Dear Andrea,

This patent has nanobodies against different light chains, incl. for lambda 
isotype. I know some colleagues used the kappa one, but I recall (vaguely) from 
some discussion that the lambda ones were not very high affinity. But don’t 
take my word for it, third hand information.

Subject: [ccp4bb] Anti–human lambda light-chain binders for Fab stabilization


Hi all,



I’m looking for a small, high-affinity binder to the human lambda light-chain 
constant region—essentially a lambda-specific analog of the anti-Cκ VHHs that 
have been used to stabilize Fabs for cryo-EM.



We have a Fab with a lambda light chain and would like a similar binder to form 
a stable Fab–binder complex (for cryo-EM and potentially crystallization). 
Ideally this would bind outside the paratope and be relatively compact.



If anyone knows of existing anti-lambda binders, has used something like this 
successfully, or can suggest a commercial source, I’d really appreciate any 
advice.



Thank you,

Andrea Smith
