar chain non-reducing terminal residue-binding lectin or is mixed with a control protein, and determining the presence or absence of the glycan-isoform of interest in the test sample on the basis of the difference between these amounts.
