Conservation and diversity in the ultralong third heavy-chain complementarity-determining region of bovine antibodies.
A subset of bovine antibodies have an exceptionally long third heavy-chain complementarity determining region (CDR H3) that is highly variable in sequence and includes multiple cysteines. These long CDR H3s (up to 69 residues) fold into a long stalk atop which sits a knob domain that is located far from the antibody surface. Three new bovine Fab crystal structures have been determined to deciph...
متن کاملOxidation in the complementarity-determining regions differentially influences the properties of therapeutic antibodies
Therapeutic antibodies can undergo a variety of chemical modification reactions in vitro. Depending on the site of modification, either antigen binding or Fc-mediated functions can be affected. Oxidation of tryptophan residues is one of the post-translational modifications leading to altered antibody functionality. In this study, we examined the structural and functional properties of a therape...
متن کاملThe complementarity-determining region sequences in IgY antivenom hypervariable regions
The data presented in this article are related to the research article entitled "Development of IgY antibodies against anti-snake toxins endowed with highly lethal neutralizing activity" (da Rocha et al., 2017) [1]. Complementarity-determining region (CDR) sequences are variable antibody (Ab) sequences that respond with specificity, duration and strength to identify and bind to antigen (Ag) epi...
متن کاملModeling Tertiary Structure of Complementarity Determining Region of Antibodies
Knowing the tertiary structure of proteins is important to predict protein function and to achieve rational drug design. However, huge amounts of money and time are needed to determine tertiary structures by experimental method. Only a small number of protein structures have been experimentally determined; therefore, prediction of the tertiary structure of proteins by computer should be of grea...
متن کاملSmall antibody fusion proteins with complementarity-determining regions and lidamycin for tumor targeting therapy
Gelatinases are overexpressed in several types of maligancies and tumor stromal cells. Lidamycin is an enediyne antitumor antibiotic, which is composed of an apoprotein (LDP) and an active chromophore (AE). It is known that the heavy-chain complementarity-determining region-3 (CDR3) domain of scFv is important in antibody affinity. The aim of this study was to prepare the enediyne-energized fus...
