Intro
What is an Antibody?
• Glycoprotein
• 2 Heavy Chains + 2
Light Chains
• Antigen Binding Site
• Variable Region
• FAB Domain
• Fc Domain
• Disulfide Bonds

HuCAL Platinum
Synthetic Antibody Library – 3rd Generation
• 45 Billion Human Antibody Genes
• Uses 6 CDRs with Length Dependent Designs
• High Specificity
• Produced within Bacteria
• 8 week Turn-around Time
• 90+% Success Rate
7 Steps to Success
1. Antigen Immobilization
2. Panning
3. Subcloning
4. Primary Screening
5. Sequencing
6. Expression & Purification
7. QC
Ylera, Francisco. "HuCAL Antibodies Technical Manual" AbD Serotec 2nd edition. P. 12
Steps 1-2: Immobilization/Panning
• Antigen immobilized on solid
support via covalent coupling to
magnetic beads.
• HuCAL library incubated with the
immobilized antigen and
nonspecific antibodies removed
via washing and the specific
antibody phage eluted by
addition of a reducing agent.
• E. coli culture infected with
eluted phage and helper phage to
make the purified antibody phage
library for subsequent panning
round
• Usually 3 panning rounds
Ylera, Francisco. "HuCAL Antibodies Technical Manual" AbD Serotec 2nd edition. P. 31
Steps 3-4: Subcloning and Screening.
• Enriched antibody isolated and
subcloned into Fab expression
vector. Vector formats vary
between monovalent and
bivalent Fab fragments with
epitope choice tags.
• E. coli transformed via ligation
and plated on agar plates. Each
colony that grows is a monoclonal
antibody.
• These colonies are selected and
grown in a 384 well-microliter
plate. Expression is induced and
culture is lysed to release
antibodies. Screening is done for
specific antigen binding via
ELISA/FMAT.

Steps 5-7:Sequencing/Purification/QC
• Sequenced to identify unique
antibodies guaranteeing
uniqueness of any antibody and
as an ideal antibody storage
backup. If needed to be made
again, can be easily down by
synthesis.
• Expressed and purified using one-
step affinity chromatography.
• Purified antibodies tested by
ELISA, or in a bead-based FMAT.
Purity is seen by Coomassie
staining of SDS-PAGE and yield is
measured by UV absorbance at
280 nm.

Safety Issues.
Standard procedure so safety not a real concern. As with cloning and any
other technique, proper protocols must be followed.

Pros and Cons
Pros
• Mouse/Rabbit not needed and
done in E coli making antibody
process faster change of format.
• Very diverse selection. Guided
antibody selection allows to block
library against related proteins
assay
• Conversion of antibodies via DNA
cloning into different formats:
Addition of peptide tags for
purification, detection, labeling, a
nd immobilization
• More than 90% success rate for
antibody generation
Cons
• Always read when it comes
to specificity and can always
be refined.
• Not ideal for quick use and
long duration for ordering
(8 weeks).
• Human error can effect the
experiment on transfer.
Gold vs Platinum
• 7 test selections were
done under same
conditions with HuCAL
GOLD vs. HuCAL
PLATINUM. These
numbers of unique
sequences isolated
against indicated
antigens from both
libraries.

  • #4 (Dominique): if you want to add brandons stuff: Fab = Fragment Ag binding region (region on Ab that binds to Ags)Fab – Fc and Fv (2 different H and L chains)Fv = Paratope NH2 regionIn the amino acid sequence of variable domain of Ag receptor = 3 CDRsCDR1, CDR2,CDR3The "upper" part (Fab region) of an antibody. The complementarity determining regions of the heavy chain are shown in red
  • #5 (Dominique): see if you want to add brandons stuff in the following: Synthetic human Fab library, sequence optimization, 4 fold unique sequenes + higher affinity, Avoids N-glycosylations sites, Gene optimization / IgGs expression levels,Length dependent Diversity Natural CDR-H3 distribution in human repertoire
