We have systematically measured KD (the equilibrium dissociation constant between the antibody and its antigen), of more than 840 recombinant antibodies to assess not only their individual KD values but also to see the average affinity of antibody. Based on the comparison with published literature values for mouse monoclonal antibodies, Recombinant antibodies appear to be on average 1-2 order of magnitude higher affinity.

Supplementary information

The 5T4 protein also known as trophoblast glycoprotein or B3F1 is a cell surface antigen with a mass of approximately 72 kDa. It is encoded by the TPBG gene and expresses mainly in embryonic tissues and various cancers with limited expression in normal adult tissues. The 5T4 protein is characterized by a densely glycosylated structure contributing to its role in cellular processes like adhesion and migration.
Biological function summary

5T4 is involved in processes associated with embryonic development and cellular mobility. It contributes to the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) which is a critical process in both normal development and cancer metastasis. Although 5T4 is not part of a known specific complex its glycoprotein nature allows interaction with the extracellular matrix and other cell surface proteins influencing cell behavior and morphology.

Pathways

5T4 plays a part in signaling pathways involved in cell migration and invasion such as the Wnt/Β-catenin pathway and TGF-Β signaling. In the context of the Wnt/Β-catenin pathway 5T4 interacts with proteins like Β-catenin influencing cell proliferation and survival. Through its involvement in TGF-Β signaling 5T4 can impact cell differentiation processes and regulatory mechanisms often linking to other proteins such as SMAD family members within these pathways.

5T4 is associated with cancer particularly in its role in promoting metastasis. Its expression is notably increased in several carcinomas including breast and colorectal cancers. The elevated levels of 5T4 in tumors correlate with poorer prognosis making it a potential target for cancer therapies. Additionally 5T4 has connections to proteins such as MMPs (matrix metalloproteinases) which facilitate tissue remodeling and metastatic spread highlighting its significance in cancer progression.
