== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/KVD33_HUMAN KVD33_HUMAN] V region of the variable domain of immunoglobulin light chains that participates in the antigen recognition (PubMed:24600447). Immunoglobulins, also known as antibodies, are membrane-bound or secreted glycoproteins produced by B lymphocytes. In the recognition phase of humoral immunity, the membrane-bound immunoglobulins serve as receptors which, upon binding of a specific antigen, trigger the clonal expansion and differentiation of B lymphocytes into immunoglobulins-secreting plasma cells. Secreted immunoglobulins mediate the effector phase of humoral immunity, which results in the elimination of bound antigens (PubMed:20176268, PubMed:22158414). The antigen binding site is formed by the variable domain of one heavy chain, together with that of its associated light chain. Thus, each immunoglobulin has two antigen binding sites with remarkable affinity for a particular antigen. The variable domains are assembled by a process called V-(D)-J rearrangement and can then be subjected to somatic hypermutations which, after exposure to antigen and selection, allow affinity maturation for a particular antigen (PubMed:20176268, PubMed:17576170).<ref>PMID:17576170</ref> <ref>PMID:20176268</ref> <ref>PMID:22158414</ref> <ref>PMID:24600447</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
BACKGROUND: Immunoglobulin domains owe a crucial fraction of their conformational stability to an invariant central disulfide bridge, the closure of which requires oxidation. Under the reducing conditions prevailing in cell cytoplasm, accumulation of soluble immunoglobulin is prohibited by its inability to acquire and maintain the native conformation. Previously, we have shown that disulfide-free immunoglobulins can be produced in Escherichia coli and purified from cytoplasmic extracts. RESULTS: Immunoglobulin REIv is the variable domain of a human kappa light chain. The disulfide-free variant REIv-C23V/Y32H was crystallized and its structure analyzed by X-ray crystallography (2.8 A resolution). The conformation of the variant is nearly identical to that of the wild-type protein and the conformationally stabilized variant REIv-T39K. This constitutes the first crystal structure of an immunoglobulin fragment without a disulfide bridge. The lack of the disulfide bridge produces no obvious local change in structure (compared with the wild type), whereas the Y32H mutation allows the formation of an additional hydrogen bond. There is a further change in the structure that is seen in the dimer in which Tyr49 has flipped out of the dimer interface in the mutant. CONCLUSIONS: Immunoglobulin derivatives without a central disulfide bridge but with stringently conserved wild-type conformation can be constructed in a practical two-step approach. First, the protein is endowed with additional folding stability by the introduction of one or more stabilizing amino acid exchanges; second, the disulfide bridge is destroyed by substitution of one of the two invariant cysteines. Such derivatives can be accumulated in soluble form in the cytoplasmic compartment of the E. coli cell. Higher protein yields and evolutionary refinement of catalytic antibodies by genetic complementation are among the possible advantages.
