Goal: Develop a panel of scFvs for each protein produced for evaluation in crystallization trials. The scFvs may also be valuable in defining the role of these proteins in future studies of parasite biology.

Antibody - Mediated Protein Crystallization

Antibody Facilitated Crystallization

• Majority of purified ORF proteins fail to crystallize• Complexing the targets with an scFv or Fab can

improve the chances of crystallization– Reducing protein flexibility– Providing different surface contacts

• Known structure of antibodies can facilitate solving of structures

• Many antibody variable regions contain multiple methionine residues for selenium incorporation

• May be possible to re-engineer the linker to provide additional methionine residues

Requirements for Demonstrating Feasibility of Phage Display

Technology

• Phage display must yield useful antibodies

• Capable of high throughput isolation• Single-chain Fvs must function

equivalent to Fabs in crystallization• Direct purification of antibody-target

complexes desirable

Page 5: Application of Phage Antibody Technology to Structural Genomics: Antibody Selection and Complex Formation Mark A. Sullivan Structural Genomics of Pathogenic.

Essential Elements for Effective Antibody Isolation

• Good library diversity• Stable vector system for efficient selection

– Minimize deletion of scFvs during enrichment

• Good expression and purification of scFvs• Assays for complex formation and effective

purification

Unresolved Issues for Complex Preparation

• Effect of reducing agents on scFv stability• Concentration of complex

– Optimum method– Solubility limits of complexes

• Flag epitope accessibility in scFv/target complex

• scFv multimers• scFv suitability vs. Fab
