background:epidermal growth factor receptor (egfr) overexpression is a characteristic of several malignancies and could be considered as an excellent target for designing specific inhibitors such as anti-egfr monoclonal antibodies for cancer therapy. drawbacks exerted by large sizes of full-length antibodies have lead to the development of single chain antibodies, which benefit from having smal...

Background:Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) overexpression is a characteristic of several malignancies and could be considered as an excellent target for designing specific inhibitors such as anti-EGFR monoclonal antibodies for cancer therapy.

Objective(s): We previously conducted an in silico research on the interactions between the ribosome display-selected single chain variable fragment (scFv) and factor H binding protein (fHbp) of Neisseria meningitidis. We found that heavy chain variable (VH) fragment of this scFv had considerable affinity to fHbp. These results led us to evaluate the ability of this sm...

mammalians express several subclasses of the igg molecule. in human being there are four homologous igg subclasses, each of which is structurally unique and has different functions. quantification of igg subclasses is fundamental to clinical assessment and diagnosis of many diseases as such assessments depends on the availability of subclassspecific antibodies (abs), particularly monoclonal ant...
