FabRICATOR (IdeS) is a unique enzyme that digests IgG at a specific site below the hinge region, generating a homogenous pool of F(ab')2 and Fc/2 fragments. No other substrate besides IgG is known.The IgG is digested within 30 minutes, and there is no risk of overdigestion if the incubation time is prolonged. Since FabRICATOR digests IgG under physiological reaction conditions, the immunoreactivity is preserved. FabRICATOR digests all subclasses of human, and some classes of monkey, rabbit and sheep IgG. It has limited activity on mouse IgG2a and IgG3 - for digestion of these antibody species, we recommend using FabRICATOR Z .
