A technique for the solid-phase conjugation of ferritin to monovalent antibodies (Fab-fragments of immunoglobulin G) is described in which Fab-fragments from sheep antiserum to rabbit Fab-fragments are first adsorbed to Sepharose containing insolubilized

Monovalent Fab' immunoglobulin fragments from endemic pemphigus foliaceus autoantibodies reproduce the human disease in neonatal Balb/c mice. [PDF]
Fogo selvagem (FS) is an autoimmune disease caused by IgG autoantibodies to desmoglein I (DG-I), a desmosomal glycoprotein. We have previously shown that the autoantibodies in these patients are pathogenic and restricted mainly to the IgG4 subclass.

Function of Individual 30S Subunit Proteins of Escherichia coli . Effect of Specific Immunoglobulin Fragments (Fab) on Activities of Ribosomal Decoding Sites [PDF]
Specific anti-30S protein immunoglobulin G fragments (Fab) were used to determine the contribution of each of the 30S ribosomal proteins to: (1) polyphenylalanine synthesis, (2) initiation factor-dependent binding of fMet-tRNA, (3) T-factor-dependent ...

Effect of IgG fragments in IVIG(pH4)on phagocytosis of sensitized erythrocytes by macrophage
Objective To research the effect of the Fc, Fab and F(ab′)2 fragments of immunoglobulin G, the main components of Human Immunoglobulin(pH4) for Intravenous Injection(IVIG), on the phagocytic function of macrophages derived from THP-1 cells. Methods First

The Fab region of IgG impairs the internalization pathway of FcRn upon Fc engagement
Disrupting the association between the Immunoglobulin G constant fragment (Fc) and the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) by engineered antibodies is a promising strategy to reduce autoantibody levels in autoimmune diseases.

With increased accessibility and tissue penetration, smaller antibody formats such as antibody fragments (Fab) and single chain variable fragments (scFv) show potential as effective and low-cost choices to full-length antibodies.
