Circulating antibodies are highly selective binding reagents directed to a vast repertoire of antigens. Candidate antigens displayed as overlapping peptides on microarrays can be used to screen for recognition by serum antibodies from clinically well-defined patient populations. The methodology is robust and enables unbiased visualization of antigen-specific B-cell responses. Additionally, autoantibody signatures of diagnostic value could be detected using microarrays displaying thousands of human peptides.
