Protein Science, Volume 34, Issue 3, March 2025.Abstract In this work, we have generated bispecific interleukin (IL)‐12 surrogate agonists based on camelid‐derived single‐domain antibodies (sdAbs) targeting the IL‐12 receptor (IL‐12R) subunits IL‐12Rβ1 and IL‐12Rβ2. Following immunization and antibody display‐based paratope isolation, respective sdAbs were combinatorially reformatted into a ...
