Summary Fast and convenient binding assays using synthetic peptides are of utmost and increasing importance, especially in the search for lead structures or in the field of diagnostics. A polymeric support suitable for solid-phase peptide synthesis was functionalized with two different anchor groups. The interior part of the aminomethylated polystyrene-1%-divinylbenzene resin beads, comprising about 98% of the total loading capacity, was modified by the acid-labile ADPV anchor whereas the 2% outer surface of the polymer was covalently coated with a PEG 10 000 derivative which renders the resin surface hydrophilic and biocompatible. The novel resin was characterized by introducing marker amino acids and by infrared spectroscopy. Employing this bifunctionalized resin for peptide synthesis, free as well as polymer-bound peptides were obtained which were tested for recognition by antibody. The resin-bound peptides proved to be suitable for ELISA and fluorescence assays, as shown by confocal laser microscopic investigations. Peptides from the interior part were obtained in high yield and purity as analyzed by HPLC, electrospray mass spectrometry and Edman degradation.
