Embodiment 1

[0216] Example 1. Generation of bispecific antibodies by hybridization of attached DNA oligos

[0217] As described in more detail below, the present invention demonstrates that conjugation of double-stranded phosphorothioated DNA oligonucleotides to antibodies enables the antibodies to penetrate cells, recognize and bind intracellular antigens. Furthermore, Applicants demonstrate that this strategy enables the generation of cell-penetrating bispecific antibodies capable of recognizing and binding two intended intracellular target proteins. For example, Applicants show that sense and antisense linking of phosphorothioated DNA oligonucleotides to anti-STAT3 and anti-NFkB (p65) antibodies allows hybridization of selected nucleic acid sequences. After the hybridization procedure is complete, the bound antibody is purified by expected increased molecular weight compared to a single IgG-antibody ( figure 1 ).

Embodiment 2

[0220] Example 2. Recognition of intracellular antigens STAT3 and NFkB(p65) by cell-penetrating bispecific antibodies

[0221] Human lymphoma Ly3 cells were incubated with single antibodies raised against STAT3 or NFkB (p65) modified with phosphorothioated single-stranded (ss) DNA oligomers to achieve recognition of intracellular targets ( figure 2 ). Since NFkB(p65) IgG is modified with phosphorothioated sense ssDNA-oligomers, and STAT3 IgG is modified with phosphorothioated antisense ssDNA-oligomers, Applicants conclude that the nucleic acid sequence is not critical for intracellular delivery. Crucially, the intracellular delivery is a prerequisite for the recognition of intracellular antigens.

[0222] However, incubation of human lymphoma Ly3 cells with bispecific anti-STAT3-anti-NFκB(p65) linked together by hybridizing phosphorothioated dsDNA oligonucleotides resulted in intracellular STAT3 protein and NFkB(p65) protein simultaneous identification.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Provisional Application No. 62 / 202,006, filed August 6, 2015, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety and for all purposes. [0003] Statement Regarding Rights to Inventions Under Federally Sponsored Research and Development [0004] This invention was made with support under Grant Number R01CA122976 provided by the National Institutes of Health and National Cancer Institute. The government has certain rights in this invention. [0005] Background of the invention [0006] Compared to other types of drugs such as small molecule drugs, antibodies have proven to be an effective drug form due to their ease of production, specificity, and biological durability. Current antibody therapies can only target extracellular molecules. However, many important targets for disease therapy and disease diagnosis are intracellular. For example, many transcription factors such as...
