Catalytic Antibodies

  • Chapter
Biomimetic Polymers

Abstract

Attention has focused on the mammalian immune system as a source of highly specific, tailored catalysts. The construction of enzyme-like immunoglobulins involves synthesizing compounds that mimic the transition state structure of a particular reaction, eliciting an immune response against such substances, and screening the resulting antibodies for the desired activity and specificity. The recent and rapid progress that has been made in generating catalytic antibodies for diverse chemical transformations, from hydrolytic to concerted pericyclic processes, is reviewed.
