Abstract excerpt
Using the well-characterized antibody McPC603 as a model, we had found that the Fv fragment can be isolated from Escherichia coli as a functional protein in good yields, whereas the amount of the correctly folded Fab fragment of the same antibody produced under identical conditions is significantly lower. In this paper, we analyse the reasons for this difference. We found that a variety of signal sequences...
