What are the Challenges in Developing Catalytic Antibodies?
Despite their potential, developing catalytic antibodies presents several challenges: - Efficiency: Catalytic antibodies generally have lower catalytic efficiencies compared to natural enzymes, limiting their practical applications. - Stability: They can be less stable than enzymes, particularly under non-physiological conditions. - Production: The process of generating and screening for effective catalytic antibodies can be time-consuming and costly.
