Cytoplasmic and periplasmic expression of recombinant shark VNAR antibody in Escherichia coli
Shark variable new antigen receptors (VNARs) are known to possess excellent heat-stability, and the long complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3) has permitted it to penetrate into the cleft region of antigens.

Single domain shark VNAR antibodies neutralize SARS-CoV-2 infection in vitro. [PDF]
Abstract Single domain shark VNAR antibodies can offer a viable alternative to conventional Ig-based monoclonal antibodies in treating COVID-19 disease during the current pandemic. Here we report the identification of neutralizing single domain VNAR antibodies selected against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein derived from

Construction of Semisynthetic Shark vNAR Yeast Surface Display Antibody Libraries
2023The adaptive immune system of sharks comprises a unique heavy chain-only antibody isotype, termed immunoglobulin new antigen receptor (IgNAR), in which antigen binding is mediated by a single variable domain, referred to as vNAR. In recent years, efforts were made to harness these domains for biomedical and biotechnological applications particularly ...

Overview and Discovery of IgNARs and Generation of VNARs
2012Immunoglobulin new antigen receptors (IgNARs) from sharks are a distinct class of immune receptors, consisting of homodimers with no associated light chains. Antigen binding is encapsulated within single VNAR immunoglobulin domains of 13-14 kDa in size.

VNAR single-domain antibodies specific for BAFF inhibit B cell development by molecular mimicry
B cell-activating factor (BAFF) plays a dominant role in the B cell homeostasis. However, excessive BAFF promotes the development of autoreactive B-cells and several antibodies have been developed to block its activity.
