Since June 2014 I have worked in the Antigen Design Core. Our team is responsible for designing the immunogens behind our line of antibodies. In order to provide antibody excellence, we design antigens based on specificity, immunogenicity, protein structure and application.In an effort to optimize our process, I have been developing a Java program that automatically performs Uniprot BLAST searches and MUSCLE protein alignments for target proteins. This program includes tools for developers to analyze proteins to determine prime antigenic regions.
