Abstract excerpt
A new method for simultaneously screening allelic variants and certain Fc modifications on endogenous human IgG1 and IgG2 directly from blood samples is described. The IdeS endoproteinase was used to cleave IgG in serum to generate Fc, which, after denaturation, was analyzed directly as monomeric Fc (Fc/2) by LC-MS to identify the haplotype(s) present in each individual. The relative levels of IgG isotype and...
