Abstract excerpt
The influence of framework residues belonging to VH and VL modules of antibody molecules on antigen binding remains poorly understood. To investigate the functional role of such residues, we have performed semi-conservative amino acid replacements at the VH-VL interface. This work was carried out with (i) variants of the same antibody and (ii) with antibodies of different specificities (Fab fragments 145P and...
