Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Murine monoclonal antibody 1A4A1 has been shown to recognize a conserved neutralizing epitope of envelope glycoprotein E2 of Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus. It is a potential candidate for development of a second generation antibody for both immunodiagnosis and immunotherapy. In order to minimize the immunogenicity of murine antibodies and to confer human immune effector functions on murine antibodies, a recombinant gene fusion was constructed. It encoded a human IgG1 heavy chain constant region and a single-chain fragment variable antibody of 1A4A1. After expression in bacteria as inclusion bodies, the recombinant antibody was purified and refolded in vitro. The recombinant soluble antibody was demonstrated to retain high antigen-binding affinity to Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus and to possess some human IgG crystallizable fragment domain functions, such as recognition by protein G and human complement C1q binding. On non-reducing and reducing gel electrophoresis analysis of proteolytic fragments of the recombinant antibody, disulfide bond formation was found in the hinge region of the antibody. From these data, it was concluded that the recombinant antibody was capable of antigen recognition, and retained several functional activities. This work forms the basis for characterization of the recombinant antibody as to efficacy in vivo.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
