MVsim is a toolset for quantifying and designing multivalent interactions

Abstract: Arising through multiple binding elements, multivalency can specify the avidity, duration, cooperativity, and selectivity of biomolecular interactions, but quantitative prediction and design of these properties has remained challenging. Here we present MVsim, an application suite built around a configurational network model of multivalency to facilitate the quantification, design, and mechanistic evaluation of multivalent binding phenomena through a simple graphical user interface. To demonstrate the utility a… Show more

“…We recently reported MVsim, a graphical user-interface-based simulator for predicting multivalent binding kinetics with a comprehensive mechanistic model. , Here, we applied MVsim toward predictions of multivalent binding to motivate our protein designs (Figure A,B). Despite differences in the panning format, by modeling the dissociation kinetics of two ligand-target pairs with significantly different monovalent dissociation rate constants, we can gain insights into expected differences in the dissociation time scales between monovalent and bivalent presentation formats.…”

“…(C) Test selections of SLP76 using our bivalent RD system. Table shows published kinetic rate constants for WT and the single-alanine-substituted mutants P241A and L243A, , and the schematic shows bivalent and monovalent ligand-target binding, with binding-ablating mutations on the second peptide in the monovalent template to minimize other changes (such as translation efficiency or nonspecific binding) that could occur if the peptide length was changed. (D) Two binary libraries containing mRNA templates for WT and P241A (in bivalent or monovalent formats) at a ratio of 10:1 were subjected to panning against bivalent Gads-SH3C with 60 min wash and analyzed by qPCR.…”

“…Experimental methods are routinely used to study monovalent kinetics by injecting soluble antigen over immobile antibodies (10) and more recently, methods have been developed to study spatial tolerance by measuring an apparent affinity for precisely spaced antigens (11, 12). Mathematical methods are also available in certain limits (7, 9, 19, 20) but a method that can directly fit binding of antibodies to a random distribution of anchored antigen at a given density is presently unavailable. Here, we developed a fast spatial and stochastic particle-based method to directly fit antibody binding to random antigens enabling estimates of monovalent on/off-rates, the bivalent on-rate, and the molecular reach.…”
