Next generation Fc scaffold for multispecific antibodies

iScience, 2021
Summary: Bispecific antibodies (Bispecifics) demonstrate exceptional clinical potential to address some of the most complex diseases. However, Bispecific production in a single cell often requires the correct pairing of multiple polypeptide chains for ...

Virus-transformed pre-B cells show ordered activation but not inactivation of immunoglobulin gene rearrangement and transcription [PDF]

, 1991
Virus-transformed pre-B cells undergo ordered immunoglobulin (Ig) gene rearrangements during culture. We devised a series of highly sensitive polymerase chain reaction assays for Ig gene rearrangement and unrearranged Ig gene segment transcription to ...

Two Cases of Heavy Chain MGUS

Case Reports in Oncological Medicine, 2016
Heavy chain diseases are rare variants of B-cell lymphomas that produce one of three classes of immunoglobulin heavy chains, without corresponding light chains. We describe two patients with asymptomatic heavy chain monoclonal gammopathy.

Immune subtraction for improved resolution in serum protein immunofixation electrophoresis and antibody isotype determination in a patient with autoantibody

Practical Laboratory Medicine, 2021
Heavy chain isotypes of low level monoclonal immunoglobulins are sometimes obscured in serum immunofixation electrophoresis (SIFE) by a heavy background of polyclonal immunoglobulins.

Expressions of immunoglobulin M and immunoglobulin D heavy chain in B-chronic lymphocytic leukemia and their correlation with CD38 expression

Iraqi Journal of Hematology, 2017
Background: B-chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a monoclonal malignancy characterized by an accumulation of small mature-looking B lymphocytes in the blood, bone marrow, and other tissues.

Expansion of the preimmune antibody repertoire by junctional diversity in Bos taurus. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Cattle have a limited range of immunoglobulin genes which are further diversified by antigen independent somatic hypermutation in fetuses. Junctional diversity generated during somatic recombination contributes to antibody diversity but its relative ...

Inhibition by small-molecule ligands of formation of amyloid fibrils of an immunoglobulin light chain variable domain. [PDF]

, 2015
Overproduction of immunoglobulin light chains leads to systemic amyloidosis, a lethal disease characterized by the formation of amyloid fibrils in patients' tissues. Excess light chains are in equilibrium between dimers and less stable monomers which can

Immunoglobulin genes and diversity: what we have learned from domestic animals

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2012
This review focuses on the diversity of immunoglobulin (Ig) genes and Ig isotypes that are expressed in domestic animals. Four livestock species—cattle, sheep, pigs, and horses—express a full range of Ig heavy chains (IgHs), including μ, δ, γ, ϵ, and α ...

Presence of two different immunoglobulin heavy chains in individual cells of established human hematopoietic cell lines.

Journal of Immunology, 1968
Presence of γ-, α- and µ-heavy chains of immunoglobulin was examined in cultured cells of established human hematopoietic cell lines. Combinations of a fluorescein-conjugated antibody of one specificity and a tetramethylrhodamine-conjugated antibody of
