Table 4.

IMGT engineered variant nomenclature. Examples of IGHG1 variants involved in antibody-dependent cellular (ADCC), antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP), complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), half-life increase, half-IG exchange, B cell inhibition, and knobs-into-holes are shown. Amino acid positions, correspondence with the EU numbering and bibliographical references are quoted at http://www.imgt.org/IMGTeducation/Tutorials/IGandBcells/_UK/IGproperties/Tableau3.html.
