Proximity extension assay

59:. Target binding by the proximity probes increases their local relative effective concentration of the DNA-tags enabling hybridization of weak complementarity to each other which then enables a DNA polymerase mediated extension forming a united DNA sequence specific for each target protein detected. The use of 3'exonuclease proficient polymerases lowers background noise and hyper thermostable polymerases mediate a simple assay with a natural hot-start reaction. This created pool of extension products of DNA sequence forms amplicons amplified by 80:
PEA is derived from the proximity ligation assay (PLA) which uses a DNA ligase enzyme to unite the sequences of the proximity probes instead of a DNA polymerase. PLA is also suitable for multiplexing, but suffers from enzymatic sample variable inhibition of ligase enzymes from components of serum and

by DNA-tag counting. PEA enables the detection of many proteins simultaneously (so called multiplexing) due to the readout requiring the combination of two correctly bound antibodies per protein to generate a detectable DNA sequence from the extension reaction. Only cognate pairs of sequence are
47:. Biomarkers and biomarker signature combinations, are useful for determining disease states and drug efficacy. Most methods for detecting proteins involve the use of a solid phase for first capturing and immobilizing the protein analyte, where in one or a few proteins are quantified, such as 406:

detected as true signal, enabling multiplexing beyond solid phase capture methods limited at around 30 proteins at a time. The DNA amplification power also enable minute sample volumes even below one microliter. PEA has been used in over 1000 research publications.
