In particular, erenumab-aooe is a human immunoglobulin G2 monoclonal antibody that has high affinity binding to the CGRP receptor . The antibody is produced utlilizing recombinant DNA technology in Chinese hamster ovary cells . It is composed of 2 heavy chains, each containing 456 amino acids, and 2 light chains of the lambda subclass, each containing 216 amino acids, with an approximate molecular weight of 150 kDa .
