High-level secretion of recombinant monomeric murine and human single-chain Fv antibodies from Drosophila S2 cells
12 Dec 2011
Abstract excerpt
Single-chain variable fragment (scFvs) antibodies are small polypeptides (∼26 kD) containing the heavy (V(H)) and light (V(L)) immunoglobulin domains of a parent antibody connected by a flexible linker. In addition to being frequently used in diagnostics and therapy for an increasing number of human diseases, scFvs are important tools for structural biology as crystallization chaperones. Although scFvs can be...
