    Abstract: The present invention provides a cell culture medium with which serum-free long-term culture of an epithelial stem cell, an epithelial cancer cell, or a tissue containing at least one thereof can be achieved. The cell culture medium of the present invention includes: a Wnt agonist composed of a complex of Wnt protein and afamin, which is a substance capable of stabilizing the Wnt protein, and R-spondin; and at least one selected from the group consisting of a mitogenic growth factor, a bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) inhibitor, a transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) inhibitor, and a p38 inhibitor.

    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a fragment antibody which can be conveniently produced as one having antigen-binding activity, and which has a greater ability to crystallize itself alone or as a complex with an antigen molecule than that of Fv-clasp (v1) even in a case where the fragment antibody is obtained in an E. coli expression system. The present invention relates to a fragment antibody including a complex of a peptide (VH(112C)-SARAH) in which an N-terminus of a SARAH domain is linked to a C-terminus of a heavy chain domain (VH region) of an antibody, and an amino acid residue of antibody residue 112 according to Chothia numbering scheme in the VH region is mutated to cysteine; and a peptide (VL-SARAH(37C)) in which an N-terminus of a SARAH domain is linked to a C-terminus of a light chain domain (VL region) of an antibody, and an amino acid residue at position 13 from the C-terminus in the SARAH domain is mutated to cysteine.
