What else can I help you with?
The basic determinating feature of antigenic specificity is ...........?
The basic determining feature of antigenic specificity is the unique structure of antigenic epitopes, which are the specific regions on an antigen recognized by antibodies or T cell receptors. These epitopes interact with corresponding binding sites on antibodies or T cell receptors, leading to the immune response against the antigen.
What is bound to the surface of a B cell?
Antibodies are bound to the surface of a B cell. These antibodies serve as receptors that allow the B cell to recognize and bind to specific antigens. This binding process helps initiate the immune response by activating the B cell to differentiate into plasma cells that secrete antibodies.
What is the Cell that receives and transmit information?
nerve cell or receptors nerve cell or receptors nerve cell or receptors
What do intracellular receptors do?
The intracellular receptors differ from membrane receptors based on their location. Membrane receptors are usually on the plasma membrane but the intracellular receptors are found inside the cell.
A mature B cell that mass produces antibodies is called a?
A mature B cell that mass produces antibodies is called a plasma cell. Plasma cells are differentiated B cells that are specialized for producing large quantities of antibodies to help fight infections.
One similarity between cell receptors and antibodies is that both?
highly specific
One similarity between cell receptors and antibodies is?
Are highly specific in their actions
What do IgE antibodies T cell receptors and MHC molecules have in common?
They are all players of your adaptive immunity.
A specific protein that recognizes certain molecules?
There are antibodies and cell-surface receptors and enzymes; is there a more specific A. in view?
What is one similarity between cell receptors and antibodies?
Both agents are highly specific in their actions, and respond to a specific stimulus.

What are the differences between Bcell receptors and Tcell receptors?
there are different types of b cell and t cell. both are lymphocytes, a subclass of white blood cell. the t cells are mainly used in identifying antigens and releasing chemicals which attact macrophages (big immune cells which 'eat' antigens), to destroy the antigen. b cells are used in the production of antibodies. when they encounter a new antigen, plasma cells and memory cells are formed from the division of a b cell. the memory cell remembers the antigen and which antibody to use, while the plasma cell makes the antibodies to fight a particular antigen or class of antigens
How are allergens and antigens similar?
Antibodies (Abs), T cell receptors (TCRs) and MHC molecules are all involved in the adaptive immune response. All 3 of these (Abs, TCRs and MHCs) have a range of diversity of structure and are composed of different chains. In most animals (including humans) antibodies are composed of 2 heavy chains and 2 light chains, each of which has constant and variable regions. This is very similar to a T cell receptor, which is composed of an α (alpha) and β (beta) chain - which have a contant and variable region. In both cases, it is the variable region(s) which determines what the antibody or the T cell receptor can bind to. This is very important for their function. T cell receptors (TCRs) and antibodies (Abs) are also similar in that their genes are combined and spliced in different ways to create diversity. It is important that both TCRs and Abs be able to recognise may different things. MHC molecules are responsible for presenting antigens to T cell receptors. Once again, they are composed of an α (alpha) and β (beta) chain, which are different depending on whether they are MHC I or MHC II.
What is the Cell that receives and transmit information?
nerve cell or receptors nerve cell or receptors nerve cell or receptors
What do intracellular receptors do?
The intracellular receptors differ from membrane receptors based on their location. Membrane receptors are usually on the plasma membrane but the intracellular receptors are found inside the cell.
Antibodies can stick to?
Antibodies stick to any viruses or infections. They don't attack, but they are like homing devices. They track the diseases so white blood cells (the attackers) know where the diseases are.
