  3. Emil von Behring (1845-1917) Emil von Behring, 1901, antitoxins

  4. Contents I Definition of antibody II Structure of antibody III Function of antibody IV Biological characteristics of different antibodies

  5. Antibody (Ab) A globulin which is produced by plasma cell as a result of the introduction of an antigen and which has the ability to combine with the antigen that stimulated its production.

  6. Immunoglobulins (Ig) Globulins composed of H and L chains, or globulins function as antibody. Immunoglobulins Antibody-containing serum is place in an electrical field Antibodies migrated with the globular proteins.

  7. The relationship between Ab & Ig All antibodies are immunoglobulins, but it is not certain that all immunoglobulins have antibody function.

  8. Distribution of antibody Antibody molecules are found in serum (account for approximately 20% of the total plasma protein ), in extravascular fluids, in exocrine secretions, and on the surface of some lymphocytes.

  9. Section 1 Structure of Ig

  10. 1 Basic four chain structure * A four polypeptide chains: two identical light chains two identical heavy chains , held by disulfide bonds. ** Y-shape structure, symmetric. *** –NH2 terminal, -COOH terminal. **** variable & constant regions. ***** domains

  12. 2 Variable (V) and Constant (C) regions

  13. (1) V region ①N-terminal1/2L+1/4(1/5)H; VL, VH

  15. (3) hypervarible region (HVR) (complimentarity determining region,CDR) : formation of the Ag binding site Framework region（ FR ) : maintaining the 3- dimensional configuration

  16. CDR (complimentarity determining region,)

  17. antibody antigen-antibody complex: antigen purple : HV CDR ( in both the ribbon and ball and stick views) green : antigen HV sequences contact the antigen.

  26. Section 2 Biological functions of antibodies

  27. 1 Antibody function in the absence of other factors • V region: Ag binding • Neutralizing toxin & virus • Agglutination microbes, • Prevention adhesion

  28. Neutralization By Antitoxin Antibodies

  29. Neutralization By Antiviral Antibodies

  30. Bacterial ‘Neutralization’ By Ab

  31. 2 Role of antibodies in complement activation C region: Fixation of complement

  32. 3 Role of antibodies binding to effector cells C region: Binding cells Opsonization Mediating ADCC

  33. (1) Opsonization: The process of attaching opsonins , such as IgG or complement fragments, to microbial surfaces to target the microbes for phagocytosis.

  34. Recognition of microbes by neutrophils and macrophages complement antibody Surface receptor on macrophage CD11b/CD18 CD16 （FcR III） IL-2 Lactoferrin CD25 CD71 B7-2 CD28 CD64 （Fc  R I） CD35 （CR1） CD32 （Fc  R II） antibody complement antibody

  35. Adherence of bacteria via receptors

  36. Opsonin. A macromolecule that becomes attached to the surface of a microbe and can be recognized by surface receptors of neutrophils and macrophages and that increase the efficiency of phagocytosis of the microbe. Opsonins includeIgG antibodies, which are recognized by the Fc receptor on phagocytes, and fragment of complement proteins, which are recognized by CR1.

  37. FcgR and Complement Receptors Cooperate To Induce Greater Phagocytosis
