Abstract excerpt
We have applied a Bacillus subtilis expression-secretion system to produce a functional antidigoxin SCA (single-chain antibody consisting of VL-linker-VH) and the individual variable domains of light (VL) and heavy (VH) chains. The secreted antidigoxin SCA can be affinity purified in one step by applying the culture supernatant directly to a ouabain-Sepharose column. N-terminal sequence determination indicated...
