The present disclosure relates to novel modular methods for generating a diversity of N-glycans of high mannose, hybrid and complex types. The present disclosure also relates to exemplary arrays of the synthesized N-glycans spotted onto aluminium oxide coated slides. These arrays can be used to detect and analyze binding interactions between the synthesized N-glycans and glycan binding molecules, such as HIV-1 neutralizing antibodies. The present disclosure also relates to methods for identifying agents that bind to various types of molecules on the arrays and to defining the structural elements of the molecules on the arrays that bind to those agents. The arrays and methods provided herein may be used for general epitope identification, drug discovery and as analytical tools. The present disclosure also provides useful glycans and epitope determinants that are useful in detecting, diagnosing, recurrence monitoring and preventing pathological diseases such as HIV.
本公开涉及一种新颖的模块化方法,用于生成多种高甘露糖、混合型和复合型 N-聚糖。本公开内容还涉及将合成的 N-聚糖点缀在涂有氧化铝的载玻片上的示例阵列。这些阵列可用于检测和分析合成的 N-聚糖与聚糖结合分子(如 HIV-1 中和抗体)之间的结合相互作用。本公开内容还涉及识别与阵列上各类分子结合的制剂的方法,以及确定阵列上与这些制剂结合的分子的结构元素的方法。本文提供的阵列和方法可用于一般表位鉴定、药物发现和分析工具。本公开内容还提供了有用的聚糖和表位决定因子,可用于检测、诊断、复发监测和预防艾滋病毒等病理疾病。
