Abstract excerpt
We have examined the plasticity of the antigen-combining site of a high-affinity antibody. In phage-displayed Fab libraries, selected CDR positions and one FR position of the humanized anti-Her2 antibody hu4D5 were substituted with all 20 amino acids. Antigen-binding selections were used to enrich for high-affinity variants, and a large number of sequences were obtained prior to convergence of the selected pool...
