Nanobodies vs Antibodies

Nanobodies vs Antibodies in the Fight Against Covid

Nanobodies are engineered small proteins that recognize and specifically bind to an antigen to initiate an appropriate signal- like antibodies. However, nanobodies bind to antigens with greater specificity and display other advantages over conventional antibodies. Extracted from camelids, these antibodies were found to comprise only of heavy chains, while demonstrating the same functions as conventional
