Abstract: Based on surface plasmon resonance technique, a new method has been developed for efficiently recognizing the chiral discrimination between the small molecule L- and D-amino acid enantiomers without any labeling. Bovine serum albumin and lysozyme were selected as chiral recognition probes, and phenylalanine and tryptophan including L-, D- four enantiomers were used as analytes. While six different concentrations of each amino acid enantiomers interacted with two proteins probes at the same time, the binding kinetics informations of them were obtained in real time. The results showed that proteins had excellent chiral recognition capability to L- and D- enantiomers. The chiral discrimination between each of amino acid enantiomers could be recognized obviously by comparison either their binding kinetics parameters or sensorgram. The results also indicated that the affinity of protein and L-amino acid was bigger than that of protein and D-amino acid.
