Antibody Engineering

Antibody Characterization

Antibody Engineering

Antibody engineering stands as a pivotal pillar in modern biotechnology, offering tailored solutions to optimize antibody properties for therapeutic precision and efficacy. Our company's expertise in antibody engineering encompasses strategic approaches such as humanization, affinity maturation, and leveraging advanced technologies for enhanced design and functionality.

Antibody Humanization: Bridging Species for Therapeutic Success

  • CDR & SDR Grafting

Our company excels in grafting Complementarity-Determining Regions (CDRs) and Structural Determining Regions (SDRs) from non-human antibodies into human framework regions, preserving antigen specificity while minimizing immunogenicity in human hosts.

  • Chain Replacement and Screening

Through strategic chain replacements, our experts modulate antibody effector functions and pharmacokinetics, tailoring antibodies for specific therapeutic applications. Screening from a comprehensive human whole-IgG library ensures the selection of optimized candidates with desired binding affinities and biological activities.

Strategy of Antibody Maturation: Fine-Tuning for Optimal Performance

  • Random Mutation

Our company employs iterative cycles of random mutation to diversify antibody sequences, leading to enhanced binding affinities and specificities against target antigens. This strategy is pivotal for refining antibody characteristics to meet stringent therapeutic requirements.

  • Site-Directed Mutagenesis and Other Techniques

Precise modifications through site-directed mutagenesis further optimize antibody functionalities, such as modulating binding kinetics or enhancing effector functions. Leveraging advanced mutagenesis methods ensures controlled modifications tailored to therapeutic goals.

Utilizing Proprietary Human Antibody Databases and Modeling Tools

  • Human Antibody Databases

Our company harnesses proprietary human antibody databases, enriched with diverse sequences and structural data, to inform rational design strategies. This wealth of information aids in selecting optimal frameworks and guiding humanization efforts for improved clinical outcomes.

  • Electronic Modeling and Design

Advanced electronic modeling techniques enable predictive assessments of antibody-antigen interactions, structural stability, and pharmacokinetic properties. These modeling tools empower precise design iterations, accelerating the development of optimized therapeutic antibodies.

Antibody Characterization

Characterization of antibodies is a meticulous process pivotal for ensuring their efficacy, specificity, and safety in various biomedical applications. Our company's expertise in antibody characterization spans a comprehensive suite of assays and methodologies, delivering precise insights into antibody behavior and functionality.

Affinity Determination

  • Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR)

Our company employs SPR to measure real-time interactions between antibodies and antigens, providing quantitative data on binding kinetics and affinities crucial for therapeutic efficacy assessments.

  • Fluorescence-Activated Cell Sorting (FACS)

Utilizing FACS enables high-throughput analysis of antibody binding to cell surface proteins, offering insights into cellular interactions and targeted delivery potentials.

Functional Assays

  • Biochemical Assays

Assessing antibody functions, such as enzyme inhibition or receptor modulation, through biochemical assays validates their intended mechanisms of action and therapeutic potentials.

  • Antigen Binding Tests

Utilizing diverse platforms such as SPR and ELISA at both protein and cellular levels enables comprehensive evaluations of antibody-antigen interactions in relevant physiological contexts.

Comprehensive Characterization

  • Competition Experiments

Studying competitive binding with known ligands elucidates epitope specificity and potential cross-reactivity, essential for understanding antibody targeting breadth.

  • Ligand and Receptor Blocking Assays

Assessing antibody abilities to block ligand-receptor interactions aids in deciphering downstream signaling pathways and therapeutic interference potentials.

  • Signaling Pathways and Functional Assays

Investigating antibody-induced signaling events, cellular responses (proliferation, apoptosis), and intracellular cytokine staining through techniques.

Cutting-edge Cellular Assays

  • Proliferation Assays

Utilizing CFSE, BrdU assays measures antibody impacts on cell proliferation, survival, and metabolic activities, crucial for assessing therapeutic efficacy.

  • Cell Screening in 2D and 3D Cultures

Evaluating antibody effects in complex cellular environments, including 3D cultures, mirrors physiological conditions and aids in predicting in vivo responses accurately.

Phage Display Approach

Our company's phage display approach is a cornerstone in its antibody discovery arsenal. By utilizing human naïve libraries, libraries from antigen immunization, and targeted antibody fragment libraries, our company can rapidly identify high-affinity antibodies against specific targets. The process of biopanning and affinity screening ensures the selection of antibodies with optimal binding properties, followed by hit confirmation and IgG conversion for downstream applications.

Hybridoma Approach

In tandem with phage display techniques, our company's hybridoma approach offers a robust alternative for antibody discovery. Through meticulous animal immunization protocols and efficient hybridoma clone generation methods, our company excels in generating monoclonal antibodies tailored to diverse target types. Screening of hybridoma cells and sequencing of positive clones further validate the efficacy and specificity of these antibodies.
