EGFR-binding peptide

The EGFR-binding peptide is a 124 amino acid long nanobody with a molecular weight of 13.4 kDa that specifically binds to EGFR.


Profile

  • Name: EGFR-binding peptide
  • Base Pairs: 372 bp
  • Amino acid: 124 a.a
  • Origin: Llama glama
  • Properties: EGFR specific nanobody that sterically inhibit the ligands for EGFR activation


Usage and Biology

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) has been always found to be over-expressed in various type of drug-resistant human cancers, including pancreatic cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. It is a target of antibody-based chemotherapeutics for targeted immunotherapy. This EGFR binding peptide is a 124 amino acid long nanobody with an inhibitory effect on ligand-induced EGFR activation. It inhibits the EGFR activation by a steric blockade on the binding of ligands to EGFR. The EGFR binding peptide consists of the variable domains of heavy chain (VHH) only, which is the smallest antigen-binding modules occurs in the nature. The structure of the nanobody has been resolved using X-ray crystallography [Schmitz et al., 2013].

Design Note

The DNA sequence was obtained from Schmitz et al., and performed codon optimization for prokaryotic expression system (E.Coli -BL21DE3).

The VHH domain of the nanobody was isolated from a phage library generated from Llama glama lymphocytes that had been immunized with A431 epidermoid carcinoma cells [Roovers et al., 2007]
