A functional investigation of antibody Fc-FcRn variant binding guided by <i>in silico</i> free energy perturbation methods

2026-04-30

Abstract excerpt

Accurate calculation of energy changes upon mutation is a key requirement for the effective use of computational methods in protein design. In this study, we applied free energy perturbation (FEP) calculations to predict the effects of mutations on the binding free energy between the immunoglobulin subtype G (IgG) antibody fragment-crystallizable (Fc) region and the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn), an interaction that...
