Abstract excerpt
An interesting format in the development of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies uses the crystallizable fragment of IgG1 as starting scaffold. Engineering of its structural loops allows generation of an antigen binding site. However, this might impair the molecule's conformational stability, which can be overcome by introducing stabilizing point mutations in the CH3 domains. These point mutations often affect the...
