Abstract | Although computational structure prediction has had great successes in recent years, it regularly fails to predict the interactions of large protein complexes with residue-level accuracy, or even the correct orientation of the protein partners. The performance of computational docking can be notably enhanced by incorporating experimental data from structural biology techniques. A rapid method to probe protein-protein interactions is hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS). HDX-MS has been increasingly used for epitope-mapping of antibodies (Abs) to their respective antigens (Ags) in the past few years. In this paper, we review the current state of HDX-MS in studying protein interactions, specifically Ab-Ag interactions, and how it has been used to inform computational structure prediction calculations. Particularly, we address the limitations of HDX-MS in epitope mapping and techniques and protocols applied to overcome these barriers. Furthermore, we explore computational methods that leverage HDX-MS to aid structure prediction, including the computational simulation of HDX-MS data and the combination of HDX-MS and protein docking. We point out challenges in interpreting and incorporating HDX-MS data into Ab-Ag complex docking and highlight the opportunities they provide to build towards a more optimized hybrid method, allowing for more reliable, high throughput epitope identification. |
