Abstract:Classical antibody functions include opsonization, complement activation and enhancement of cellular antimicrobial function. Antibodies can also have catalytic activity, although the contribution of catalysis to their biological functions has been more difficult to establish. In this study, we mapped the epitopes of several monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against the capsule of <i>Cryptococcus neoformans</i> using a synthetic glycan array. From this, we designed and synthesized two glycan based Förs… Show more
