A method for screening an anticancer candidate is disclosed. The method includes immobilizing gold nanoparticles onto a substrate; binding a protein involved in carcinogenesis and metastasis to the immobilized gold nanoparticles, recording a spectrum of the protein conjugate, and analyzing the spectrum to obtain reference data; adding a candidate inhibiting the activity of the protein to the protein conjugate, recording a spectrum of the mixture, and analyzing the spectrum to obtain comparative data; and comparing the reference data with the comparative data to determine whether the candidate inhibits the activity of the protein. The method enables screening of a candidate inhibiting the activity of a protein involved in carcinogenesis and metastasis in an accurate and convenient manner.
