The influence of antibody engineering on Fc conformation and Fc receptor binding properties: Analysis of FcRn-binding engineered antibodies and an Fc fusion protein

Therapeutic immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies have comparatively long half-lives because the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) binds to the IgG Fc at acidic pH in the endosome and protects IgG from degradation. To further prolong the half-lives, amino acid-substituted antibodies having high affinity to Fc...
