The influence of antibody humanization on shark variable domain (VNAR) binding site ensembles
Sharks and other cartilaginous fish produce new antigen receptor (IgNAR) antibodies, as key part of their humoral immune response and are the phylogenetically oldest living organisms that possess an immunoglobulin (Ig)-based adaptive immune system. IgNAR antibodies are naturally occurring heavy-chai...
