Construction of Human Recombinant ScFv Phage Libraries from the Advanced Stages of Breast Carcinoma Patients
Advances in the field of antibody engineering, and the emergence of powerful screening technology such as filamentous phage display allowed to generate fully human antibodies with high affinities against virtually any desired target from immune or even naIve human repertoires. As a result, the immunogenicity problems related to applications of nonhuman based recombinant antibodies as therapeuti...
متن کاملRecombinant scFv Antibodies against P30 Surface Protein of Toxoplasma Gondii
Background & Aims: Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate, intracellular parasite, which is widely spread in the world. The parasite is able to infect all warm-blooded hosts including humans and farm animals. The infection in humans often occurs after the ingestion of raw or undercooked meat containing tissue cysts. Several methods have been applied to detect this parasite in contaminated foods. Reco...
متن کاملIdentification of Antigenic Glycans from Schistosoma mansoni by Using a Shotgun Egg Glycan Microarray.
Infection of mammals by the parasitic helminth Schistosoma mansoni induces antibodies to glycan antigens in worms and eggs, but the differential nature of the immune response among infected mammals is poorly understood. To better define these responses, we used a shotgun glycomics approach in which N-glycans from schistosome egg glycoproteins were prepared, derivatized, separated, and used to g...
متن کاملMUC1 glycopeptide epitopes predicted by computational glycomics
Bioinformatic tools and databases for glycobiology and glycomics research are playing increasingly important roles in functional studies. However, to verify hypotheses generated by computational glycomics with empirical functional assays is only an emerging field. In this study, we predicted glycan epitopes expressed by a cancer-derived mucin, MUC1, by computational glycomics. MUC1 is expressed...
متن کاملGlycan Pattern Search
Glycans are branched tree-like molecules composed by building blocks linked together by chemical bonds. The molecular structure of a glycan can be encoded into a direct acyclic graph where each node represents a building block and each edge serves as a chemical linkage between two building blocks. In this context RDF is a possible software solution for storing structures and SPARQL can be direc...
