Panoramica

Avidin is a tetrameric protein. In chicken egg white, avidin makes up approximately 0.05% of total protein (approximately 1.8 mg per egg). The tetrameric protein contains four identical subunits (homotetramer) each of which can bind to biotin (Vitamin B7, vitamin H) with a high degree of affinity and specificity.

Avidin's affinity for biotin is exploited in wide ranging biochemical assays, including Western Blot, ELISA, ELISPOT and pull-down assays. Avidin immobilized onto solid supports is also used as purification media to capture biotin-labelled protein or nucleic acid molecules. For example, cell surface proteins can be specifically labelled with membrane impermeable biotin reagent, then specifically captured using an avidin-based support.

Avidin and biotin are routinely conjugated to indicator enzymes, such as alkaline phosphatase and horseradish peroxidase for use in diagnostic kit development and manufacturing.

Application：

Avidin from egg white can be used in assays for functionalized xenon as a biosensor to detect biotin-avidin binding. Egg white was used at 80 nmol.
