Recombinant Fragment Antibody Customization Service

Antibodies/antibody fragments produce specific and efficient binding properties to antigens and play irreplaceable roles in biochemical, therapeutic and diagnostic fields. The traditional hybridoma technology for the production of monoclonal antibodies has become a bottleneck for the large-scale and rapid production of antibodies/antibody fragments due to its own relatively long research and development cycle and the relatively high cost of production. In recent years, with the continuous progress of genetic recombination and bioengineering technology, high-throughput screening and large-scale production of antibodies/antibodyfragments have become a reality.

Antigen-binding fragment (Fab) is the region on the antibody that binds to the antigen. It contains a constant region and a variable region for each heavy and light chain. Only the variable regions of the heavy and light chains are fused together to form a single-chain variable fragment (scFv), which is half the size of the Fab fragment but retains its original specificity. Another type of small antibody fragment, single domain antibody, also known as domain antibody, VHH, VNAR or sdAb, is an antibody fragment consisting of a single monomeric variable antibody structural domain lacking the conventional light and heavy chain CH structural domains.

Tek Biotech is a professional CRO service provider, which can provide our customers with high quality recombinant antibody expression services, such as scfv antibody fragment, fab antibody fragment, sdAb single domain antibody, heavy chain antibody and other recombinant antibody construction and expression services. In addition, Tek Biotech is currently building a 5,000 square meters GMP research center, which is capable of providing batch recombinant antibody production services for various industrial customers.

Strain/Cell

Specificities

E.coli

BL21(DE3)

Ion-ompT,which effectively prevents intracellular hydrolysis of recombinant proteins

Rosetta

The Rosetta (DE3) strain contains the pRARE plasmid, which is chloramphenicol-resistant and provides tRNAs for the rare codons of AUA, AGG, AGA, CUA, CCC, and GGA, which provides more “universal” protein expression and thus enhances the expression of target proteins.

Mammalian Cell

CHO-S

A commonly used cell line in the laboratory, grows well as an adherent wall and suspension culture with high productivity, ideal for large-scale cultures and GMP procedures; can be subjected to many post-translational modifications to obtain biosimilars, displaying excellent biocompatibility and drug activity; is suitable for protein-free, animal-production-free, and serum-free culture conditions, and offers improved stability and safety.

CHO-K1

Freestyle 293F

A class of wild-type 293 cell lines capable of highly expressing proteins in the absence of serum with high efficiency.

Expi 293F

Has a highly transfectable line, demonstrates high protein expression levels, and exhibits more rapid cell growth and higher culture survival than standard suspension-adapted 293 cells.


 Antibody Fragment High Expression Strategy


Optimization method

Characterization

Fusion Antibody

When Fab gene is expressed, the Fd gene and L chain gene, which carry the bacterial protein signal peptide gene at the 5' end, can be expressed in the periplasmic lumen of the E. coli cell wall in an endocrine fashion, forming a complete stereo-fold.The Fab fragment retains the antigen-binding specificity and biological activity of the parental antibody.The Fd gene fragment and L chain gene can be constructed in two vectors separately and then cotransfected into the cells, or they can be constructed in one vector to transfect cells for expression.

Modification of the Antibody Sequence Itself

Upon targeted mutagenesis, the amino acids of the antibody at certain key sites can be altered to optimize its stability, enhance its affinity for the antigen, and increase its expression yield.

Selection of Expression Systems

Factors that should be considered are: experimental equipment, toxicity of the antibody to be expressed, nutrients required, the need for high antibody yields, antibody purification processes, production costs, regulatory elements, and biosafety aspects.

Codon Optimization

Natural antibodies/scFv are derived from eukaryotic organisms, whose codons are most likely not preferred by E.coli. The use of preferred codons improves cellular adaptation to the environment and the antibody, and reduces the misfolding rate of recombinant antibodies.

Conditional Optimization

Factors to be considered include temperature, medium ratio, pH, incubation time and induction conditions.
