Abstract
A recombinant target-specific signal amplifier was constructed by genetically fusing the enhanced ascorbate peroxidase 2 (APEX2) and an antibody-binding domain (ABD). The fusion protein APEX2-ABD possessed the peroxidase activity and the antibody-binding capability simultaneously and replaced the conventional HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies in a TSA assay for amplifying fluorescence signals.
