Researchers develop hybrid antibody with improved immune activation

The IgG3 hinge provides broad Fc spatial mobility spectra and flexibility relative to M protein. Credit: Nature Communications (2024). DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-47928-8 Antibodies can be likened to keys, with antigens as the corresponding locks. Each antibody is uniquely shaped to fit a specific antigen, much like a key fits its particular lock. The precise ability to bind to disease-causing proteins makes antibodies invaluable for researchers developing new treatments. Pontus Nordenfelt and Arman Izadi are researchers at Lund University and more or less antibody designers. In the laboratory, they have developed antibodies Read More
