<div class = "text-blocks"><div class = "text-block"><div class = "justify" style = "text-align:left">The humanized antibody mainly refers to the antibody which is re-expressed by the mouse monoclonal antibody by gene cloning and DNA recombination technology, and most of the amino acid sequence is substituted by the human sequence, and the affinity and specificity of the parent mouse monoclonal antibody are substantially retained, and the antibody is reduced. Its heterogeneity is beneficial to the human body.</div></div><div class = "text-block"><div class = "justify" style = "text-align:left"> </div></div><div class = "text-block"><div class = "justify" style = "text-align:left">Chimeric antibody</div></div><div class = "text-block"><div class = "justify" style = "text-align:left">The variable region of the mouse antibody gene is recombined with the constant region of the human antibody gene by DNA recombination technology, and the recombinant gene is introduced into the myeloma cell for expression.

Genes, making the construction of antibody libraries simple and easy to manipulate. One is the establishment of phage display technology to achieve the unification of genotype and phenotype, providing a highly efficient screening system, which is the core of phage antibody technology. The other is to secrete a fragment of an immunoglobulin molecule that expresses binding ability from Escherichia coli.</div></div><div class = "text-block"><div class = "justify" style = "text-align:left"> </div></div><div class = "text-block"><div class = "justify" style = "text-align:left"><span>Phage antibody libraries unite phenotypes and genotypes. Combining the selection ability and the amplification ability, it has a powerful screening function, which can simulate the antibody production process in vivo in vitro, and make the antibody engineering technology enter a new era. The development of phage antibody library technology has made it possible to obtain antibodies without immunization in vitro. Because it occurs in vitro, it does not rely on the antibody recognition and presentation system in vivo, and can theoretically produce antibodies against any substance. At present, phage antibody library technology is also insufficient. For example, antibody affinity obtained from an antibody library of an immunized animal is high, limited by the conversion rate of the foreign gene, and the storage capacity of the antibody library is insufficient to cover the antibody diversity of some animals. Therefore, a large-capacity antibody library is the key to obtaining high-affinity antibodies and </span><a href="https://www.creativebiolabs.net/Anti-CD19-fully-human-monoclonal-antibody-MDX-1342-32078.htm" style = "text-decoration:underline;color:blue;cursor:pointer;"><span style = ":;:UNDERLINE;">fully human monoclonal antibody</span></a><span> against rare antigens.</span></div></div><div class = "text-block"><div class = "justify" style = "text-align:left"> </div></div><div class = "text-block"><div class = "justify" style = "text-align:left">B.

The antibody system that recognizes antigens and mobilizes antigens in mice remains intact, and it is easy to recognize human proteins as foreign bodies. In addition, since the antibody is produced in vivo, it undergoes normal equipment and maturation processes to ensure a high target binding affinity of the finished product. However, transgenic mice also have some drawbacks, that is, transgenes usually have in vivo cell mutations and other unique sequences leading to incomplete human sequences. Moreover, since the antibodies are assembled in mice, the resulting monoclonal antibodies have a murine glycosylation pattern, so these monoclonal antibodies are ultimately not fully humanized.</div></div></div>
