CONSTRUCTION AND USE OF A FUNCTIONALLY HUMAN ANTIBODY LIBRARY WITH MAXIMIZED REPERTOIRE DIVERSITY

摘要

Immunoglobulin libraries are provided that contain randomly assembled FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3 and FR4 sequences of heavy or light chain immunoglobulin variable regions. The libraries exhibit a degree of repertoire diversity not found in natural immune systems and can be used to express novel immunoglobulins. The libraries can be used for screening antibodies with the target specificity of interest. The resultant antibodies can be fully human and non-immunogenic.
