Abstract
Aims: Proteins are targets for photodegradation due to absorption of incident light by endogenous chromophores, e.g aromatic side chains. In this work we study the role of Trp-disulfide triads in the light induced loss of immunoglobulin activity. Study Design: We investigated a single chain variable fragment (scFv) of the Trp -disulfide triad containing monoclonal antibody 82D6A3. The scFv binds to von Willebrand factor (VWF) and upon illumination with near UV -B-light the scFv partially loses its bi nding
