Described herein are methods for the efficient production of a heteromultimeric protein, such as a bispecific antibody. Heteromultimeric proteins may be capable of specifically binding to more than one target molecule or different epitopes on a single target molecule. The methods modulate parameters to improve assembly of the heteromultimeric proteins at higher yield and efficiency than otherwise possible. Also described are compositions comprising a hinge-containing polypeptide, such as a half-antibody.

Assembly of bispecific antibodies

The present invention provides methods for producing disulfide oxidoreductase A (DsbA) and disulfide oxidoreductase C (DsbC) polypeptides at very high levels of purity. Also provided are ultrapure DsbA and DsbC and methods of using same, e.g., for use in immunoassays to show removal of DsbA and DsbC from biologics produced in bacteria.
