Abstract
A comprehensive workflow is described to examine three contributing factors to the charge heterogeneity of Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) from a single sample. Intact AAV9 capsids were fractionated using imaged capillary isoelectric focusing (icIEF)-based fractionation, allowing for collection of capsids with different isoelectric points (pIs). Capsid integrity of the fractions was confirmed with analytical icIEF and charge detection mass spectrometry (CD-MS). Using capillary electrophoresis (CE) immunoassays, the capsid protein ratios and capsid protein deamidation were characterized. Additionally, to analyze ssDNA content packaged in each fraction, CE-immunoassay and high-resolution CD-MS were used. This study enhances our understanding of AAVs, by examining the contributions of its attributes to capsid charge heterogeneity.
期刊介绍:
Analytical Chemistry, a peer-reviewed research journal, focuses on disseminating new and original knowledge across all branches of analytical chemistry. Fundamental articles may explore general principles of chemical measurement science and need not directly address existing or potential analytical methodology. They can be entirely theoretical or report experimental results. Contributions may cover various phases of analytical operations, including sampling, bioanalysis, electrochemistry, mass spectrometry, microscale and nanoscale systems, environmental analysis, separations, spectroscopy, chemical reactions and selectivity, instrumentation, imaging, surface analysis, and data processing. Papers discussing known analytical methods should present a significant, original application of the method, a notable improvement, or results on an important analyte.
