Unlocking the Potency of Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin: Structural Insights, Immunological Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Frontiers

2026-08-25

Abstract excerpt

Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) is a large copper-containing glycoprotein derived from the marine gastropod Megathura crenulata. Originally functioning as an oxygen transport molecule, KLH has gained considerable attention in biomedical research due to its exceptional immunogenic and immunostimulatory properties. Its complex quaternary structure, extensive glycosylation, and xenogeneic origin contribute to its abi...
