Is T cell activation antigen specific?

Yes. The first signal that a T cell receives from an antigen presenting cell (dendritic cell) is MHC presenting an antigen (foreign peptide). This gives the T cell specificity to this antigen.


What compound contains a peptide bond?

A peptide bond is formed between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another amino acid. When multiple amino acids are linked together through peptide bonds, they form a compound known as a peptide or a protein.


What is the difference between amine and peptide hormones?

Amine hormones are derived from amino acids, such as epinephrine and dopamine, and are typically water-soluble. Peptide hormones are made up of short amino acid chains and are also water-soluble. Peptide hormones include insulin and growth hormone.


Which of the following is NOT true about antibodies a. an antibody has more than one antigen binding site b. a pathogen can have different epitopes c. a pathogen makes more than one antigen?

c. a pathogen makes more than one antigen. Pathogens typically have multiple epitopes that can be recognized by antibodies, but they do not make more than one antigen. Each pathogen produces specific antigens that can trigger an immune response.


What is the first signal required for activation of a T cell?
