title: [Expression and Characterization of Single-chain Fv-Fc Fusion Protein against Human P185(erbB2)].
abstract: In order to increase therapeutic effects and decrease immunogenicity of mouse McAb, the single-chain Fv (scFv) created by fusing the light and heavy chain variable region genes of anti-human P185(erbB2) McAb was conjugated to the Fc gene of human IgG1 to construct a scFv-Fc fusion gene. The scFv-Fc fusion gene was cloned into the expression vector pCIDN. The scFv-Fc fusion protein was synthesized as secreted two-chain molecule in CHO cells, and purified by affinity chromatography on recombinant protein A. A special 185 kD P185(erbB2) protein was immunoprecipitated by the scFv-Fc fusion protein. The fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) using SK-BR-3 cells as the target indicated that the fusion protein could bind to the extracellular domain of P185(erbB2). The affinity of the scFv-Fc fusion protein, determined by ELISA, was K=7.5x10(-10) (mol/L)(-1). This work laid basis for further studies on the anti-P185(erbB2) scFv-Fc fusion protein.
