(Variable region) Light chain (Constant region) Heavy chain What is antibody ? Antibody (IgG type) VH VL CH1 CL CH2 CH3 Protein secreted from lymphocytes (B cell, plasma cell) Several classes, IgG MW about 150000 Binding with many kinds antigens (proteins, sugars, toxins, virus, microorganisms and so on)
(Variable region) Light chain (Constant region) Heavy chain Antibody (IgG type) VH VL CH1 CL CH2 CH3 Variable region Antigen binding site ------- Binding with wide variety of antigens Complementarity-determining region, CDR Constant region Opsonization, Compliment activation, Activation of NK cell Large number of repertoire and specificity against antigens
Why antibodies can bind with wide variety of antigens ? Huge number of repertory Hypervariable regions gene variation CDR regions in VH and VL Rearrangement of gene in B and T cells What is the genetic mechanism of diversification of antigen repertoire ?
antibodies Clonal selection of B cell repertoire by antigen
Preparation of hybridoma cells producing a monoclonal antibody • Monoclonal antibody • Homogeneous antibody that recognizes a single type of antigenic site 1. B cells from an immunized animal are fused with immortal lymphocytes called myeloma cells. 2. In HAT medium, the unfused cells and the myeloma cells do not grow. The B cells have a limited life span in culture. Only fused cells formed from a myeloma cell and a B cell (hybridoma cells) can survive in HAT medium. 3. Each selected hybridoma cell is tested for the production of the desired antibody. (containing hypoxanthine, aminopterin, and thymidine)
How is antibody synthesized in vivo ? Immunosystem The body is protected from infectious agents and from other harmful substances.
