The Matić Lab @maticlab.bsky.social · 15/02/2026At low dilution (~0.1–1 µg/mL), AbD64138 SpyTag HRP enables detection of otherwise elusive poly-ADPr. At high dilution (~0.01–0.1 µg/mL), it can reduce costs ~10× compared to other tools when poly-ADPr levels are abundant. 000
The Matić Lab @maticlab.bsky.social · 15/02/2026While also available in synthetic rabbit/mouse IgG and biotinylated formats, the community will particularly benefit from the SpyTag HRP format. As with the widely used mono-ADPr antibody AbD43647 (Longarini et al. Mol Cell 2023), the high sensitivity of SpyTag HRP has two important advantages.⬇️ 100
The Matić Lab @maticlab.bsky.social · 15/02/2026Obtained by extending our programmable Ser-ADPr technology (Bonfiglio et al. Cell 2020) through a new phage display strategy, this first modular poly-ADPr antibody detects species from di-ADPr to long chains with no cross-reactivity toward mono-ADPr (preprint below; manuscript under revision). 000

The Matić Lab @maticlab.bsky.social · 09/02/2025These new antibody development efforts align with our vision that the fundamental discovery of Serine ADP-ribosylation can be converted into a technology that transforms the study of ADP-ribosylation and related PTMs. 000
The Matić Lab @maticlab.bsky.social · 09/02/2025This preprint is part of a larger manuscript on additional antibodies and their applications to biological questions. The goal of this preprint is to share these poly-ADPr with the community without delay, as we believe they wil benefit many laboratories. 010
The Matić Lab @maticlab.bsky.social · 09/02/2025As with our other tools, the AbD64138 clone should become widely accessible in a few months. For those familiar with our popular AbD43647 antibody, the new AbD64138 clone provides similar advantages for poly-ADPr as AbD43647 does for mono-ADPr. 000
