Screen of NHP samples with LIB2 CLIPS cyNC Negative control rhNC Negative control cyCVRP rhVRP Signals from peptides containing fragments P41, P391, P470 and the Glycan cap are highlighted. For some of these peptides, signals are stronger than average indicating probable binding. However, only few of the NHP samples show signals that are substantially stronger than the ones observed in the associated negative control sample, thus, such binding is considered non-specific binding. rhCVRP Figure S1
Detection of mAb 6D3 epitope Our analysis for mAb 6D3 assigns four fragments with Q-scores within the range 20 to 70. (a) E201-PVNA-T206 (b) T240-YVQLESRFTPQFLLQLNETIYTSGKRSNT-T270 (c) G286-EWAF-W291 (d) G470-EESASSGKLGLITNTIAGVAGLI-T494 As in the case of mAb 13C6 fragment (d) (residues 470-494) was assigned the largest residues scores. A plot of the amplitude of the binding signals produced during screening of sample 6D3 with all CLIPS from LIB2 is presented in the Figure R1 below (all binding signals are shown in light blue). We found six groups of CLIPS with common sequence motifs for which the signals are markedly higher than average. Screening identifies one CLIPS, containing fragment 261-276, that generated a binding signal far exceeding all others. The Z-score analysis, however, ranks residues in fragment 261-276 with lower R- and Q-scores than fragment 470-494 because LIB2 contains multiple CLIPS with the latter fragment, and many of these peptides generated binding signals of similar strength of peptides containing fragment 261-276. We also note that our methodology weighted fragments (a) and (c) higher than fragments 46-68, 82-97, 518-527 and 648-662 from the raw data (contained in the remaining four (4) groups shown in Figure R1). The reason for these assignments is that (a) and (c) are often found in CLIPS combined with 261-276. Lastly, we note that only fragments (a) and (b) are consistent with the results from Shedlock et al. Figure S2

Same view as in A where one Fab was omitted and the electron density sliced to show the antibody-binding site. The binding site is formed primarily by antigenic fragments P211 and P256.
