  25. [ASAP] Enhancement and Analysis of Human Antiaflatoxin B1 (AFB1) scFv Antibody–Ligand Interaction Using Chain Shuffling

    • Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
    • A human antiaflatoxin B1 (AFB1) scFv antibody (yAFB1-c3), selected from a naı̈ve human phage-displayed scFv library, was used as a template for improving and analysis of antibody–ligand interactions using the chain-shuffling technique. The variable-heavy and variable-light (VH/VL)-shuffled library was constructed from the VH of 25 preselected clones recombined with the VL of yAFB1-c3 and vice versa.
