Abstract：
:We have previously noted that a specific amino acid sequence could form the second framework region of human, mouse and rabbit immunoglobulin light chains, suggesting that this sequence has been preserved for 80 million years. Through divergent evolution, each species has acquired a different set of framework region sequences; however, these sets still share a few similar or identical amino acid sequences. In the present study, we have identified such sequences for all four framework regions between human and mouse immunoglobulin light and heavy chains. They may be useful in humanizing or reshaping mouse or rat antibodies for therapeutic applications in human patients.
