2. 1. Systems enabling antibody-mediated proteomics research

   Author : Ronny Falk; Sophia Hober; Christer Wingren; KTH; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Antibody generation; dual expression; affinity purification; E. coli expression; Affibody molecules; polyclonal antibody; monospecific antibody; Immunobiology; Immunbiologi;

   Abstract : As many genome sequencing efforts today are completed, we are now provided with the genetic maps for several organisms, including man. With these maps at hand, the scientific focus is now shifting towards investigations of the functionality of proteins. READ MORE

4. 2. Engineering Antibody Specificity Using Combinatorial Antibody Libraries

   Author : Jenny Boström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; antibody Antigen Interactions; Dual Specific Antibodies; Herceptin; Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2; Thermodynamic Analysis; therapeutic Antibody Engineering; Synthetic Phagedisplayed Antibody Libraries; Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor; Bacterial Display; trastuzumab;

   Abstract : The research presented in this thesis investigates antibody specificity, antibody-antigen and protein-protein interactions using combinatorial antibody libraries, phage-display and bacterial display technology. One goal was to develop a method to generate antibodies that bind two protein antigens with high affinity using a single-antigen binding site, and to investigate the molecular and thermodynamic requirements for antibody multispecificity.

5. 3. Methods for Generation and Characterization of Monospecific Antibodies

   Author : Johan Rockberg; Mathias Uhlén; John McCafferty; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; antibody; epitope mapping; HER2; human protein atlas; immunogenicity; proteomics; Bioengineering; Bioteknik;

   Abstract : Recent advances in biotechnology have generated possibilities to investigate and measure parts of life previously left for believers to explain. Utilizing the same book of recipes, the genome, our cells produce selections of proteins at a time and thereby niche into a multitude of specialized cell types, tissues and organs comprising our body.

6. 4. Phenotypic antibody discovery and mining of complex antibody libraries

   Author : Anne Ljungars; Institutionen för immunteknologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antibody discovery; Phage display; Phenotypic screening; Cell selection; Deep mining; Complex phage pools;

   Abstract : Therapeutic antibodies are the fastest growing class of drugs but suffer from a crowded target-space where many antibodies, against a few targets, are developed in parallel. The aim of this thesis is to find methods to enable discovery of novel antibody-target combinations and thereby increase the target-space. READ MORE

7. 5. Generation and characterization of antibodies for proteomics research

   Author : Karin Larsson; Sophia Hober; John McCafferty; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; antibody; antibody validation; immunohistochemistry; immunofluorescence; tissue microarray; Western blot; epitope mapping; antigen design; Bioengineering; Bioteknik;

   Abstract : Specific antibodies are invaluable tools for proteomics research. The availability of thoroughly validated antibodies will help to improve our understanding of protein expression, localization and function; fundamental processes and features of all living organisms. READ MORE
