Extrinsic Cotton effects in hapten--carrier and hapten--antibody interactions.
Two homogeneous univalent hapten-protein conjugates, prepared by the covalent attachment of a single 2,4-dinitrophenyl (DNP-) or 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl (TNP-) side chain to the cysteine-SH in the active site of the enzyme papain, have been found to exhibit large Cotton effects in the wavelength region of the absorption bands of the DNP or TNP groups. This indicates that the DNP or TNP groups are ...
متن کاملSingle-chain Fv-streptavidin substantially improved therapeutic index in multistep targeting directed at disialoganglioside GD2.
UNLABELLED Multistep targeting can improve the therapeutic index of antibody-based targeting, particularly relevant to pediatric tumors where acute toxicity and late effects of treatment are major concerns. Neuroblastoma is uniquely suited for such investigations because of its abundance of surface ganglioside GD2. METHODS 5F11scFv (scFv = single-chain variable fragment) was constructed from ...
متن کاملBiophysical insights from a single chain camelid antibody directed against the Disrupted-in-Schizophrenia 1 protein
Accumulating evidence suggests an important role for the Disrupted-in-Schizophrenia 1 (DISC1) protein in neurodevelopment and chronic mental illness. In particular, the C-terminal 300 amino acids of DISC1 have been found to mediate important protein-protein interactions and to harbor functionally important phosphorylation sites and disease-associated polymorphisms. However, long disordered regi...
متن کاملInhibition of tumor angiogenesis by a single-chain antibody directed against vascular endothelial growth factor.
Monoclonal antibody (Ab) directed against the vascular endothelial growth factor, one of the major inducers of angiogenesis, can inhibit tumor growth in mice. Treatment of cancer patients with monoclonal Ab requires large-scale production of the clean Ab and frequent application of the Ab. This might be improved by using single-chain Ab fragments (scFvs), which can be produced in large quantiti...
متن کاملDevelopment and characterization of three recombinant single chain antibody fragments (scFvs) directed against the CD19 antigen.
Antibodies that recognize antigens restricted to leukemia, lymphoma, and normal hematopoietic cells represent a unique opportunity to develop therapeutics, because they have the potential for relatively selective treatment of these diseases. Antibodies that recognize the CD19 antigen found on normal and malignant B cells, but not on stem cells, have been used to develop immunoconjugates. Howeve...
