Examples of immunoassays include, but are not limited to, ELISA, Western blot, flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, radioimmunoassay, competitive immunoassay, magnetic immunoassay, memory lymphocyte immunostimulation assay (MELISA), side Flow-through immunochromatographic analysis, surround fiber immunoassay (SOFIA), and agglutination-PCR (ADAP). In immunoassays such as ELISA and Western blots, the tandem repetitive proteins or cells of the invention can bind multiple detection antibodies to form a complex, thereby increasing the accumulation of detection in the position of the analyte to be bound to the detection antibody. The amount of antibody. Therefore, the detection efficiency is greatly improved and the detection sensitivity is also increased. In antibody-based immunoassays such as sandwich ELISA or competition ELISA, the tandem repetitive proteins or cells of the invention can be immobilized on a solid support to increase the loading of the capture antibody on a solid support. Therefore, the amount of the analyte to be captured is increased and the detection sensitivity is also improved. In particular, the present invention relates to a recombinant protein called a tandem repetitive protein which is constructed from a fragment (Fc) binding domain of a protein by genetic engineering techniques. The tandem repetitive protein exhibits significantly greater binding efficiency and affinity for antibodies than monomeric proteins. By coating a tandem repetitive protein on a solid phase plate (eg, plate, membrane, and beads), the amount of antibody loaded on the plate can be significantly increased and the antigen-binding domain (Fab) of the antibody can be displayed on the plate. One-way (outward). Another application of the tandem repetitive protein is to generate a polyprotein/antibody complex by mixing a tandem repetitive protein with an antibody, which increases the cumulative amount of antibody on the antigenic region. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a cell which exhibits a tandem repetitive protein on its membrane which exhibits a tandem repetitive protein on the cell surface. By coating the cells on a solid phase plate, the amount of antibody loaded on the plate can be significantly increased and the display of the antigen binding domain (Fab) of the plated antibody can be unidirectional (outward). Another application of cells is to generate a cell/antibody complex by simply mixing cells with antibodies, which increases the cumulative amount of antibody on the antigenic region. Pairing with tandem repetitive proteins or cells allows the antibodies to be directly applied to the immunoassay without additional purification. A variety of antibodies can be used in the present invention to significantly improve the sensitivity and detection limits of immunoassays. Illustrative examples of the invention are shown below.The invention will be further understood by reference to the following non-limiting experimental examples.Instance Instance 1 Longitudinal repetitive protein of the present invention ( Polyprotein G) Cell line and its antibody capture capacity Polyprotein G Construction
The C2 domain of Streptococcal protein G was sequenced and cloned to generate 8 repeats of 1 protein G-C2 domain and protein G-C2 domain (1 repeating amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO: 1). The B7 transmembrane protein was ligated to the C-terminus of the resulting domain to form protein G-mB7 and polyprotein G-mB7. The gene sequence is from the N-terminus to the C-terminus, respectively, HA-protein G-linker-mB7 and HA-polyprotein G-linker-mB7 (see Figure 1).Stable multiprotein G Cell line
The gene sequence was inserted into a lentiviral vector and the resulting vector was transfected into a 3T3 cell line to form protein G cells and polyprotein G cells, respectively. Cell membrane proteins were collected and confirmed by Western blotting by adding mouse anti-HA antibody and HRP goat anti-mouse IgG Fcγ antibody to confirm whether protein G and polyprotein G were correctly expressed. As shown in Figure 2, the protein G-mB7 (molecular weight: 38 KDa) and the polyprotein G-mB7 (95 KDa) were correctly expressed on the cell membrane.Polyprotein G Cell-to-antibody capture
FITC-conjugated goat anti-mouse immunoglobulin G Fcγ antibodies were separately added to protein G cells or polyprotein G cells for binding assay. Binding strength was measured by flow cytometry. The results showed that the fluorescence intensity of protein G cells and polyprotein G cells was 159.63 and 8058.42 (see Figure 3). This demonstrates that protein G cells or polyprotein G cells stably exhibit on the cell membrane and bind well to antibodies. Surprisingly, multiprotein G cells bind antibodies more than 50 times more efficiently than protein G cells.Antibody binding to multiple proteins G Specificity
Protein G cells and polyprotein G cells were added to a 3.3 antibody (an anti-PEG antibody) and then FITC-conjugated 4-arm PEG was added. Flow cytometry was used to determine the intensity of fluorescence on the cell surface. The fluorescence intensity of protein G cells and polyprotein G cells were 21.11 and 138.99, respectively (see Figure 4). The results showed that the 3.3 antibody bound to protein G cells or polyprotein G cells could still bind to FITC-conjugated 4-arm PEG and thus demonstrated that the antibody maintained its specificity after binding to protein G cells or polyprotein G cells.Instance 2 Longitudinal repetitive protein of the present invention ( Polyprotein G) Bacterial cells and their antibody capture capacity Polyprotein G Construction

The gene sequence is from the N-terminus to the C-terminus, respectively, HA-protein G-linker-AIDA and HA-polyprotein G-linker-AIDA (see Figure 5).Stable multiprotein G Cell line

BL21) to form protein G bacteria and polyprotein G bacteria, respectively. Cell membrane proteins were collected and confirmed by Western blotting by adding anti-HA antibody and HRP goat anti-mouse IgG Fcγ antibody to confirm whether protein G and polyprotein G were correctly expressed. As shown in Figure 6, the protein G-AIDA (molecular weight: 70 KDa) and the polyprotein G-AIDA (125 KDa) were correctly expressed on the cell membrane.Polyprotein G Bacterial capture of antibodies

The histidine used as an identifier for protein purification was ligated to the C-terminus of the resulting domain. The gene sequence is HA-polyprotein G from the N-terminus to the C-terminus (see Figure 8).Polyprotein G Mass production
To develop various types of polyprotein G used in immunoassays, construct a repetitive polyprotein G (8 repeats of the C2 domain of protein G) and then insert it into the retroviral vector pLNCX to form pLNCX-polyprotein G. . The resulting vector was transfected into Expi293 cells for mass production of the protein.

PEG2K-Lipo-Dox of 0.1 nM, 1 nM, 10 nM, 100 nM and 1000 nM was added to the plate. AGP4-biotin (a biotin-conjugated anti-PEG detection antibody, IgM type), streptavidin-HRP, and ABTS were sequentially added to the plate. The resulting mixture was measured at O.D. 405 nm. The results showed that the conventional polystyrene-based plate could detect PEG2K-Lipo-Dox when purified with 15.2 Ab, and it could not detect PEG2K-Lipo-Dox when using ascites -15.2 Ab (unpurified). However, polyprotein G cell-based plates were effective in detecting PEG2K-Lipo-Dox using purified 15.2 Ab or ascites-15.2 Ab (unpurified) (Fig. 28). This demonstrates that the use of unpurified capture antibodies in multi-protein G cell-based plates does not affect detection sensitivity, so protein G cell-based plates have significantly higher sensitivity and can reduce antibody purification steps to save cost.
