Gastrobodies are engineered antibody mimetics resilient to pepsin and hydrochloric acid

Wicke, Bedford & Howarth present a protein engineering strategy focusing on the survival of protein targeting reagents in the GI tract. For this, they engineer a Kunitz soybean trypsin inhibitor as the scaffold and showcase the binding of the engineered antibody mimetics to Clostridium difficile...
