  • Patent number: 11427828
    Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing FcRn having improved stability with respect to heat and acids, a method for producing said FcRn, an antibody adsorbent in which said FcRn is used, and an antibody isolation method in which said adsorbent is used. The above problem is solved by substituting an amino acid residue at a specific position in an extracellular region of a human FcRn ? chain and/or a ?2 microglobulin region of a human FcRn ? chain by another specific amino acid.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10815289
    Abstract: Provided are: an Fc-binding protein having improved stability, particularly to heat and acid; a method for producing the protein; an antibody adsorbent using the protein; and a method for separating the antibodies using the adsorbent. Specifically provided are: an Fc-binding protein having improved stability to heat and acid, achieved by substituting an amino-acid residue in a specific position in the extracellular region of human FcyRIIIa with another specific amino acid; a method for producing the protein; an antibody adsorbent using the protein; and a method for separating the antibodies using the adsorbent.
