Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods for selecting, obtaining or producing Fc variant polypeptides which show altered recognition for an Fc ligand (e.g., FcγR, CIq). Additionally, the Fc variant polypeptides may 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 variant polypeptides particularly for therapeutic purposes.
