Nanobodies that Neutralize HIV [PDF]
Nanobodies or VHH (variable domains of heavy-chain only antibodies) are derived from camelid species such as llamas and camels. Nanobodies isolated and selected through phage display can neutralize a broad range of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 ...

NANOBODIES: STRUCTURE, MANUFACTURING, APPLICATION (REVIEW)
Introduction. Single-domain antibodies (nanobodies) are composed of the heavy-chain variable domain only. Compared to conventional immunoglobulins G (IgG) nanobodies have such qualities as: high bioavailability, ability to bind epitopes that are ...
