Monoclonal antibodies are a milestone in the advancement of modern medicine. Computer-aided design methods have many advantages over traditional experimental methods, such as saving time and effort. CD ComputaBio's monoclonal antibody design service uses advanced computer-aided design technology to provide you with a one-stop solution to meet your R&D goals.
Monoclonal antibodies are antibodies produced by identical immune cells that are clones of a unique parent cell and are widely used in research, diagnosis, and therapy because they are highly specific for a particular antigen. Monoclonal antibodies can have monovalent affinity and bind only to the same epitope (the part of the antigen that the antibody recognizes). Computational antibody design is essential for drug discovery. Computational tools can be used to predict antigen-antibody interactions at the molecular level. This approach has accelerated the discovery of new therapeutic antibodies and improved the quality of diagnostic tests.

CD ComputaBio provides professional monoclonal antibody design services. During the monoclonal antibody design process, we provide services including monoclonal antibody structure design and monoclonal antibody functional structure design. These services constitute a comprehensive workflow to promote monoclonal antibody innovation and optimization. Let's explore each basic service in detail.
Structural Design of Monoclonal Antibodies
Advanced antibody modeling technology is used to design the structure of monoclonal antibodies. Our computational tools are able to predict the three-dimensional structure of antibodies based on the known target antigen structure. By analyzing the antigen binding site, the variable region of the antibody can be optimized to ensure high affinity of the antibody.
Functional Design of Monoclonal Antibodies
Computational approaches is used to engineer the functionality of monoclonal antibodies. Computational analysis allows us to modify the Fc region of an antibody to achieve the desired functional outcome. For example, we can engineer antibodies with reduced Fc-mediated effector function for applications that require minimal immune activation, such as certain diagnostic assays.
Target Definition: Identify target antigens related to the research objectives, investigate their biological functions, collect information from literature and databases and confirm with customers.
In Silico Design: Analyze antigen structure using our modeling software and design antibody variable regions through docking simulations.
Design Optimization: The computational results are used to optimize antibody design, with the main goal of enhancing affinity and specificity, and predicting and adjusting antibody function.
Result Analysis: A comprehensive analysis will be performed to analysis the results of the optimized antibodies, mainly evaluating the structural stability and functional prediction.
