Journal ArticleDOI

A peptide mimetic of an anti-CD4 monoclonal antibody by rational design

TL;DR: Using peptide mapping to determine 'active' antigen recognition residues, molecular modeling, and a molecular dynamics trajectory analysis, a peptide mimic of an anti-CD4 antibody is developed, containing antigen contact residues from multiple CDRs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systematic exploration of the antigen binding activity of synthetic peptides isolated from the variable regions of immunoglobulins.

TL;DR: Peptides enclosing one or several of the complementarity determining region (CDR) residues had antigen binding activity, although the most active peptides were not necessarily those bearing the greatest number of CDR residues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Streptabody, a high avidity molecule made by tetramerization of in vivo biotinylated, phage display-selected scFv fragments on streptavidin.

TL;DR: An easy way to increase the functional affinity (avidity) of single chain variable fragments (scFvs) by tetramerization on streptavidin, following their site-specific biotinylation by the enzyme BirA is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human cardiac troponin I: precise identification of antigenic epitopes and prediction of secondary structure

TL;DR: The view is that hcTnI is not a globular protein but probably adopts an extended conformation, allowing a large part of the amino acid sequence of this molecule to be recognized by the immune system.
