Vector Labs Ab03275-10.3 Anti-EGFR [cet.Hum (Cetuximab - humanized; hC225)], Human IgG1, Fc Silent™, kappa (200 μg)
Quick Overview
The original antibody was generated by grafting CDR loops of cetuximab on framework regions derived from type 3 (VH3 and VL3 kappa) human germline sequences to obtain recombinant VH and VL domains linked together with a flexible linker [(Gly4Ser)3] to form a scFv.

| Chimeric Use Statement: | This full-length reformatted human antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Human scFv format for improved compatibility with existing reagents assays and techniques. |
| Specificity Statement: | This antibody recognizes human EGFR. The epidermal growth factor receptor is the cell-surface receptor for members of the epidermal growth factor family (EGF-family) of extracellular protein ligands. |
| Application Notes: | The binding characterization of this humanized scFv version of cetuximab to human EGFR was done using ELISA. This antibody can recognize human EGFR from lysates of A-431 and MCF-7 cells in western blot. The scFv version was able to recognize EGFR on over-expressing cancer cells (A-431) but failed to detect cancer cells with low levels of EGFR (MCF-7 cells) in a flow cytometric experiment. The binding affinity of this scFv version was reported to be 9 fold lower than that of the parental cetuximab, but still it was strong enough for the successful recognition of human EGFR expressing cells. This antibody can be used to block cancer cell surface receptors and inhibit their downstream signaling (PMID: 29185855). |
