Bevacizumab, Rituximab, and Trastuzuzumab Heavy Chain Variable Domain Peptide Library Screening: A peptide library of the heavy chain variable domain for Bevacizumab, Rituximab, and Trastuzumab were screened via Biacore over immobilized HSA and an HSA peptide library, as well as vice versa. Peptides were run in the pM-uM concentration range. (a) The positive results of the peptide screening. Binding kinetics between antibody variable domain peptides and HSA Peptide 40/HSA were determined by Biacore Evaluation Software analysis of SPR sensograms. (b) Multiple sequence alignment of the variable region peptides in question, performed by Clustal Omega. (c) Rituximab digest Biacore screening. Rituximab was trypsin digested and separated by HPLC reverse phase chromatography. The fraction (Fraction 58) that bound both HSA Peptide 40 and albumin was sequenced via mass spec. (d) 3D structure prediction of peptides in solution performed by PEP-FOLD 3.0, visualized in Chimera. (e) Biolayer Interfermoetry (BLITZ) assay kinetics assay of either biotinylated bevacizumab or Bev Variable Domain Peptide bound to strepdavidin probe against Abraxane nanoparticles. Pembrolizumab included as a negative control.
