    Abstract: The present invention relates to recombinant polynucleotides, expression vectors and methods for the production of multimeric proteins. The vectors and methods are useful for the production of multimeric protein and are unique in that they utilize a minimal number of signal sequences. More specifically, the present invention provides recombinant polynucleotide molecules and expression vectors comprising a promoter region operably linked to a transcription unit. The transcription unit is characterized by at least two DNA sequences encoding distinct polypeptides wherein at least one but not all DNA sequences further encodes a signal sequence operably linked to the DNA sequence encoding a polypeptide. The invention further provides methods of producing a multimeric protein using the expression vectors of the present invention.

    Abstract: The invention provides method for therapeutic protein drug development that incorporates therapeutic and/or formulation and/or manufacturing considerations in the early screening process. The approach involves screening a plurality of different variants of a domain that have been determined to have the desired therapeutic property to identify one or more variants that have desired therapeutic and/or formulation characteristics, and constructing the full multidomain proteins using the identified domain variants. The present invention also provides a method for determining the shelf life of multidomain proteins in formulations. The method comprises determining a thermal denaturation and/or renaturation curve of a domain of the protein whose unfolding leads to aggregation of the protein in a solution. The method evaluates the shelf life of the multidomain protein based on the denaturation/renaturation curve. The invention also provides methods for engineering multidomain proteins to improve their therapeutic and/or formulation characteristics.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel molecules (Fc variants) comprising at least one antigen binding region and an Fc region that further comprises a modified hinge which alters the binding of Fc to one or more Fc ligand (e.g., FcγRs) and/or modulates effector function. More specifically, this invention provides Fc variants that have modified binding affinity to one or more FcγR and/or CIq. Additionally, the Fc variants have altered antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and/or complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) activity. The invention further provides methods and protocols for the application of said Fc variants particularly for therapeutic purposes.

    Abstract: The present invention provides methods of re-engineering or re-shaping an antibody from a first species, wherein the re-engineered or re-shaped antibody does not elicit undesired immune response in a second species, and the re-engineered or re-shaped antibody retains substantially the same antigen binding-ability of the antibody from the first species. In accordance with the present invention, a combinatorial library comprising the CDRs of the antibody from the first species fused in frame with framework regions derived from a second species can be constructed and screened for the desired modified antibody. In particular, the present invention provides methods utilizing low homology acceptor antibody frameworks for efficiently humanizing an antibody or a fragment thereof. The present invention also provides antibodies produced by the methods of the invention.
