Synopsis
Recombinant DNA techniques have revolutionized the isolation and production of antibodies. This volume describes methods and technologies which will allow the researcher to isolate a new antibody, analyse its properties, format the correct antibody or fragment, and produce sufficient quantities for experimental use. Topics in this volumes include: generation and analysis of antibodies; antibody repertoires; antibody screening and selection; measuring antibody affinities; sequence analysis; antibody engineering and production; conversion of rodent antibodies to human antibodies by CDR grafting or guided selection; choosing and optimizing effector functions; preparation and use of antibody-based molecules in eukaryotic and prokaryotic systems; scaling up manufacture; and generation of high-affinity high-specificity human antibodies in appropriate formats. Antibody Engineering is a unique manual of recombinant DNA methods for all those working with antibodies in research, diagnosis, and therapeutics. Each chapter is written by a leading researcher in the field and provides essential background information, fully tested protocols, sample data from using these methods, trouble-shooting comments, and key hints and tips for success. This book is intended for post-graduates, post-doctoral researchers, and other academic staff involved in both clinical and molecular biological applications of antibodies.

Review
This book is very useful for practising antibody engineers, providing extra information that enables them to adopt new techniques or expand into new areas. ... this is a useful and interesting resource for practising antibody engineers and I will make sure my students have access to it. (SGM Quarterly, August 1997)
