In this paper, we describe a method to covalently attach different HaloTag ® fusion proteins on HaloLink™ slides (see Figure 1 ) and consequently perform an immunoscreening using polyclonal antibodies in a microarray format, which is a suitable method for high-throughput applications such as screening of entire expression libraries (see Figure 2 ). Using our new method, we were able to express, immobilize and screen all of nine different proteins from Campylobacter jejuni using HaloTag ® and KRX cells. We were able to clone several genes from Campylobacter jejuni into KRX cells, to express the respective proteins as fusion constructs with a HaloTag ® attached to their N-Terminus and to immobilize these proteins on microarray surfaces. ./cache/cord-261375-6fu3dzi9.txt ./txt/cord-261375-6fu3dzi9.txt
