A structural peculiarity of Antarctic fish IgM drives the generation of an engineered mAb by CRISPR/Cas9
IgM is the major circulating Ig isotype in teleost fish, showing in Antarctic fish unique features such as an extraordinary long hinge region, which plays a crucial role in antibody structure and function. In this work, we describe the replacement of the hinge region of a murine monoclonal antibody...
