Optimizing antibody affinity and stability by the automated design of the variable light-heavy chain interfaces.

Antibodies developed for research and clinical applications may exhibit suboptimal stability, expressibility, or affinity. Existing optimization strategies focus on surface mutations, whereas natural affinity maturation also introduces mutations in the antibody core, simultaneously improving stabili...
