Monoclonal antibodies and derived fragments are used extensively both experimentally and therapeutically. Thorough characterization of such antibodies is necessary and includes assessment of their thermal and storage stabilities. Thus, assessment of the underlying conformational stabilities of the antibodies is also important. We recently documented that non-reducing SDS-PAGE can be used to assess both monoclonal and polyclonal IgG domain thermal unfolding in SDS. Utilizing this same h2E2 anti-cocaine mAb, in this study we generated and analyzed various mAb antibody fragments to delineate the structural domains of the antibody responsible for the observed discrete bands following various heating protocols and analysis by non-reducing SDS-PAGE. Previously, these domain unfolding transitions and gel bands were hypothesized to stem from known mAb structural domains based on the relative thermal stability of those CH2, CH3, and Fab domains in the absence of SDS, as measured by differential scanning calorimetry. In this study, we generated and analyzed F(ab’)2, Fab, and Fc fragments, as well as a mAb consisting of only heavy chains, and examined the thermally induced domain unfolding in each of these fragments by non-reducing SDS-PAGE. The results were interpreted and integrated to generate an improved model of thermal unfolding for the mAb IgG in SDS. These results and the model presented should be generally applicable to many monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies and allow novel comparisons of conformational stabilities between chemically or genetically modified versions of a given antibody. Such modified antibodies and antibody drug conjugates are commonly utilized and important for experimental and therapeutic applications. mAb F(ab’)2 fragments exhibit multiple unfolded states in non-reducing SDS-PAGE. Fab and Fc mAb fragments do not exhibit similar multiple unfolded state bands. Previous mAb domain unfolding pathway in SDS is revised based on fragment analyses. A heavy chain only mAb variant is detected and exhibits multiple unfolded states. These results are likely relevant to analyses of many monoclonal and polyclonal Abs.
