Specificity
This antibody recognizes the idiotype of trastuzumab, mimicking HER2 epitopes.
Alternative Names
human HER2 mimetic
UniProt
Immunogen
Trastuzumab F(ab')2 fragments.
Application Notes
This antibody binds to the idiotype of trastuzumab, effectively mimicking HER2 epitopes. In a murine in vivo model, it elicited anti-HER2 antibodies, offering protection against HER2- positive SK-OV-3 tumor cells (Ladjemi et al., 2011; PMID: 21294885). Additionally, specialized trastuzumab- fused masked forms of this antibody—T-scFv40 + TEV, T-scFv40 + Factor Xa, and T-scFv40 + TEV + Factor Xa—were used to evaluate binding affinity to HER2 via flow cytometry and confocal microscopy (Orozco et al., 2022; PMID: 35799328).
