The glomerular filtration barrier prevents large serum proteins from being lost into the urine. It is not known, however, why the filter does not routinely clog with large proteins that enter the glomerular basement membrane (GBM). Here we provide evidence that an active transport mechanism exists t...

Albumin has a long plasma half-life due to engagement of the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn), which prevents intracellular degradation. However, its C-terminal end can be cleaved by carboxypeptidase A, and removal of the last leucine residue (L585) weakens receptor binding, reducing its half-life from 2...

Immunoglobulin Gs (IgGs) have become highly successful drug scaffolds by combining very specific target binding with the ability to induce cellular cytotoxicity. Of further advantage, IgGs possess unusually long half-lives in the blood (2-3 week). IgGs achieve such extraordinary half-lives through a...
