YES
It is a T or Y-shaped monomer of 4 looping linked polypeptide chains
An active antibody is a Y-shaped protein molecule that is produced by the immune system in response to the presence of a foreign substance (antigen) in the body. The two arms of the Y-shaped antibody can bind to specific antigens, marking them for destruction by other immune system cells.
No, it is not. Antibody = A protein that fights infection.

An antibody is a y shaped molecule which is specific to a particular antigen, it is a globular protein which is made by white blood cells called lymphocytes. These defend the body against antigens (alien cells).
Antibody
Yes, an antibody is a type of protein that is produced by the immune system to help fight off infections and diseases.
Protein molecules can be identified through techniques such as mass spectrometry, gel electrophoresis, and antibody-based assays. These methods analyze the size, shape, and chemical properties of the protein to determine its identity.
Generally there are two antibodies used. Primary antibody which can bind specifically to the protein of interest. And a secondary antibody coupled with a detection system such as HRP that would bind the primary antibody and signals the presence of protein of interest.
Antibody - produced by B lymphocytes.
