Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, these single domains have a short half-life in vivo, thus limiting their therapeutic value
[0011] It has been suggested that heavy chain variable domains of different specificities be joined together to produce bispecific antibody fragments (as described above), but this strategy has the disadvantage that the isolated antibody variable domains may have a domain that normally interacts with the light chain. Acting hydrophobic interface, which is exposed to solvent and can be sticky, allowing the single domain to bind to the hydrophobic surface
Furthermore, the combination of two or more distinct heavy chain variable domains lacking a light chain partner and possibly through a hydrophobic interface prevents them from binding one rather than two ligands that they would be able to bind independently
Moreover, in this case, the heavy chain variable region does not combine with the complementary light chain variable region, so the stability is poor and the folding is easy to open (Worn and Pluckthun, Biochemistry 37:13120-7 (1998))

[0324] Preparation of immunoglobulin-based multispecific ligands

[0325] Whether the dual-specific ligand of the present invention is based on the open or closed conformation in the expected configuration of the invention, it can be prepared according to the previously established technology applied in antibody engineering. Such as preparation of scFv, phage antibody and other engineered antibody molecules. Examples of techniques for preparing antibodies, particularly bispecific antibodies, are described in the following reviews and citations: Winter & Milstein, (1991) Nature 349:293-299; Plueckthun (1992) Immunological Reviews 130:151-188; Wright et al. , (1992) Crti.Rev.Immunol.12: 125-168; Holliger, P. & Winter, G.

[0483] Example 1: Screening of bispecific scFv antibody (K8) against human serum albumin (HSA) and β-galactosidase (β-gal)

[0484] This example illustrates a method for preparing bispecific antibodies against β-gal and HSA, selected for binding to β-gal and germline (mock) V H area connected to V κ Variable region repertoire, selected for ability to bind HSA and germline (mock) V κ area connected to V H variable region library. Then combine the selected V H HSA and Vκβ-gal variable regions, and antibodies were selected based on their ability to bind β-gal and HAS. HSA is a half-life enhancing protein found in human blood.

[0485] Four human phage antibody libraries used in this experiment.

[0496] Example 2: Characterization of K8 Antibody Binding Performance

[0497] First, the binding properties of the K8 antibody were characterized by monoclonal phage ELISA. Use 100 μl of HSA and β-gal at a concentration of 10 μg / ml in PBS together with alkaline phosphatase (APS), bovine serum albumin (BSA), peanut agglutinin, lysozyme and cytochrome C (to check cross-reactivity ) to coat 96-well plates overnight at 4°C. Phagemids from K8 clones were rescued with KM13 as described by Harrison et al. (1996) and the phage-containing supernatants (50 [mu]l) were analyzed directly. A standard ELISA procedure (Hoogenboom et al., 1991) was then performed using an anti-M13-HRP conjugate to detect bound phage. When the absorption signal displayed on the surface of the phage is greater than 1.0, it is found that the bispecific K8 antibody can bind HAS and β-gal ( Figure 4 ). Strong binding to BSA was also observed ( Figure 4 ). Since HSA and BSA are 76% homologous at the amino ...
