BISPECIFIC ENGINEERED ANTIBODY DOMAINS (NANOANTIBODIES) THAT INTERACT NONCOMPETITIVELY WITH AN HIV-1 NEUTRALIZING EPITOPE AND FCRN.

Bispecific engineered antibody domains (nanoantibodies) that interact noncompetitively with an HIV-1 neutralizing epitope and FcRn.

Libraries based on an isolated human immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) constant domain 2 (CH2) have been previously diversified by random mutagenesis.However, native isolated CH2 is not very stable and the generation of many mutations could lead to an increase in immunogenicity.Recently, we demonstrated that engineering an additional disulfide bond and remo
