Nanobodies: natural single-domain antibodies
Abstract
Sera of camelids contain both conventional heterotetrameric antibodies and unique functional heavy (H)-chain antibodies (HCAbs). The H chain of these homodimeric antibodies consists of one antigen-binding domain, the VHH, and two constant domains. HCAbs fail to incorporate light (L) chains owing to the deletion of the first constant domain and a reshaped surface at the VHH side, which normally associates with L chains in conventional antibodies. The genetic elements composing HCAbs have been identified, but the in vivo generation of these antibodies from their dedicated genes into antigen-specific and affinity-matured bona fide antibodies remains largely underinvestigated. However, the facile identification of antigen-specific VHHs and their beneficial biochemical and economic properties (size, affinity, specificity, stability, production cost) supported by multiple crystal structures have encouraged antibody engineering of these single-domain antibodies for use as a research tool and in biotechnology and medicine.

VHH and V-NAR domains contain more hydrophilic residues on the surface that interfaces with VL domains, and some hydrophobic residues analogous to those at the VH/VL interface are used for interacting with hydrophobic residues in the CDR3 loop.
“Compared to the VH domains, the VHH and V-NAR domains contain more hydrophilic residues on the surface that interfaces with the VL domains, and some hydrophobic residues, that are fixed in the sequences, are analogous to those at the VH/VL interface and are used for interacting with hydrophobic residues in the CDR3 loop [11,12].”

Nanobody paratopes contain on average nearly three additional residues, and the paratope is drawn from a wider set of aligned sequence positions than classical antibody VH domain paratopes, comparable to the set used by the entire VH-VL paratope.
“Perhaps more significant in terms of challenges to computational modelling tools is that nanobody paratopes contain on average nearly three additional residues, and moreover the paratope is drawn from a wider set of aligned sequence positions than classical antibody VH domain paratopes, comparable to the set used by the entire VH-VL paratope [230, 232].”

Nanobodies are naturally occurring H chain only antibodies in camelids and sharks.
“One of the most promising is the H chain only antibody, or nanobody that are naturally occurring in camelids (llamas, alpacas and camels) [27] and sharks [228, 229] (reviewed by Muyldermans [230] and Bannas et al. [27]).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
