Delicate balance among thermal stability, binding affinity, and conformational space explored by single-domain VHH antibodies

Abstract The high binding affinities and specificities of antibodies have led to their use as drugs and biosensors. Single-domain VHH antibodies exhibit high specificity and affinity but have higher stability and solubility than conventional antibodies as they are single-domain proteins. In this wor...
