Direct Comparison of the Hinge-Cleaving Proteases IgdE and BdpK for LC-MS-Based IgG1 Clonal Profiling

Abstract excerpt

Human antibodies are heterogeneous molecules primarily due to clonal sequence variations. Analytical techniques to assess antibody levels quantitatively, such as ELISA, lack the power to resolve abundances at the clonal level. Recently, we introduced an LC-MS-based approach that can distinguish and quantify antibody clones using the mass and retention time of their corresponding Fab-fragments. We used specific...
