Griffin Overview
Griffin for Polyclonal Antibody Sequencing
- Are you suffering from batch-to-batch variability in your polyclonal antibodies?
- Are you having trouble sourcing donors with the needed reactivity?
- Sick of poorly characterized products in your assays?
Griffin brings your polyclonal antibody into the bioreactor
A 3 stage process de-risks your project with Go/No Go decision points
STAGE 1
Assess clonality to determine complexity and specificities.

STAGE 2
Full-length antibody sequencing and assembly.

STAGE 3
Expression and validation
Curious to see what’s in your polyclonal?
Griffin Deliverables
Sequences – Full sequence information for all hits identified by Griffin.
Binding report – Binding evaluation of all sequences.
Expressed antibodies – Transient production of candidates.

Resources and Publications
Alicanto® integrates next-generation sequencing analysis of antibody repertoires with computational mass spectrometry measurements of antibody proteins. The early algorithmic foundation for Alicanto® was developed at the Computer Science and Engineering Department at the University of California – San Diego.
