Affinity Maturation Enhances Antibody Specificity but Compromises Conformational Stability
Summary: Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have recently emerged as one of the most promising classes of biotherapeutics. A potential advantage of B cell-derived mAbs as therapeutic agents is that they have been subjected to natural filtering mechanisms, which may enrich for B cell receptors (BCRs) with...
