Affibody molecules in biotechnological and medical applications

S Ståhl, T Gräslund, AE Karlström, FY Frejd… - Trends in …, 2017 - cell.com
Affibody molecules are small (6.5-kDa) affinity proteins based on a three-helix bundle
domain framework. Since their introduction 20 years ago as an alternative to antibodies for …

Improving the tolerance of a protein a analogue to repeated alkaline exposures using a bypass mutagenesis approach

M Linhult, S Gülich, T Gräslund, A Simon… - Proteins: structure …, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
