Figure 1. Schematic illustration of SPR to determine binding interactions of representative small molecule ligand (molecule in the black circle) to target protein (blue): (a) Analytes (small molecule ligands; black circle) are passed through microfluidic system (buffer) and flown over the receptor (target protein; blue ribbon structure) immobilized on the chip surface. Polarized light is directed through a prism and incident upon bottom side of sensor chip (surface of the gold film) where waves of surface plasmons are generated at the critical angle of incident light; (b) After analytes bind to the receptor, there is a change in the critical angle of the incident light and reflected as I and II; (c) SPR sensogram comprising of the association phase (I) and the dissociation phase (II). SPR response values are expressed in resonance units (RU).
