  • Publication number: 20230010106
    Abstract: The present invention provides cells, transgenic animals, including transgenic mammals and particularly rodents comprising engineered immunoglobulin (Ig) alleles. Such engineered alleles, wherein an Ig light chain CL exon [C? or C? (C?1, C?2 or C?3)] is incorporated into the Ig heavy chain locus, are capable of producing heavy chain-only antibodies as a single chain VH antibody (scVHAb) or heavy chain antibody (HCAb) comprising two extended scVHAbs. The scVHAb comprises an antigen-binding part consisting of a VH domain and the immunoglobulin constant domains CL, which is either C? or C?, and CH1, in the order from N-terminus to C-terminus: VH-L1-CL-L2-CH1, wherein L1 and L2 are each, independently, peptidic linkers; and wherein CL is paired with CH1 through beta-sheet contact thereby obtaining a CL/CH1 dimer.
