kappa light chain

Usage and Biology

Part BBa_K3117039 is the constant part of the light chain within an antibody. Together with the single chain variable fragment, the kappa-light chain forms the variable light chain of an antibody. Additionally, the kappa-light chain binds to the constant region 1 (BBa_K3117040) of an antibody via disulfid bonds.
