Abstract
[Problem] To provide a motor protein device capable of efficiently transporting and detecting a target antibody. [Solution] A motor protein device of the present invention includes a collection region where a carrier molecule collects a target molecule using antigen-antibody reaction, and an unloading region where the target molecule is unloaded from the carrier molecule using chemical equilibrium. Further, the motor protein device includes a transport path provided between the collection region and the unloading region through which the carrier molecule can transport the target molecule, and an analysis portion which detects a change in concentration of the target molecule in the unloading region. The unloading region includes certain antibody having capture force higher than predetermined antibody being modified to the carrier molecule and the target molecule is concentrated in the unloading region. The carrier molecule includes actin obtained by modifying the predetermined antibody, and the transport path includes immobilized myosin.
