Abstract:An imbalance in matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) regulation can lead to numerous diseases, including neurological disorders, cancer, and pre-term labor. Engineering single-chain antibody fragments (scFvs) Targeting MMP-9 to develop novel therapeutics for such diseases is desirable. We screened a synthetic scFv antibody library displayed on the yeast surface for binding improvement to MMP-9 using FACS (fluorescent-activated cell sorting). The scFv antibody clones isolated after FACS showed improvement in bind… Show more
