Antibody framework residues affecting the conformation of the hypervariable loops.
Journal of molecular biology - 20 Mar 1992
Foote J, Winter G
Abstract excerpt
Rodent monoclonal antibodies have been "humanized" or "reshaped" for therapy by transplanting the antigen-binding loops from their variable domains onto the beta-sheet framework regions of human antibodies. However, additional substitutions in the human framework regions are sometimes required for high affinity antigen binding. Here we describe antigen binding by a reshaped antibody derived from the mouse...
