The Fc portion of immunoglobulin G (IgG) recruits complements and its cognate receptors, thereby promoting defensive mechanisms in the humoral immune system. These effector functions critically depend on N-glycosylation at the Fc region, which is therefore regarded as a crucial factor in the design and production of therapeutic antibodies. NMR spectroscopy plays a unique role in the characterization of conformational dynamics and intermolecular interactions of IgG-Fc in solutions. Here, we report NMR assignments of the glycosylated Fc fragment (Mr 53 kDa), cleaved from a chimeric antibody with human IgG1 constant regions, which was produced in Chinese hamster ovary cells with uniform 13C- and 15N-labeling.
