Article Synopsis
- Haemoglobin (Hb) is crucial for transporting oxygen in vertebrates, and its low levels can indicate health issues like anaemia or colon cancer.
- A new sandwich-ELISA test using llama-derived nanobodies (NbE11 and NbB9) has been developed to detect human Hb without reacting to other vertebrates' Hb.
- Researchers have determined the crystal structure of NbE11 paired with human Hb, revealing high affinity binding mainly to the β-Hb subunit, which helps explain the test's specificity for human Hb.
