Abstract excerpt
Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules are membrane-anchored heterodimers that present antigenic peptides to T cells. Expression of these molecules in soluble form has met limited success, presumably due to their large size, heterodimeric structure and the presence of multiple disulfide bonds. Here we have used directed evolution and yeast surface display to engineer soluble single-chain human...
