Preparation of glass substrate for introduction of polymerizable groups
A glass substrate (9.7 11.7 mm, Matsunami Glass Co., Ltd., Japan) was washed with methanol and pure water,
and placed under UV-O3 light for 30 min. The cleaned glass substrate was immersed in 1%
3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane aqueous solution (containing 1% acetic acid). After 24 h, the glass substrate
was washed with ethanol and pure water and placed on a hot plate at 110°C for 1 min.
Preparation of Cyt-imprinted polymer using 6 (MIP), Cyt-imprinted polymer using 7 (comp-MIP) and
non-imprinted polymer (NIP)
Pre-polymerization solutions for MIP, comp-MIP and NIP were prepared, as shown in Table 1, by dissolving each
compound in 2.5 mL of 10 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.3). The 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane-modified
glass substrate was covered by a silicone rubber sheet (9.7 11.7 mm) with a shallow well (6.0 9.0 mm), and 55
L of the pre-polymerization solution was placed in the well, which was then sealed by a cover glass (24 24 mm)
that had been treated with trimethylchlorosilane. To initiate polymerization, the reaction mixture was irradiated
with LED light (365 nm, 250 mW, ThermoStage-AS, YMC Co. Ltd., Kyoto, Japan) from the bottom of the
substrate for 1 h at 4°C. After polymerization, the resulting polymeric film was washed with ethanol and pure
water.

Introduction of a fluorescent reporter molecule into the polymeric thin film by post-imprinting
treatment
For disulfide linkage reduction accompanied by removal of Cyt, each polymeric thin film was immersed in 10
mM tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine solution (5 mL) for 4 h, followed by washing with pure water. The exposed
thiol group in the polymeric film was allowed to react with thiol-reactive fluorescent dye (DBD-F). The polymeric
thin film was immersed in 5 mM DBD-F solution (acetonitrile:borate buffer containing 1% EDTA = 1:1) and
allowed to stand for 1 h at 50°C. After the reaction, the film was washed with methanol and pure water.
N-(9-acridinyl)maleimide and Cy5 maleimide were also applied to the post-imprinting treatment. The polymeric
thin film, in which thiol group was exposed by the same procedure for the DBD-F introduction, was immersed in
40 mM N-(9-acridinyl)maleimide solution (acetone : 100 mM borate buffer (pH 9.3) containing 1% EDTA = 1:1)

for 1h at room temperature. Similarly, the thiol-exposed film was immersed in 400 L of 10 mM phosphate
buffer (pH 7.3) dissolving Cy5 maleimide that was prepared by the addition of Cy5 maleimide dissolved in DMF
(50 L), and allowed to stand for 12 h at room temperature. After the reactions, each film was washed with
methanol and pure water.
Fluorescence titration of proteins with prepared polymer films
MIP, comp-MIP and NIP, in which DBD-F was introduced by post-imprinting treatment, were placed in a cuvette
(AS ONE Corporation, Osaka, Japan, 12.5 12.5 45 mm) containing 10 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.3, 3 mL).
The fluorescence intensity at 537 nm (Ex: 410 nm) was measured after addition of 20 µL of 30 µM Cyt solution.
Hb, RNase A, HSA, and IgG were used as controls. The final concentration of each protein was varied from 0 to
1.0 µM. In the same way, MIPs, in which either N-(9-acridinyl)maleimide or Cy5 maleimide was introduced,
were subjected to fluorescence titration of Cyt. Fluorescence intensities at 439 nm (Ex: 360 nm) and 668 nm (Ex:
650 nm) were measured for N-(9-acridinyl)maleimide and Cy5 maleimide, respectively.
Fluorescence titration of proteins with DBD-F conjugated with -mercaptoethanol (DBD-F derivative)
The DBD-F derivative (1.74 µmol, 0.53 mg) was dissolved in DMSO (58 µL) to give a 30 µM DBD-F solution,
of which 20 µL was added to a cuvette filled with 10 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.3, 3 mL). The fluorescence
intensity was measured after addition of 20 µL of a 30 µM solution of each protein (Cyt, Hb, RNase A, HSA, and
IgG). The final concentration of each protein was varied from 0 to 1.0 µM.
Preparation of polymeric thin film on Au substrate for SPR measurements
A gold sensor chip was washed with ethanol and water and placed under UV-O3 light for 30 min. The sensor chip
was immersed in a 5 mM ethanolic solution of bis(acryloyl)cystamine. After 24 h, the chip was washed with
ethanol and pure water. Polymeric thin films of MIP and NIP were prepared on the Au sensor chip using the same
manner of preparation as for the glass substrate. These films were then immersed in 10 mM
tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine solution (5 mL) for disulfide linkage reduction. After 4 h, the films were allowed to
react with DBD-F (in a 1:1 solution of acetonitrile and 100 mM borate buffer (pH 9.3) containing 1% EDTA) for 1
h at 50°C, followed by washing with methanol and pure water.
SPR measurements
Binding experiments for MIP and NIP prepared on the Au chip were performed at 25°C. Cyt, Hb, RNase A, HSA,
and IgG, dissolved in 10 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.3), were used for the experiments. The measurement
conditions were as follows. Running buffer: 10 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.3); flow rate: 20 µL/min; injection
volume: 20 µL; regeneration solution: 10 mM phosphate buffer containing 1 M NaCl and 0.3% SDS aq. with 200
mM NaCl (flow rate: 30 µL/min, 30 s). The amounts of the bound proteins were calculated from the signal intensity
(measured in resonance units, RU) 120 s after the end of each sample injection period. The concentration of each

protein was varied from 0 to 1.0 µM. Binding isotherms were drawn using ΔRU values for each protein
concentration.
