Coevolved Canonical Loops Conformations of Single-Domain Antibodies: A Tale of Three Pockets Playing Musical Chairs

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Single-domain antibodies (sdAbs) are a promising class of biotherapeutics with unique structural traits within their paratope region. The distribution of canonical conformations explored by their complementarity determining region (CDR) loops differs to ...

Specific attributes of the VL domain influence both the structure and structural variability of CDR-H3 through steric effects

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Antibodies, through their ability to target virtually any epitope, play a key role in driving the adaptive immune response in jawed vertebrates. The binding domains of standard antibodies are their variable light (VL) and heavy (VH) domains, both of ...

Design and Production of Bispecific Antibodies [PDF]

open access: yesAntibodies, 2019
With the current biotherapeutic market dominated by antibody molecules, bispecific antibodies represent a key component of the next-generation of antibody therapy. Bispecific antibodies can target two different antigens at the same time, such as simultaneously binding tumor cell receptors and recruiting cytotoxic immune cells.

The Metabolic Chemical Reporter Ac46AzGal Could Incorporate Intracellular Protein Modification in the Form of UDP-6AzGlc Mediated by OGT and Enzymes in the Leloir Pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2021
Galactose is a naturally occurring monosaccharide used to build complex glycans that has not been targeted for labeling as a metabolic reporter. Here, we characterize the cellular modification of proteins by using Ac46AzGal in a dose- and time-dependent ...

Computational Design of Epitope-Specific Functional Antibodies

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: The ultimate goal of protein design is to introduce new biological activity. We propose a computational approach for designing functional antibodies by focusing on functional epitopes, integrating large-scale statistical analysis with multiple ...

Acquisition of antibody isotypes against Plasmodium falciparum blood stage antigens in a birth cohort. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Information on the period during which infants lose their maternally derived antibodies to malaria and begin to acquire naturally their own immune responses against parasite antigens is crucial for understanding when malaria vaccines may be best ...

Evolution of phage display libraries for therapeutic antibody discovery

open access: yesmAbs, 2023
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and their derivatives have emerged as one of the most important classes of biotherapeutics in recent decades. The success of mAb is due to their high versatility, high target specificity, excellent clinical safety profile ...

Fv antibodies to aflatoxin B1 derived from a pre-immunized antibody phage display library system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The production and characterization of recombinant antibodies to aflatoxin B[SUB1] (AFB[SUB1]), a potent mycotoxin and carcinogen is described. The antibody fragments produced were then applied for use in a surface plasmon resonance-based biosensor ...
