Against the backdrop of the rapid development of antibody and ADC drugs, the accurate detection of Human IgG mutants has become a key challenge in drug development. Based on advanced nanobody (VHH) technology, AlpVHHs has launched the innovative Anti-Human IgG (CH2 Fragment Specific) AlpSdAbs® VHH series, which can accurately identify various IgG engineered mutants, providing a reliable tool for antibody activity detection and quality control.
CH2 Domain: The Core Structure of Antibody Fc Function
The Role of the CH2 Domain in Antibody Immune Effects
The CH2 domain is the core functional unit of the Human IgG Fc region, directly mediating binding to the Fcγ receptor (FcγR) and complement protein C1q. It is an important structural basis for regulating various immune effects, including:
● ADCC (Antibody-dependent Cell-Mediated Cytotoxicity)
● CDC (Complement-Dependent Cytotoxicity)
Therefore, the CH2 domain plays a crucial role in antibody drug design and functional regulation.
Challenges to Detection from Antibody Engineering Mutations
In recent years, antibody engineering technology has become a core pathway for upgrading ADC drugs. Common mutations include:
● LALA mutation: Reduces FcγR binding ability, avoids immune cell-mediated non-specific killing, and improves tumor targeting specificity.
● YTE mutation: Improves FcRn binding ability and significantly prolongs antibody half-life.
● KIH (Knob-into-Hole) mutation: Used to construct bispecific antibodies and solve heavy chain mismatch problems.
However, these key mutations are concentrated in the CH2-CH3 region, which directly alters the recognition epitopes of traditional antibodies, leading to:
● Failure of conventional Anti-Human IgG secondary antibody recognition
● Unstable detection signals in ELISA/WB/Flow assays
● Difficulty in evaluating antibody activity
Innovative Solution: CH2 Fragment Specific Nanobody
To address industry challenges, Critical Point Biotech has developed the Anti-Human IgG (CH2 Fragment Specific) AlpSdAbs® VHH series of nanoantibodies. Based on a single-domain nanobody (VHH) platform, this product can simultaneously and accurately identify:
● Wild Type Human IgG
● LALA mutants
● LALA + YTE combined mutants
● KIH bispecific antibody structures
Providing a more stable and reliable detection tool for antibody drug development, ADC detection, and bispecific antibody analysis.

What are the advantages of H2: Anti-Human IgG (CH2 Fragment Specific) AlpSdAbs® VHH series nano-secondary antibody?
1. Precise Identification of the CH2 Fragment
Anti-Human IgG (CH2 Fragment Specific) nano-secondary antibody specifically binds to the CH2 domain of Human IgG and:
● Does not cross-react with other IgG domains
● Significantly improves detection specificity and accuracy
● More accurately reflects the structural characteristics of antibody drugs
Suitable for applications such as Human IgG detection, ADC detection, and antibody structure analysis.
2. Ultra-low background interference
Traditional secondary antibodies often suffer from non-specific binding to the Fc receptor due to their Fc structure. VHH nanobodies, however:
● Contain no Fc fragments
● Fundamentally eliminate Fc-mediated non-specific binding
● Significantly reduce background signal
Especially suitable for Flow Cytometry, Immunohistochemistry (IHC), and Immunofluorescence to obtain clearer detection results.
3. High Batch Stability
This product utilizes recombinant monoclonal nanobody expression technology, ensuring a fully controllable production process. Advantages include:
● Minimal batch variation
● Stable affinity (Kd)
● Highly consistent specificity
● Excellent reproducibility of experimental results
Fully meets the stringent requirements for antibody drug development and quality control.
4. Multiple Labeling Formats, Adaptable to Multiple Platforms
The product offers a variety of commonly used labeling formats, including: HRP, Biotin, PE, APC, iFluor488, iFluor594, and iFluor647; widely applicable to: ELISA, Western Blot (WB), Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry / Immunofluorescence (ICC / IF), and Immunoprecipitation (IP).
