Abstract excerpt
V(H)Hs from naive libraries have dissociation constants (K(D)s) in the low micromolar range and thus, for most antibody applications, their intrinsic affinities need to be improved significantly. Non-targeted in vitro affinity maturation approaches based on indiscriminate randomization of complementarity-determining region (CDR) residues or random mutagenesis of conventional antibody variable domains have been...
