‘Mono’ means one and 'clone' means identical copy. Monoclonal antibodies are, therefore, identical copies of one type of antibody. Antibodies bind to specific antigens on pathogens. This means ...

Antibodies bind to specific antigens on pathogens. This means that only one type of antibody will bind to a matching antigen. For example, an antibody that can recognise an antigen on the ...

Cell lines commonly used for monoclonal antibody expression include Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) and human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells. But even if researchers have worked with these wild ...

Antibodies that bind to a previously untargeted portion of the malaria parasite could lead to new monoclonal antibody treatments and vaccines for malaria. A novel class of antibodies that binds to ...

Even without their snake venom antigen, acid-switched antibodies were recycled at higher levels than their wild type counterparts. Nicholas Casewell, a molecular biologist from Liverpool School of ...

This article explores how broadly neutralizing antibodies are being researched, not only for their potential in the ...

Anti-malarial monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are another promising new tool that have been shown to be safe and efficacious against infection with Plasmodium falciparum, which is the deadliest ...
