Multimeric Therapeutic Nanobodies

Background Assembling nanobodies (Nb) into polyvalent multimers is a powerful strategy for improving the effectiveness of Nb-based therapeutics and biotechnological tools. However, generally effective approaches to Nb assembly are currently restricted to the N- or C-termini, greatly limiting the diversity of Nb multimers that can be produced. Here,...
