Abstract

Characterizing changes to structure and behavior is an important aspect of therapeutic protein development. NMR spectroscopy is well suited to study interactions and higher-order structure that could impact biological function and safety. We used NMR diffusion methods to describe the overall behavior of proteins in solution by defining a "diffusion profile" that captures the complexities in diffusion behavior. Diffusion profiles offer a simple means to interpret protein solution behavior as a distribution of sizes and association states. As a characterization method, diffusion profiling is well suited to complement and augment traditional biophysical and NMR methods to probe the solution behavior of therapeutic proteins.
