AutoFox® Protein Footprinting System Provides Amino Acid Resolution for Protein HOS Studies
ABSTRACT
Using the Fox® System, researchers have advanced the understanding of therapeutic HOS by exploring epitope/paratope mapping, aggregation-interface identification, formulation, and small molecule binding. The Fox System, a novel HRPF technique, employs hydroxyl radicals (•OH) to irreversibly modify solvent-exposed amino acid side chains, revealing changes in solvent accessibility and uncovering buried or exposed regions. This presentation will discuss the Fox System, its application in characterizing biotherapeutic HOS and future innovations.
SPEAKER
Dr. Emily Chea received her PhD while studying with Professor Dr. Lisa Jones at the University of Maryland, Baltimore. Emily has made significant contributions to the development of HRPF, with particular emphasis on in-cell FPOP (IC-FPOP) for proteome-wide structural biology characterization of cellular drug–target interactions. Currently, Emily is a key member of the GenNext scientific team in her role as an Applied Research Scientist Manager.
