Abstract: A bivalent binding agent having a first monovalent binder that binds to a polypeptide epitope of a target polypeptide, a second monovalent binder that binds to a posttranslational polypeptide modification on the target polypeptide and a linker. Further disclosed are methods for the detection of a posttranslationally modified target polypeptide, for making the disclosed bivalent binding agent, and for use of the disclosed bivalent binding agent in histological staining procedures.

Abstract: A bivalent binding agent, capable of binding a polypeptide dimer, consisting of two monovalent binders linked to each other via a linker, the first monovalent binder binds an epitope of a first target polypeptide comprised in said dimer and the second monovalent binder binds to an epitope of a second target polypeptide comprised in said dimer. Each monovalent binder has a Kdiss in the range of 5×10?3/sec to 10?4/sec, and the bivalent binding agent has a Kdiss of 3×10?5/sec or less. Methods of making and using such bivalent binding agent in histological staining procedures are also disclosed.
