요약A technology, Plasma Induced Modification of Biomolecules (PLIMB), has been developed for measuring three-dimensional (3-D) structural characteristics of proteins. It is used to perform hydroxyl-radical protein footprinting (HRPF) wherein a protein's solvent-accessible side chains are oxidized in solution using a hydroxyl-radical source and then analyzed with mass spectrometry. Although a technology like PLIMB can be used for many different applications, the unique characteristics of the technology and data it can produce may prove it to be uniquely qualified for the role of mapping the epitopes, or binding locations, of protein therapeutics to their target molecules. This is a crucial aspect of drug development and is important for drug optimization and intellectual-property filings. Although several proof-of-concept experiments demonstrating PLIMB's utility have been performed, additional research and development must be completed before PLIMB can be considered a viable option for epitope mapping. We hypothesize that by implementing technological improvements, processes, and methods, the epitopes for protein therapeutics can be mapped with PLIMB.This work first demonstrates the use of PLIMB for mapping the epitope of an antibody/antigen pair. Experimentation and data analysis using this procedure was effective, as several regions of the antigen were identified as the epitope region, which agree with previously published results.To address the recurring issue of variability in PLIMB data, a feedback-control system was developed, which uses UV-spectroscopy to measure hydroxyl radical generation in real time. Samples of the amino acid methionine were exposed to plasma and the amount of oxidation was measured with mass spectrometry. The results showed a reduction in the coefficient of variation between replicate samples from 15% to 6% when using the feedback control system, thus demonstrating its utility.To extract solvent accessibility measurements from PLIMB data, a procedure developed by other HRPF researchers was used. Samples of the protein myoglobin were exposed to various plasma-exposure times. Then a reactivity-normalized oxidation rate was calculated for several myoglobin amino acids. Results showed a linear correlation between reactivity-normalized oxidation rates and solvent-accessibility measurements generated from a published 3-D structure of myoglobin, and a root-mean-squared error in calculated solvent accessible surface areas of 24.98 A2 .
