Nucleic acid molecules and single-domain antibody applications are provided. The nucleic acid molecules include a transgenic host animal immunoglobulin genes or parts of immunoglobulin genes. Main characters are: it comprises the transgenic host animal IgH 5′-enhancer, IgM switch region (Sμ), and IgM sequences, specifically, all the IgM sequences are originated from the transgenic host animal, and the CH1 sequences of the IgM is deleted (IgM-dCH1). The regulatory control sequences of IgG are also derived from the transgenic host animal including Sγ, TM1, TM2, PolyA sequences, etc., and IgG Cγ sequences (Hinge, CH2 and CH3) are human sequence (Igγ-dCH1). The present invention ensures normal B-cell development in transgenic animal, and the transgenic animal expresses human single-domain antibodies, reducing the subsequent antibody humanization process and improving the druggability of the antibodies. |
