The impact of antibody glycoforms on FcγRIIa activation and immune responses is poorly understood. Yet, glycoform binding assessment remains one of the major analytical challenges requiring long enrichment or glycoengineering steps. Here, we developed and applied an affinity capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry approach to selectively assess the binding of different antibody glycoforms to the FcgIIa receptor without the need of glycoengineering. The approach required only low microgram amounts of antibody and receptor and enables assessing the binding of high and lowabundance glycoforms. The approach indicated clear differences in binging between doubly-, hemi-glycosylated and non-glycosylated antibodies as well as for mutated (Leu234Ala, Leu235Ala - Pro329-Gly (LALA-PG)) IgG1 antibodies silenced for Fcg binding. The LALA-PG mutated antibody showed no binding to the FcgIIa receptor (excluding potential non-specific binding effects) while the non-glycosylated IgG1 showed a strongly reduced, but still minor binding. The highest binding affinity was for the antibody carrying two complex-type glycans. Man5 glycans resulted in decreased binding compared to complex-type glycans, with the lowest binding for the IgG containing two Man5. For complex-type glycans, galactosylation showed a subtle increase in binding to the FcgIIa receptor, and sialylation showed an increase in binding for lower sialylated species. Fucosylation did not influence binding to the FcgIIa receptor. Finally, the assay was evaluated for the two variants of the FcγRIIa receptor (allotypes H131 and R131) showing highly comparable glycoform selectivity. Overall, the proposed approach allows the direct comparison of binding affinities of different antibody species in mixtures promising a fast establishment of their structure-function relationships.
