Development of a Rapid Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) Identity Testing Platform through Comprehensive Intact Mass Analysis of Full-Length AAV Capsid Proteins

Josh Smith,
Felipe Guapo,
Lisa Strasser
et al.

Abstract: Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are commonly used as vectors for the delivery of gene therapy targets. Characterization of AAV capsid proteins (VPs) and their post-translational modifications (PTMs) have become a critical attribute monitored to evaluate product quality. Liquid chromatography−mass spectrometry (LC−MS) analysis of intact AAV VPs provides both quick and reliable serotype identification as well as proteoform information on each VP. Incorporating these analytical strategies into rapid good manufact… Show more

“…Since SDS-PAGE and Western blotting are only semi-quantitative methods to estimate VP levels, we set out to develop a quantitative LC workflow to accurately determine VP ratios. Using a hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography with fluorescent detection (HILIC-FLR)-based separation approach as first described by Liu et al in 2020 [ 18 ], we developed an AAV5-specific gradient for the separation of VP proteins using difluoroacetic acid (DFA) as a mobile phase modifier, slightly adapted from the method described by Smith et al [ 19 ]. After separation ( Figure 5 ), ratios were calculated based on FLR peak areas and an assumption that the sum of VP1, 2 and 3 peaks accounted for 60 protein copies in the capsid, whereby a theoretical ratio sum of 12 (1:1:10, VP1/VP2/VP3) was used for the quantitative estimation of VP ratios [ 19 ] (full data available in Supplementary Materials Table S1 ).…”

The ACG start codon was found to have the lowest amount of VP1 and also the lowest ratios of VP1/VP2 and VP1/VP3, which was in agreement with the profiles seen in the SDS-PAGE analysis for this construct (Table 1).…”
