Methods for display of recombinant proteins or protein libraries on the surface of lower eukaryotes such as yeast and filamentous fungi are described. The methods are useful for screening libraries of recombinant proteins in lower eukaryotes to identify particular proteins with desired properties from the array of proteins in the libraries. The methods are particularly useful for constructing and screening antibody libraries in lower eukaryotes.

Provided herein are methods and compositions relating to glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) libraries having nucleic acids encoding for a scaffold comprising a GLP1R binding domain. Libraries described herein include variegated libraries comprising nucleic acids each encoding for a predetermined variant of at least one predetermined reference nucleic acid sequence. Further described herein are protein libraries generated when the nucleic acid libraries are translated. Further described herein are cell libraries expressing variegated nucleic acid libraries described herein.

The present invention pertains to a silkworm-type biotinylated CTLD14 or sRAGE and a method for manufacturing the same. One embodiment of the present invention provides a method for manufacturing biotinylated proteins, wherein the method includes A) a step for inserting a nucleic acid molecule for coding biotin ligase and protein in a coexpressable manner into a silkworm or a living organism that imparts sugar chains that are the same as the sugar chains of the silkworm, B) a step for causing the biotin ligase and protein to be expressed by disposing the silkworm or the living organism that imparts sugar chains that are the same as the sugar chains of the silkworm to conditions with which the nucleic acid molecule will carry out expression, and C) a step for administering biotin to the living organism and obtaining the biotinylated protein.

Disclosed herein are methods for high-throughput screening of a functional antibody fragment for an immunoconjugate that targets a protein antigen. The method combines a phage-displayed synthetic antibody library and high-throughput cytotoxicity screening of non-covalently assembled immunotoxins or cytotoxic drug to identify highly functional synthetic antibody fragments for delivering toxin payloads.

The present invention relates to the identification of a fully humanized single domain antibody scaffold as well as its use in generating synthetic single domain antibodies. The invention further relates to antigen-binding proteins comprising said single domain antibody scaffold and their use in therapy.

The invention provides novel bispecific monoclonal antibodies carrying a different specificity for each binding site of the immunoglobulin molecule and methods for producing novel bispecific monoclonal antibodies carrying a different specificity for each binding site of the immunoglobulin molecule. The antibodies are composed of a single heavy chain and two different light chains, one containing a Kappa constant domain and the other of a Lambda constant domain. The invention provides methods for the isolation of antibodies of different specificities but sharing a common heavy chain. The invention also provides methods for the controlled co-expression of two light chains and a single heavy chain leading to the assembly of monospecific and bispecific antibodies. The invention provides a mean of producing a fully human bispecific and bivalent antibody that is unaltered in sequence and does not involve the use of linkers or other non-human sequences, as well as antibody mixtures of two monospecific antibodies and one bispecific antibody. The invention also provides the means of efficiently purifying the bispecific antibody.

The present inventors discovered that problems of existing antibody pharmaceuticals can be solved by producing antigen-binding molecules that contain an antigen-binding domain whose antigen-binding activity varies depending on the concentration of a target tissue-specific compound. Use of antigen-binding molecules of the present invention enables various diseases that originate from a target tissue to be treated in a manner specific to the target tissue.

The present disclosure relates to protein molecules that specifically bind to CD123, which may have at least one humanized or human CD123-binding domain. Such molecules are useful for the treatment of cancer. The protein molecule binding to CD123 may have a second binding domain that binds to another target. In one embodiment, multi-specific polypeptide molecules bind both CD123-expressing cells and the T-cell receptor complex on T-cells to induce target-dependent T-cell cytotoxicity, activation, and proliferation. The disclosure also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising the CD123-binding polypeptide molecules, nucleic acid molecules encoding these polypeptides and methods of making these molecules.

The present invention relates generally to the field of making novel antigen binding domains against infectious diseases. The present invention also relates to novel CARs that utilize the novel antigen binding domains as an extracellular element. The present invention also relates to use of the novel antigen binding domains as therapeutic agents.
