Backbone 1H, 13C, and 15N resonance assignments of the Fc fragment of human immunoglobulin G glycoprotein

The Fc portion of immunoglobulin G (IgG) recruits complements and its cognate receptors, thereby promoting defensive mechanisms in the humoral immune system. These effector functions critically depend on N-glycosylation at the Fc region, which is therefore regarded as a crucial factor in the design and production of therapeutic antibodies. NMR spectroscopy plays a unique role in the characterization of conformational dynamics and intermolecular...
