a naive camel nanobody library is constructed and phage display is used to select one nanobody toward RgpB with picomolar affinity. The nanobody is highly specific for RgpB given that it does not bind to the homologous gingipain HRgpA, indicating the presence of a binding epitope within the immunoglobulin-like domain of RgpB. RgpB can be used as a specific biomarker for Porphyromonas gingivalis infection |
