A naturally occurring NAR variable domain binds the Kgp protease from <i>Porphyromonas gingivalis</i>
12 Mar 2002
Abstract excerpt
The new antigen receptor (NAR) from sharks consists of a single immunoglobulin variable domain attached to five constant domains, and is hypothesised to function as an antibody. Two closely related NARs with affinity for the Kgp (lysine-specific) gingipain protease from Porphyromonas gingivalis were selected by panning an NAR variable domain library. When produced in Escherichia coli, these recombinant NARs were...
