Antibody purification and purity monitoring

Номер: CA2905531A1
Принадлежит: Alder Biopharmaceuticals Inc

Processes for producing and purifying recombinant proteins are disclosed. In particular, the present disclosure provides processes of producing and purifying multi-subunit proteins expressed in yeast or filamentous fungal cells. The production and/or purification of such proteins are monitored for impurities, preferably using lectin binding assays, such that one or more process parameters may be adjusted to maximize the amount of desired recombinant protein and minimize the amount of glycosylated impurities. The processes can also be monitored for other undesired product-associated impurities, such as aggregates and nucleic acids. In exemplary embodiments, the recombinant proteins are multi-subunit proteins, such as antibodies, the host cell is a yeast, such as Pichia pastoris, and the glycosylated impurity is a glycovariant of the desired recombinant polypeptide, such as an N-linked and/or O-linked glycovariant.

Protocol for identifying and isolating antigen-specific b cells and producing antibodies to desired antigens

Номер: CA2907570A1
Принадлежит: Alder Biopharmaceuticals Inc

Methods of identifying antigen-specific antibody-secreting and antibody-forming cells, such as antigen-specific B cells, and methods for cloning the antigen-specific antibody sequences of the antibody produced by these cells are provided. In particular, the methods include enriching B cells for antigen-specific B cells, culturing the antigen-specific B cells to generate clonal B cell populations, detecting clonal B cells that produce a single antigen-specific antibody, optionally screening the clonal B cell populations for functional activity, staining and sorting the cells to isolate the antigen-specific B cells, sequencing the nucleic acids encoding the antigen-specific antibody sequences, expressing the sequences to produce an antibody, isolating the antibody and screening the antibody for antigen recognition. The methods provide improved enrichment and selection of antigen-specific antibody-secreting and antibody-forming cells, which enhances recovery of antigen-specific antibodies.

Anti-glycoprotein antibodies and uses thereof

Номер: CA2974033A1
Принадлежит: Alder Biopharmaceuticals Inc

A new class of antibodies having specificity for glycoproteins are described. The antibodies are shown to bind sensitively and specifically to mannosylated proteins, such as proteins produced by fungi. Assays using these anti-glycoprotein antibodies for monitoring the presence of glycoproteins in a sample are provided. Such methods can be used to monitor methods for production and/or purification of desired polypeptides, which may be used to modify process parameters to modify (e.g., decrease or increase) the amount of glycosylated polypeptide produced and/or present in the purified product. Also provided are methods of using the subject antibodies for detecting the level of expression and secretion of a polypeptide, and methods of using the subject antibodies to purify or deplete a glycoprotein from a sample. In exemplary embodiments, the desired polypeptide may be a multi-subunit protein, such as an antibody, which may be produced in a yeast, such as Pichia pastoris.
