  • Publication number: 20240108743
    Abstract: A linker peptide for constructing a fusion protein. The linker peptide comprises a flexible peptide and a rigid peptide. The flexible peptide consists of one or more flexible units. The rigid peptide consists of one or more rigid units. The flexible unit comprises two or more amino acid residues selected from Gly, Ser, Ala, and Thr. The rigid unit comprises a human chorionic gonadotropin ?-subunit carboxy-terminal peptide (CTP) bearing a plurality of glycosylation sites. The linker peptide can more effectively eliminate mutual steric hindrance of two fusion molecules, decreasing a reduction/loss of polymerization or activity resulting from improper folding of an active protein or a conformational change. On the other hand, the negatively charged, highly sialylated CTP can resist renal clearance, further prolonging a half-life of a fused molecule and enhancing bioavailability of a fused protein.

  • Publication number: 20230416385
    Abstract: A bispecific antibody, which specifically binds the surface antigen CD3 of immune cells and the BCMA antigen on the surface of tumor cells and which may bind to human CD3 with high affinity, induce T cell proliferation, and mediate tumor cell killing effects. The bispecific antibody may be used to mediate the T cell-specific killing of target cells in in vitro tests. The method for constructing a bispecific antibody is simple, and avoids the possibility of mismatching between two sets of light chains and heavy chains of a heterologous bispecific antibody, thus the difficulty of antibody purification is reduced, the affinity of the obtained antibody is high, the side effects of induced cytokines are few, and safety is high.

  • Publication number: 20230073411
    Abstract: A tetravalent, homodimer-type bispecific antibody molecule that simultaneously targets immune effector cell antigen CD3 and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her2); the bispecific antibody molecule comprises, from in sequence from N-terminus to C-terminus, a first single-chain Fv capable of specifically binding to Her2, a second single-chain Fv capable of specifically binding to CD3, and an Fc fragment; the first and second single-chain Fv are connected by means of a connection peptide, and the second single-chain Fv is connected to the Fc directly fragment or is connected by means of a connection peptide; the Fc fragment does not have effector functions such as CDC, ADCC and ADCP. The bispecific antibody may significantly inhibit or kill tumor cells, and has controlled toxic side effects that may be caused by excessive activation of effector cells.
