Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for constructing recombinant antibody libraries based on three-dimensional structures of antibodies from various species including human. In one aspect, a library of antibodies with diverse sequences is efficiently constructed in silico to represent the structural repertoire of the vertebrate antibodies. Such a functionally representative library provides a structurally diverse and yet functionally more relevant source of antibody candidates which can then be screened for high affinity binding to a wide variety of target molecules, including but not limited to biomacromolecules such as protein, peptide, and nucleic acids, and small molecules.
