The Antibody Molecule
'The Antibody Molecule' is a beautifully illustrated review of the remarkable developments within immunology from the discovery of the antibody molecule to its exploitation in medicine and the scientists and pioneers who were involved. This engaging and authoritative history will appeal to a wide audience
Antibody Engineering
The exquisite binding specificity of antibodies has made them valuable tools from the laboratory to the clinic. Since the description of the murine hybridoma technology by Köhler and Milstein in 1975, a phenomenal number of mo- clonal antibodies have been generated against a diverse array of targets. Some of these have become indispensable reagents in biomedical research, while others were developed for novel therapeutic applications. The attractiveness of an- bodies in this regard is obvious—high target specificity, adaptability to a wide range of disease states, and the potential ability to direct the host’s immune s- tem for a therapeutic response. The initial excitement in finding P...
Introduction to Antibody Engineering
This highly readable textbook serves as a concise and engaging primer to the emerging field of antibody engineering and its various applications. It introduces readers to the basic science and molecular structure of antibodies, and explores how to characterize and engineer them. Readers will find an overview of the latest methods in antibody identification, improvement and biochemical engineering. Furthermore, alternative antibody formats and bispecific antibodies are discussed. The book’s content is based on lectures for the specializations “Protein Engineering” and “Medical Biotechnology” within the Master’s curriculum in “Biotechnology.” The lectures have been held at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna, in cooperation with the Medical University of Vienna, since 2012 and are continuously adapted to reflect the latest developments in the field. The book addresses Master- and PhD students in biotechnology, molecular biology and immunology, and all those who are interested in antibody engineering.
Protein Structure Prediction : A Practical Approach
The three-dimensional structure of proteins is a key factor in their biological activity. There is an increasing need to be able to predict the structure of a protein once its amino-acid sequence is known; this book presents practical methods of achieving that ambitious aim, using the latest computer modelling algorithms. - ;The prediction of the three-dimensional structure of a protein from its sequence is a problem faced by an ever-increasing number of biological scientists as they strive to utilize genetic information. The increasing sizes of the sequence and structural databases, the improvements in computing power, and the deeper understanding of the principles of protein structure have led to major developments in the field in the last few years. This book presents practical computer-based methods using the latest computer modelling algorithms. -
Antibody Engineering Protocols
This comprehensive collection of recently developed methods for producing new antibody reagents by immunization and recombinant DNA techniques contains ready-to-use protocols that illuminate current areas of research on antibody structure, functions, and applications. The methods can be applied in basic immunological studies involving antibody specificity, catalysis, and evolution, and in the isolation of rare antibodies by phage display technology and the engineering of new antibodies by mutagenesis. They offer insight into new ways of developing clinically useful antibody reagents. Antibody Engineering Protocols constitutes a single-source volume for laboratory investigators who want to minimize extensive literature and methodology searches and to work productively in their fields with reproducible step-by-step protocols.
Antibody Engineering
In presenting a practical overview of the engineering of recombinant human or mouse monoclonal antibodies, the book incisively addresses essential topics such as antibody structure relevant to engineering, recombinatorial cDNA libraries, phage display, synthetic and humanized antibodies, engineering of affinity and biological effector functions, and plant, mammalian, and bacterial expression vectors and hosts. Antibody Engineering, Second Edition - written by leading experts and now thoroughly updated - is a unique resource for current information on the subject.
Immunochemistry
This work offers comprehensive coverage of the chemical and physicochemical aspects of immunological interactions, as well as the molecules and moieties involved in these interactions. It covers in detail the Ag-Ab interaction, including attraction at a distance between epitope and paratope. College or university bookstores may order five or more copies at a special student price, available upon request.
