Noninvasive evaluation of tertiary structures is fundamental to the research, development, and use of the biologics. However, few methodologies are currently available for evaluating large molecular weight (MW) biologics, such as therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs; 150 kDa). Here, we have newly developed a15N direct detection nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique, the15N direct detection CRINEPT, which allows the observation of the main chain amide resonances of a nondeuterated protein with MW 150 kDa. The technique not only substantially expands the range of proteins applicable to solution NMR studies but also allows the noninvasive structural analyses of intact mAbs in a wide range of temperature and solvent conditions. As a proof of principle, we successfully acquired the15N-detected CRINEPT spectra of an intact mAb in its formulated solution at 4 °C. The technique was able to discriminate heterogeneous galactosylation states, demonstrating the benefit of high resolution of the15N direct detection.
