Development of a Novel Electrochemical Immunosensor for Rapid and Sensitive Detection of Sesame Allergens Ses i 4 and Ses i 5

Foods
Due to their lipophilicity and low content, the major sesame oleosin allergens, Ses i 4 and Ses i 5, are challenging to identify using conventional techniques.

Enhancement of SARS-CoV-2 Infection via Crosslinking of Adjacent Spike Proteins by N-Terminal Domain-Targeting Antibodies

Viruses, 2023
The entry of SARS-CoV-2 into host cells is mediated by the interaction between the spike receptor-binding domain (RBD) and host angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2).

In vivo pharmacokinetic enhancement of monomeric Fc and monovalent bispecific designs through structural guidance

Communications Biology, 2021
Lu Shan et al. present a structure-guided approach to engineer a monovalent form of the fragment crystallizable (Fc) region of an IgG4 antibody to adapt multiple versions of half-life extension modifications and bispecific targeting.

The therapeutic potential of sialylated Fc domains of human IgG

mAbs, 2021
Pathogens frequently use multivalent binding to sialic acid to infect cells or to modulate immunity through interactions with human sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-type lectins (Siglecs).

Non-covalent Fc-Fab interactions significantly alter internal dynamics of an IgG1 antibody

Scientific Reports, 2022
The fragment-antigen-binding arms (Fab1 and Fab2) in a canonical immunoglobulin G (IgG) molecule have identical sequences and hence are always expected to exhibit symmetric conformations and dynamics.

Characterization and validation of a middle-down hydrophobic interaction chromatography method to monitor methionine oxidation in IgG1

Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis Open, 2023
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) can impact the efficacy of a drug. Methionine oxidation can alter the overall hydrophobicity of an antibody, thereby inducing conformational changes and affecting its ...

Immunoglobulin Glycosylation – An Unexploited Potential for Immunomodulatory Strategies in Farm Animals

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
The function of antibodies, namely the identification and neutralization of pathogens, is mediated by their antigen binding site (Fab). In contrast, the subsequent signal transduction for activation of the immune system is mediated by the fragment ...
