PEACCEL co-authored a critical review on VHH structural modelling approaches with its academic partners

18 July 2022

VHH, i.e., VH domains of camelid single-chain antibodies, are very promising therapeutic agents due to their significant physicochemical advantages compared to classical mammalian antibodies. Unfortunately, most VHHs do not have 3D structures. This review presents the most extensive overview of structure prediction methods applied for the 3D modelling of a given VHH sequence (a total of 21). AlphaFold 2 and NanoNet appear to be the best tools to predict a structural model of VHH from its sequence.
