Development of a 1:1-binding biparatopic anti-TNFR2 antagonist by reducing signaling activity through epitope selection

Abstract Conventional bivalent antibodies against cell surface receptors often initiate unwanted signal transduction by crosslinking two antigen molecules. Biparatopic antibodies (BpAbs) bind to two different epitopes on the same antigen, thus altering crosslinking ability. In this study, we develop...
