Antibodies are crucial in diagnostics and therapeutics, with epitope mapping essential for understanding antibody function and protecting intellectual property. The AbMap strategy combines phage displayed peptide libraries with next-generation sequencing to efficiently map epitopes. Profiles of peptides bound by multiple antibodies were determined using AbMap, identifying over 50% of antibodies' linear epitopes, with the potential for high-throughput epitope mapping and cost savings compared to traditional methods.
Antibodies play essential roles in both diagnostics and therapeutics. Epitope mapping is essential to understand how an antibody works and to protect intellectual property. Given the millions of antibodies for which epitope information is lacking, there is a need for high-throughput epitope mapping. To address this, we developed a strategy, Antibody binding epitope Mapping (AbMap), by combining a phage displayed peptide library with next-generation sequencing. Using AbMap, profiles of the peptides bound by 202 antibodies were determined in a single test, and linear epitopes were identified for >50% of the antibodies. Using spike protein (S1 and S2)-enriched antibodies from the convalescent serum of one COVID-19 patient as the input, both linear and potentially conformational epitopes of spike protein specific antibodies were identified. We defined peptide-binding profile of an antibody as the binding capacity (BiC). Conceptually, the BiC could serve as a systematic and functional descriptor of any antibody. Requiring at least one order of magnitude less time and money to map linear epitopes than traditional technologies, AbMap allows for high-throughput epitope mapping and creates many possibilities.
