Abstract |
Computational analysis of next-generation sequencing data (NGS; also termed deep sequencing) enables the analysis of affinity screening procedures (or biopanning experiments) in an unprecedented depth and therewith improves the identification of relevant peptide or antibody ligands with desired binding or functional properties. Virtually any selection methodology employing the direct physical linkage of geno- and phenotype to select for desired properties can be leveraged by computational analysis. This article describes a concept how relevant ligands can be identified by harnessing NGS data. Thereby, the focus lays on improved ligand identification and describes how NGS data can be structured for single-round analysis as well as for comparative analysis of multiple selection rounds. Especially, the comparative analysis opens new avenues in the field of ligand identification. The concept of computational analysis is described at the example of the software tool "AptaAnalyzer (TM) ." This intuitive tool was developed for scientists without special computer skills and makes the computational approach accessible to a broad user range. |
