Abstract
Multifunctional antibodies, capable of simultaneously engaging multiple targets, are a unique class of antibodies that have sparked growing interest. Current approaches for making multifunctional antibodies, including chemical conjugation or genetic modifications, suffer from low product yield, complex structure design, and complicated manufacturing processes. In this study, we report a modular post-translational platform with highly specific protein–protein interactions for multifunctional antibody assembly and an elastin-like polypeptide (ELP) for easy purification. We generated and purified multifunctional antibodies with over 90% assembled scaffold and overall product purity. Additionally, we assembled antibodies with diverse applications, including detecting cancer, inhibiting cancer cell growth, and directing T cells to cancer cells for enhanced therapeutic efficacy. This platform offers high assembly efficiency, easy purification, and modularity for the redesign of antibody functions.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces is a leading interdisciplinary journal that brings together chemists, engineers, physicists, and biologists to explore the development and utilization of newly-discovered materials and interfacial processes for specific applications. Our journal has experienced remarkable growth since its establishment in 2009, both in terms of the number of articles published and the impact of the research showcased. We are proud to foster a truly global community, with the majority of published articles originating from outside the United States, reflecting the rapid growth of applied research worldwide.
