Interaction of clinical-stage antibodies with heme predicts their physiochemical and binding qualities

Lecerf et al. examine over 100 samples with variable region sequences matching clinical-stage immunoglobulin antibodies, to demonstrate that many interact with heme. They find that those that do interact with heme possess specific sequence traits that manifest qualities such as increased hydrophobic...
