Although the idea of homogeneous electrochemical immunoassay using antibody and an electroactive modified antigen as a probe looks to be very useful for high-throughput drug screening, there have been few reports. One reason for this is the difficulty experienced making an electroactive probe, because the introduction of electroactive compounds to antigens often interferes with the antigen-antibody interaction. To apply a homogeneous electrochemical assay to drug screening, we have designed new probes referring to the information of immobilization on beads which could identify the drug receptor. FK506 (also called Tacrolimus), immunosuppressive agent is modified with ferrocene derivatives as an electron mediator between glucose oxidase and an electrode, at a non-obstructing part. One of the probes still indicated the electrochemical activity as a mediator and had the specific binding capability for FKBP12 (FK506 binding protein). The current decrease in response to the additional FKBP12, detected with constant voltage amperometry using the probe, was observed within 5 min. Then, free FK506 as a leader drug, rapamycin and cyclosporine A as unknown drugs were used as a model for drug screening. Since the order of response currents at the same concentration of each drug reflected their binding constants, it was shown that binding capacity of an unknown drug candidate could be estimated by comparison of response currents between the leader drug and the unknown drug candidate. Thus, this glucose oxidase assisted homogeneous electrochemical drug-receptor binding assay has been proved to be a useful tool for drug screening.
