What is the blood cell protein that elicits an immune reaction?
The protein that elicits an immune reaction in blood cells is called an antigen. Antigens are typically foreign substances that trigger an immune response when they are detected by the immune system.
What is the difference between a antigen and a processed antigen?
An antigen can be anything from virus to bacteria to a soluble protein from outside or inside a cell. This includes both foreign and self peptides. An antibody that finds an appropriate antigen will bind to it and your B and T cells determine if it's self or not. A processed antigen came from cytosol. A protein will be taken by ubiquitin to a proteosome where it is broken up into small peptides. These peptides will make their way into the endoplasmic reticulum (through TAP) where they are exposed to MHC's.
CRP is a sign of the inflammation of what part of the body?
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a sign of inflammation in the walls of arteries.
When is the repressor protein transcribed?
The repressor protein is transcribed when the gene coding for it is activated. This often occurs in response to specific signals or conditions in the cell. The repressor protein then acts to regulate the expression of other genes in the cell by binding to specific DNA sequences.
Sections of DNA that code for a particular protein are called?
Sections of DNA that code for a particular protein are called genes. These genes contain the instructions for assembling specific proteins through a process known as gene expression.
What is the protein made in a response to a specific antigen called?
An antigen is a protein made in response to a specific antigen.
What is formed in the blood to fight invading antigens?
Antibody is a protein made in response to a specific antigen. The antibody attaches to the antigen and makes it useless.
What is the medical term meaning a specific protein evoked by an antigen?
An antibody is a specific protein evoked by an antigen.
Order of size of earth in the solar system?
Noun A blood protein produced in response to and counteracting a specific antigen
What is a protein thatacts against a specific antigen?
An antibody is a protein that acts against a specific antigen by binding to it and marking it for destruction by the immune system. Antibodies are produced by B cells in response to the presence of foreign substances in the body.
What is a disease- fighting protein created by the immune system in response to the presence of specific antigen?
Antibody - produced by B lymphocytes.
What is a disease-fighting protein created by the immune system in response to the presence of a specific antigen?
Antibody - produced by B lymphocytes.
What are antigens and antibodies?
antigen-a toxin or other foreign substance that induces an immune response in the body, especially the production of antibodies.Antibodies-a blood protein produced in response to and counteracting a specific antigen. Antibodies combine chemically with substances that the body recognizes as alien, such as bacteria, viruses, and foreign substances in the blood.
The y- shaped protein that is produced by plasma cells upon exposure to a specific antigen and can bind to that antigen is called a?
antibody

A foreign molecule that causes a specific immune response is?
Depending on the exact response, the substance is generally called a pathogen, yet more specifically depending on the nature of the response and origin of the substance, could be an antigen, allergen, carcinogen, etc.
What function of this protein is to bind to a specific antigen preventing it from attacking host cells?
Antibody.
