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.

FKTN and FKRP can transfer ribitol phosphate to recombinant α-dystroglycan.(a) Schematic representation of α-dystroglycan fragments used in this study. (b) Transfer of [3H]-ribitol from CDP-[1-3H]-ribitol to α-dystroglycan (~1 μg) by recombinant FKTN and FKRP (~0.1 and ~0.4 μg, respectively). After incubation for 16 h at 30 °C, proteins were recovered using streptavidin beads and incorporated radioactivity was determined with a scintillation counter. Values are means±s.d. of three biological replicates from one representative experiments out of three. Asterisks indicate p<0.05 in Student's t-test. (c) Incorporation of [32P] from [32P]-CDP-ribitol to different fragments of α-dystroglycan by FKTN and FKRP. After 16 h of incubation at 30 °C, proteins were incubated with (+) or without (-) alkaline phosphatase (AP) and resolved by SDS–PAGE. 32P was detected with a storage phosphorimager. (d) Effect of deglycosylation of α-dystroglycan (aa 1–485) with a 'deglycosylation mix' on the incorporation of radioactivity from [32P]-CDP-ribitol catalysed by FKRP or FKTN. The deglycosylation treatment of α-dystroglycan performed either before (two left panels) or after (two right panels) ribitol-phosphorylation decreased the apparent molecular weight of α-dystroglycan, but did not reduce the incorporated radioactivity.

Biological function summary
Fukutin plays a fundamental role in maintaining the structure and function of muscle cells by participating in the glycosylation of α-dystroglycan. This modification allows α-dystroglycan to bind to extracellular matrix proteins. Fukutin operates as part of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex which is essential for muscle integrity and stability. This complex anchors the cytoskeleton of a muscle cell to the surrounding extracellular matrix.
Pathways
This protein fukutin participates in the dystroglycan pathway affecting the integrity of muscle cells. It works closely with other proteins like LARGE1 which also modifies α-dystroglycan. Fukutin's activity ensures that α-dystroglycan has the necessary post-translational modifications to perform its function within the laminin-binding pathway linking the extracellular matrix to the cytoskeleton.
