Cyclization of Single-Chain Fv Antibodies Markedly Suppressed Their Characteristic Aggregation Mediated by Inter-Chain VH-VL Interactions

Single-chain Fv (scFv) antibodies are recombinant proteins in which the variable regions of the heavy chain (VH) and light chain (VL) are connected by a short flexible polypeptide linker. ScFvs have the advantages of easy genetic manipulation and low-cost production using <i>Escherichia coli&l...
