Figure 8. Thermodynamic characterization of the interaction between purified CB2 and an anti CB2 monoclonal antibody by SPR.
The normalized binding response of NAA-1 antibody to CB2–coated surfaces as a function of antibody concentration is shown. For normalization, the response obtained from equilibrium titration experiments (Material and methods, and figure S4) at the end of each antibody injection (0-450 nM) was divided by the corresponding surface density RU-value of captured CB2. Steady state affinity analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism software. The value for KD (25 °C) of 2.2 ± 0.2 nM was obtained by non-linear regression analysis considering a 1:1 binding model.
