Preferred term

Single-Chain Antibodies  

Type

  • mesh:Descriptor

Definition

  • A form of antibodies consisting only of the variable regions of the heavy and light chains (FV FRAGMENTS), connected by a small linker peptide. They are less immunogenic than complete immunoglobulin and thus have potential therapeutic use.
