Jack is applyng to Gate's foundation for a grant to make a high affinity, humanized monoclonal antibody that could neutralize venom, a 7 kDa protein of 62 amino aicds, from cobra snakes. He argues that many people in tropical areas are bitten by the poisonous snakes and may need injection of this life-saving anitbody more than once. His friend has successfully purified the 7kDA venom protein expressed in E. coli in a large quantity and will give him whatever he needs for his project. Among more than 100 candidates, what can he do to identify those that recognize the venom?
