Use of Surface Plasmon Resonance and Biolayer Interferometry for the Study of Protein–Protein Interactions on the Example of an Enzyme of a Glycosyl Hydrolase Subtype (EC 3.2.1) and Specific Antibodies to It

Abstract

Two previously obtained, full-size, fully human antibodies that reversibly bind the active form of an enzyme belonging to the subtype EC 3.2.1, which is used for substitutive enzymatic therapy in lysosomal storage diseases, have been characterized by surface plasmon resonance and biolayer interferometry methods. It was shown under normal physiological conditions that the designed antibodies specifically bound with the antigen (KD ~ 10^–8 M) and rapidly dissociated at neutral pH in 60% ethylene glycol while leaving the enzymatic activity unchanged. Dan ue to their properties, the developed antibodies can be used in industry as affinity ligand in the isolation of therapeutic substances of the enzyme.
