Human Anti-MMAE Antibody (TZA056) inhibition ELISA against MMAE, MMAF, MMAD (Data for each cytotoxic payload were obtained from separate experiments and combined in one graph).
The monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) toxin is a very potent antimitotic agent used as a payload for developing antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) blocking cell division.
The anti-MMAE antibodies bind MMAE in both its free and conjugated form. They are also reactive to the closely related toxins MMAD and MMAF.
They are ideal for the development of pharmacokinetic (PK) bridging ELISAs to measure antibody drugs conjugated to those toxins.
