The Specific Biopanning of Single-domain Antibody Against Haptens Based
on a Functionalized Cryogel
Abstract
Phage display technology is commonly applied for high-throughput
screening of single-domain antibodies (sdAbs), and the problem of
non-specific adsorption caused by carrier proteins is often faced during
the biopanning of single-domain antibodies against haptens. Therefore,
an enrofloxacin (ENR)-functionalized cryogels was prepared for
application in the biopanning of ENR-specific phages, which was prepared
by the ethylenediamine (EDA) and carbodiimide methods. To improve the
efficiency of biopanning, double blocking, a wash solution flow rate of
1 ml/min and phage pre-incubation were applied to the biopanning process
through single-factor experiments. The results of flat colony counting
showed that the phage output of AG-ENR cryogels was 15 times higher than
the phage output of AG cryogels for the same input amount. And 7
complete sequences of ENR-specific shark sdAbs were obtained by
monoclonal phage ELISA and sequence alignment. All these results
indicated that AG-ENR cryogels can improve the efficiency of
hapten-specific phages biopanning and this study provided a novel and
efficient method for phage biopanning for single-domain antibody to
haptens.
