- Epitope diversity
- Functional from the start
Antibody Generation Platform
How It Works.
The novel technology behind our Antibody Generation platform gives us the ability to sequence antibody proteins directly from a complex mixture, using mass spectrometry. We call this technology REpAb®. This means one can access the actual functional native antibodies circulating in the blood, and take full advantage of the natural immune response.

- Epitope mapping data from HDX-MS workflow
“Our cutting edge antibody discovery service can select the very best antibodies out of millions of naturally evolved forms. REpAb® starts with a complex mixture of antibodies known to have affinity for your target. From there, we employ proprietary chemistry and various separation techniques, followed by dozens of LC-MS/MS runs and other mass spectrometry experiments. The resulting data is analyzed by our own de novo sequencing and assembly algorithms to produce full length IgG sequences.
Quality vs Quantity of Hits.
We find the very best antibodies (typically 5-20) out of millions of naturally evolved forms, and can return additional sequence info for hundreds of antibodies in each cluster.
Binding Strength.
A variety of binding strength, typically in the picomolar to nanomolar affinity range. Kinetic profiling available to aid in selection (on rate, off rate, epitope binning).
Epitopic Diversity.
Since we are isolating the functional native immune response from serum, our approach naturally selects for a variety of epitopes. Furthermore, it is biased towards the biologically relevant epitopes insofar as it is natural for the immune system to evolve to produce an abundance of antibodies that ‘work’.
Functional Screening and Validation.
Prior to REpAb® sequencing, the pAb itself can be put through a batter of functional assays to ensure the sample in the tube is fit-for-purpose. This overcomes limitations seen in single-cell isolation techniques which are known to suffer from very high attrition rates.
Immunogenicity and Developability.
REpAb® is an in vivo approach that isolates the native immune response. As such it reduces the risk of immunogenicity issues and provides highly developable leads.
Protein Sequencing Technology
REpAb® starts with a complex mixture of antibodies known to have affinity for your target (i.e. an affinity purified pAb). From there, we employ proprietary chemistry and various separation techniques, followed by dozens of LC-MS/MS runs and other mass spectrometry experiments. The resulting data is analyzed by our own de novo sequencing and assembly algorithms to produce full length IgG sequences.

Model Species and Cross Species Homology
REpAb® is species agnostic and can be used in almost any species and has been used with a variety of hosts to date: Rabbit, Alpaca, Sheep, Dog, Chicken, Human, Mouse, Goat, etc. We can test antibodies to ensure they work in other model species as part of your campaign.
Immunization
We have experience with tolerance breaking strategies such as using novel immunization, adjuvant and modification techniques to elicit an immune response. Additionally, a unique advantage of the REpAb® platform for tolerance busting is using different host species to raise antibodies against conserved proteins.
“Rapid Novor was tasked with finding highly specific, high affinity antibodies against an important target- and they delivered powerful antibodies fit-for-purpose. Such antibodies are not easily obtained yet the Rapid Novor approach proved immediately successful, despite our time-constrained and stringent demands.”
