Precise determination of the diversity of a combinatorial antibody library gives insight into the human immunoglobulin repertoire
29 Oct 2009
Abstract excerpt
Antibody repertoire diversity, potentially as high as 10(11) unique molecules in a single individual, confounds characterization by conventional sequence analyses. In this study, we present a general method for assessing human antibody sequence diversity displayed on phage using massively parallel pyrosequencing, a novel application of Kabat column-labeled profile Hidden Markov Models, and translated...
