Eur J Immunol 1996, 26:3029-3034. This report suggests that Fab expressed in E. coli is not identical, in terms of binding and virus neutralization, to antibody expressed in eukaryotic cells. Antibody derived from expression in a eukaryotic host may be superior in terms of the fraction of properly folded protein that is produced as compared with that expressed in prokaryotes. This observation may be antibody dependent.

J Immunol 1996, 157:772-780. Often selection from libraries can lead to the isolation of antibodies directed against a dominant epitope. By blocking a dominant epitope with a previously isolated antibody and repanning, antibodies against rare epitopes may be recovered. This study confirms the efficacy of the epitope masking procedure described earlier in studies of anti-HIV-1 antibody selection.

High-affinity anticarbohydrate antibodies have been thought to be rare, if not impossible, to produce. This report demonstrates that selection allows for the rapid isolation of this interesting class of antibodies.

Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 1996, 93:14815-14820. A mouse scFv that binds to a mutant human epidermal growth factor receptor was selected by panning an scFv library derived from mice immunized with a synthetic peptide. An immunotoxin produced by fusing the selected scFv to Pseudomonas exotoxin A revealed good affinity, cytotoxicity, and stability.

Nat Biotechnol 1996, 14:1149-1154. Study of a model system for the selection of dimeric scFvs that possess binding sites with two unique specificities.

Expression of antibodies in the scFv format is often an unsuccessful undertaking. This report demonstrates that selection of the linker sequence connecting the variable region fragments affects both affinity for antigen and the level of scFv expression.

Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 1996, 93:7279-7282. Construction of combinatorial libraries from prion knockout mice and immunization with prion protein enables the first selection of high-affinity antibodies to this important protein. This strategy may be an important one for the generation of antibodies to highly conserved proteins.

Nat Biotechnol 1996, 14:309-314. Antibodies of good affinity may be directly selected from large repertoires of V genes. This report involves the selection of scFv fragments which often aggregate, leading to an overestimate of their monovalent binding affinity. A general rule in combinatorial antibody selection is if your application demands a scFv, select a scFv. If your application requires a Fab or a whole antibody, select from a Fab library. Antibodies selected as scFv do not generally bind their antigen well when they are converted for expression in the Fab or whole antibody format.

J Virol 1996, 70:9046-9050. Based on the HIV-1 -neutralizing ability of human Fab that were selected by panning a Fab library derived from a HIV-1 positive individual on different preparations of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein, the authors suggest that the ability of antigen preparations to select neutralizing antibodies from combinatorial antibody libraries could be used as a measure of the quality of the antigen as a vaccine.

Peptides that home to target organs were selected by in vivo panning of phage displayed peptide libraries, a technique that should also be feasible with phage displayed antibody libraries. Selective in vivo targeting by peptides or antibodies promises applications in gene and cancer therapy.

See also [6] for a comprehensive investigation of the CDR walking mutagenesis strategy as it relates to additivity within antibody combining sites. Currently, this strategy has led to the greatest success in improving the affinity of already high affinity antibodies.
