Production of IgG1-based bispecific antibody without extra cysteine residue via intein-mediated protein trans-splicing

Abstract A major class of bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) utilizes heterodimeric Fc to produce the native immunoglobulin G (IgG) structure. Because appropriate pairing of heavy and light chains is required, the design of BsAbs produced through recombination or reassembly of two separately-expressed an...
