Highly efficient method of preparing human catalytic antibody light chains and their biological characteristics

Abstract: The ultimate goal of catalytic antibody research is to develop new patient therapies that use the advantages offered by human catalytic antibodies. The establishment of a high-throughput method for obtaining valuable candidate catalytic antibodies must be accelerated to achieve this objective. In this study, based on our concept that we can find antibody light chains with a high probability of success if they include a serine protease-like catalytic triad composed of Ser, His, and Asp on a variable region of t… Show more

“…By joining Asp 1 or Asp 34 , it might be preferable for constructing such a triad. The amino acids Asp 1 , Ser 27a , and His 27d are identical to those of the A18b germ line gene that were found, as previously reported, to all possess amidase activity (16). …”

“…The tendency of the amidase activity of the light chain 22F6 to cleave synthetic substrates differs considerably from that of the other human light chains, such as chains 1, 6, 8, 10, 11, and 18, reported in a previous study (16). The 22F6 light chain seems to possess an enzymatic feature partly of trypsin and partly of factor Xa.…”

“…IgV 2E6 uses the same serine protease-like nucleophilic mechanism for Aβ hydrolysis as catabodies directed to other polypeptide targets (Planque et al 2004; Reshetnyak et al 2007; Hifumi et al 2012). As the nucleophilic reactivity is a germline antibody property developed by Darwinian evolution, the consistent serine protease protease-like mechanism of catabodies is not surprising.…”

“…We described antibodies and antibody fragments to HIV gp120 (34), the Staphylococcus aureus virulence factor Efb (20) and the autoantigen amyloid ␤ (47) with neutralizing activity attributable to the catalytic function. The group of Uda and Hifumi has described catalytic antibody fragments to bacterial and viral target antigens that reduce infection in experimental animal models (48,49). Autoimmune disease is associated with increased catalytic antibodies to autoantigens, and numerous examples of pathogenic catalytic autoantibodies have been reported (50 -54; for review see Ref.…”
