  1. ka and kd values were estimated by globally fitting the BLI response intensity (nm) as a function of scFv concentration (nM) with the Octet Data Analysis Software, using a 1:1 Langmuir binding model. KD was calculated as kd/ka. Errors for ka and kd are reported as standard errors of the mean calculated from the fitting curves.
