Apparent binding affinity constants were determined using surface plasmon resonance on a Biacore X100 instrument (GE Healthcare). The complementary primer sequences (Supplementary methods), of which one was functionalized with biotin on the 5′ end, were combined and diluted in HBS-P buffer (10 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 0.15 M NaCl, 0.005% Surfactant P20). The DNA substrate was immobilized in one of two flow channels on a streptavidin coated sensor chip SA (GE Healthcare). Kuwt and Kucore were diluted in HBS-P buffer and their association to DNA was recorded by injecting protein at a flow rate of 30 μl/min for 180 s. The dissociation phase was observed for 600 s by flowing HBS-P buffer followed by surface regeneration using 0.2 M NaOH. Triplicates were run for each concentration and the responses were background corrected by subtracting the signal from the non-modified flow channel. The resulting sensograms were fitted to the standard kinetic interaction model provided by the Biacore system for interaction of an analyte with a heterogeneous ligand.

SPR for the measurement of kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of the binding of purified anti-ROR1 and anti-ROR2 Fabs to ROR1 and ROR2 antigens and for epitope binning studies were performed on a Biacore X100 instrument using Biacore reagents and software (GE Healthcare). A mouse anti-human IgG CH2 mAb was immobilized on a CM5 sensor chip using reagents and instructions supplied with the Human Antibody Capture Kit (GE Healthcare). hFc-hROR1 and hFc-hROR2 fusion proteins were captured at a density not exceeding 1,000 RU (Suppl. Figs. S3 and S7). Each sensor chip included an empty flow cell for instantaneous background depletion. All binding assays used 1× HBS-EP+ running buffer (10 mM HEPES, 150 mM NaCl, 3 mM EDTA (pH 7.4), and 0.05% (v/v) Surfactant P20) and a flow rate of 30 μL/min. For affinity measurements, all Fabs were injected at five different concentrations, one of which was tested in duplicate. The sensor chips were regenerated with 3 M MgCl2 from the Human Antibody Capture Kit without any loss of binding capacity. Calculation of association (kon) and dissociation (koff) rate constants was based on a 1:1 Langmuir binding model. The equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) was calculated from koff/kon. For epitope binning studies, each Fab was prepared at 500 nM alone or in a mixture in 1× HBS-EP+ running buffer.

Interactions between the anti-DARC BMFPs and DARC were studied by SPR, using a Biacore X100 instrument (GE Healthcare). All experiments were performed in HBS-EP (Hepes buffer saline EDTA surfactant P20) buffer (GE Healthcare) at 25°C. For studying the binding of Nb-αDARC, Nb-αDARC-P18F2, Nb-αDARC-P18F3, and Nb-αDARC-P18F4 to DARC, DARC-ECD1 was immobilized on the analysis Fc2 channel of a CM5 chip (GE Healthcare) by amine coupling, whereas DARC-ECD1-Mut was immobilized on the reference channel Fc1. Both channels were then blocked with 1 M ethanolamine-HCl (pH 8.5). BMFPs were injected at 30 μl min−1 in dilution series (0.1 to 125 μM) over the coated chips. Between the injections, the chip surface was regenerated with two injections of 15 μl of 10 mM HCl (pH 2.0). The specific binding responses to the molecular targets were obtained by subtracting the response given by the analytes on Fc2 with the response on Fc1. The kinetic sensorgrams were fitted to a global 1:1 interaction Langmuir model, and the koff and kon values were calculated using the manufacturer’s software (Biacore X100 Evaluation version 2.0).

The affinity of the constructed ANAMs for β‐catenin or NF‐κB proteins was measured by surface plasmon resonance using a Biacore X100 instrument (GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden). Briefly, the CM5 sensor chip (GE Healthcare) was preequilibrated with running buffer prior to the immobilization of ligands onto the chip surface and activated with 0.05 M N‐hydroxysuccinimide (NHS; GE Healthcare) and 0.2 M 1‐ethyl‐3‐(3‐dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDC; GE Healthcare). Each protein was then injected into the flow cells of the sensor chip, and amine coupling chemistry was used for covalently attaching ligands to the sensor chip surface. After immobilization of the ligand, the chip surface was deactivated with 1 M ethanolamine hydrochloride to block the remaining unreacted groups. DNA template oligonucleotides for ANAMs were transcribed into RNA using the MEGA‐shortscript T7 kit (Life Technologies). Then various concentrations of the ANAMs were injected over the sensor surface for 1.5 min at 5 μL/min, and subsequently analyzed for equilibrium binding properties.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The affinity of the interaction between CIP and C3d was evaluated with a BIAcore X100 instrument (GE Healthcare). Human C3d was covalently immobilized on a dextran matrix CM5 sensor chip surface with a C3d solution (30 μg/ml in 50 mM sodium acetate buffer, pH 5) diluted 1:1 with N-hydroxysuccinimide and N‑ethyl‑N′‑(3‑dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride. The excess of active groups on the dextran matrix was blocked with 1 M ethanolamine (pH 8.5). On another flow cell, the dextran matrix was treated as previously described but without any ligand to provide an uncoated reference flow cell. The running buffer used was PBS containing 0.005% (v/v) Tween 20. A 2-fold linear dilution series (5 μM up to 0.0390 μM) of CIP in running buffer were passed over the ligand at the flow rate of 45 ml/min, and all the sensorgrams were recorded at 22°C. Surface regeneration was achieved by injecting a solution of 25 mM NaOH. Association and dissociation kinetics parameters (Ka and Kd) and the equilibrium dissociation constant Kd were estimated with a 1:1 interaction model (Langmuir model) by nonlinear fitting, using BIAevaluation 1.0 software (GE Healthcare).

All binding and kinetics studies were performed on a Biacore X-100 instrument (GE Healthcare) by surface plasma resonance (SPR). The sensor biochip CM5 was activated using EDC/NHS at 10 μL/min for 7 minutes. Goat anti-human IgG Fc mAb was immobilized on two flow cells of the CM5 sensor chip at a concentration of 25μg/ml in 10 mM sodium acetate buffer (pH 5.0) for 7 min at 10 μL/min. HBS–EP was used as the running buffer and blank runs were performed with HBS–EP buffer (or an appropriate buffer for all other experiments). The sample was injected onto the senser chip with a flow rate of 10 μL/min. A series of antigen concentrations including 6.25 nM, 12.5 nM, 25 nM, 50 nM and 100 nM were injected consecutively, each with a contact time of 120 seconds and a dissociation time of 1800 seconds. The chip was regenerated using 3 M magnesium chloride. The datas were analyzed using the BiacoreX100 analytical and evaluation softwares (GE Healthcare). The dissociation rate constant (kd) and the association rate constant (ka) were calculated by a global fitting analysis. The first dissociation equilibrium constant (KD1) was determined from the ratio of the rate constants: KD = kd / ka.
