Gene Synthesis> | … The Muc1-Bi-1 bispecific antibody was constructed by linking 2 single domain antibodies, anti-Muc1-VHH (GenBank: FJ799116.1) and anti-CD16-VHH [23] (Fig 1A) by gene synthesis (Genscript) and cloned into the pET21a or pET26b plasmid … | Get A Quote |
Muc1 is one of the most studied tumor antigens. However, antibodies or antibody-toxin conjugates against Muc1 have not shown significant efficacy for tumors with Muc1 overexpression. In this study, we employed bispecific antibody approach to target Muc1 positive tumor cells. A novel bispecific antibody, Muc1-Bi-1, was constructed by linking single domain antibodies, anti-Muc1-VHH and anti-CD16-VHH. Muc1-Bi-2, the humanized form of Muc1-Bi-1, was also constructed by grafting. Both Muc1-Bi bispecific antibodies can be efficiently expressed and purified from bacteria. In vitro, the Muc1-Bi bispecific antibodies can recruit Natural Killer (NK) cells to drive potent and specific cell killing of Muc1-... More
