Category:GO:0071762 ! heavy chain immunoglobulin complex
name: heavy chain immunoglobulin complex
namespace: cellular_component
def: "A protein complex composed of two identical immunoglobulin heavy chains of the IgNAR isotype held together by disulfide bonds and lacking immunoglobulin light chains." [GOC:add, ISBN:0781765196, PMID:12543123, PMID:16051357]
comment: Note that a heavy chain immunoglobulin complex has the function of antigen binding if a suitable antigen is available. Note that IgNAR is found in serum of cartilaginous fish as a heavy chain dimer without immunoglobulin light chains. Note that HCab is found in camels as a heavy chain dimer without immunoglobulin light chains.
