Immunoglobulin G antibody molecule C016 / 4462
Immunoglobulin G antibody molecule. Computer artwork of a model of the secondary structure of immunoglobulin G (IgG). This is the most abundant immunoglobulin and is found in all body fluids. Each Y-shaped molecule has two arms (top) that can bind to specific antigens, for instance bacterial or viral proteins. In doing this they mark the antigen for destruction by phagocytes, white blood cells that ingest and destroy foreign bodies. Antibodies can also kill some pathogens directly, and can neutralise toxins

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of an Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody molecule. Created through computer artwork, this model represents the secondary structure of IgG, which is the most abundant immunoglobulin found in all body fluids. The Y-shaped molecule depicted here possesses two arms at its top that possess the remarkable ability to bind to specific antigens such as bacterial or viral proteins. Through this binding process, these antibodies mark antigens for destruction by phagocytes - white blood cells responsible for ingesting and eliminating foreign bodies. However, their role doesn't end there; antibodies can also directly kill certain pathogens and neutralize toxins present in our system. The black backdrop beautifully contrasts with the detailed illustration of this human IgG antibody molecule's heavy and light chains. This image not only highlights the complexity of our immune system but also emphasizes the crucial role played by molecular structures like IgG in protecting our biological well-being. With its scientific significance and aesthetic appeal, this print serves as a testament to both biochemistry and proteomics research. It reminds us of how antibodies act as powerful defenders within our bodies against harmful invaders while showcasing the beauty hidden within biological molecules at a microscopic level.
