Functional tests: inhibitory capacity against plasma-derived ADAMTS13 in a Bethesda-like assay determining the residual ADAMTS13 activity assessed by FRETS-VWF73 (in %). Binding pattern assays included affinity analysis by SPR (Biacore), specificity tests by ELISA (Figure 3), and epitope mapping performed by either conformational CLIPS technology and dot-blot technique on either recombinant full-length or on ADAMTS13 stop mutant (MDTCS-13, consisting of ADAMTS13–metalloprotease–disintegrin–thrombospondin type I repeat number 1–cys-rich and spacer domain MDTCS) (supplemental Materials).
