What is the process by which an antibody binds to an antigen?
The process by which an antibody binds to an antigen is called antigen-antibody binding. This occurs when the antibody recognizes and attaches to a specific part of the antigen, forming a complex that helps the immune system identify and neutralize the antigen.
What happens when antibody binds an antigen?
It causes pathogens to stick together.
What Is the difference between antigen binding site and paratope?
Antigen binding site or epitope is a part of an antigen that is recognized by the antibody. Paratope is a part of an antibody that binds on epitope.
Which antibody function binds antibodies to soluble antigen molecules?
precipitation
What happens when an antigen and its matching antibody meet up in your body?
When an antigen and its matching antibody meet in the body, the antibody binds to the antigen, marking it for destruction by the immune system. This process helps to neutralize the antigen and prevent further harm to the body.
What is a synonym for antigenic determinant?
It is the place where antibody binds after recognizing the antigen
What is Antigen A?
An antigen is actually foreign or toxic to the human body. It stimulates an adaptive immune response and binds to a antibody.
An antibody oponizes invading organisms is in order to enhance the function of?
To enhance the function of phagocytosis. The antibody binds to the antigen (on the organism). The antibody also binds to the phagocyte thus facilitating the coming together of the antibody and phagocyte and phagocytosis can then proceed.
What are the differences between sandwich ELISA and indirect ELISA?
Sandwich ELISA directly detects the antigen using two antibodies, while indirect ELISA detects the antigen using a primary antibody and a secondary antibody that binds to the primary antibody.
What bind with specific antigens in the antigen-antibody response?
The Fab portion of the antibody is what determines the idiotype. The Fab portion consists of both a heavy and light chain and is connected to the Fc region (isotype). Every B cell will express a different Fab structure and in a single B cell it will produce only the same Fab.
Is glycoprotein an antigen or antibody?
Antibody
What region of an antibody does the antigen bind to?
epitopes on the antigen while the paratopes on the antibody
