The patent US12006530B2 outlines an in vitro method for cleaving human IgG1 using a purified polypeptide. The method involves contacting human IgG1 with a polypeptide that either has the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3, a variant with at least 95% identity to this sequence and exhibiting human IgG1 cysteine protease activity, or a fragment of either. The process includes incubating the polypeptide with a sample containing human IgG1 under conditions that facilitate specific cysteine protease activity. Additionally, the method allows for the identification and isolation of cleavage products, which can be analyzed through techniques such as gel electrophoresis or mass spectrometry.

Furthermore, the method can be utilized to generate Fc and Fab fragments from human IgG1 and to detect the presence of human IgG1 in samples. This detection process involves monitoring for specific cleavage fragments indicative of human IgG1 after contacting the sample with the purified polypeptide. Notably, the purified polypeptide can be a recombinant variant, enhancing its applicability in various research and clinical settings. The claims emphasize the specificity and efficiency of the method, which could have significant implications for therapeutic and diagnostic applications involving human IgG1.
