Abs Flashcards
Define antibodies
Glycoprotein found mainly in gamma-globulin fraction of serum
The antibodies differs in the ——- chain and define the type of a.b
Heavy
Ig allotypes→ these markers are on the…………. ab region with L or H and are…….…….. It is genetically different
allotypes are used fo………..testing
constant
Individual specific
Paternity
Idiotypes
They lie in the……….ab region
its composed of a bunch of different………………
Variable / idiotopes for (epitope binding site)
IgG (1,2,3,4)
IgG is …..% of total Ig pool (موجود بكل مكان “diffusible”)
Activities of IgG………….,…………,…………,…………,………..
70~75
Complent fixation , toxin neutralization, pass placenta(passive immunity (except IgG 2 )) , opsinization , ADCC , 2ry IR (memory )
IgM (the largest & strongest)
it has … binding sites (non diffuse ) bcr /……IR / come from …… b-cells / stronger than …
Activity:
10 /primary/naive/ IgG
Ccp activation / doesn’t pass placenta (diagnosis of intra uterine inf &recent inf)
As AB against blood groups / bacteremia/ TI Ag
IgD
Less than…% of total Abs
1
IgA
It’s—-% of total abs /it mainly occur as …………
IgA can be inactivated by IgA protease by ……………. , ……………… , …………
IgA 2 is more imp in mucousal
Activity → gpa
15~20 / Monomer
Gonococci / pneumonococci / H influenza
Gate keeper / prevent » adherence + attachment +Auto immune + allergy

Highly specific abs vs a single epitope
Diagnostic & lab / genetic engineering / therapeutic uses / immunization → passive(anti-venom, anti-rh, anti-toxin) + active (anti idiotopes vaccine )
