Abstract: The present application provides genetically modified non-human animals and methods for producing heavy chain-only antibodies (HcAbs), wherein the genetically modified non-human animal comprises a germline genome comprising an engineered immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) allele at an endogenous IgH locus, wherein the engineered IgH allele lacks functional gene segments encoding CH1 domains of all endogenous IgG subclasses. In some embodiments, a genetically modified mouse is provided, comprising an engineered IgH allele that lacks a functional endogenous gene segment encoding C?3, C?1, C?2b and CH1 exon of C?2c. Further provided are HcAbs or derivatives thereof produced by the genetically modified non-human animals.
