PPT-IMMUNOGLOBULINS Structure, function and types

Dr Vinod KV Also known as antibodies They are glycoproteins produced by the body against antigenic stimulus Synthesised by B lymphocytes Basic structure Igs are glycoproteins Made up of two pairs of polypeptide chains. Gustavo Caetano - . Anolles. 1. PowerPoint by Casey . Hanson. Protein Sequence, Structure, and Function | Gustavo Caetano - Anolles | 2015. Exercise. In this exercise we will be doing the following:. UNIFYING CONCEPTS IN ANIMAL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION. STRUCTURE FITS FUNCTION IN THE ANIMAL BODY. ANATOMY. DEF . . THE STUDY OF THE STRUCTURE OF AN ORGANISM. PHYSIOLOGY. DEF . . THE STUDY OF THE FUNCTIONS AN ORGANISM PERFORMS. Cell/Developmental Biology I. Group Members. Kelly Hogan, Facilitator . Rita Graze. Matthew . Kearley. . Zheng-Hua. Ye. Xiaoyu. Zhang. Christine Sestero. Heather Tinsley. Learning Goal: . Understand . Misha. Kazhdan. What do we want to compute?. (What established theory can we apply?). How do we compute it effectively?. (How do we implement efficiently/robustly?). Geometry Processing in Detail. Symmetry Detection. Dr. . Nasim. PGT Biochemistry. Antibodies. Proteins that recognize and bind to a particular antigen with very high . specificity. .. Made in response to exposure to the antigen.. Each antibody has at least two identical sites that bind antigen: . Characteristics of a variable of a specific ‘data type’ . has specific values or range of values that it can hold. Ex. char variables can hold only characters defined by the ASCII or extended ASCII code sets (i.e. 0 to 255). What is structure?. What is function?. The . structure. is the shape of each part of a living thing. . Function. . describes how the part . is used . or how it works.. Velcro, a road reflector, a video game joystick, and a submarine's ballast tanks all have structures inspired by nature.. Part II: Proteins & Nucleic Acids. The FOUR Classes of Large Biomolecules. All living things are made up of four classes of large biological molecules: . Carbohydrates . Lipids. Protein. N. ucleic Acids. The Structure and Function of Macromolecules Part II: Proteins & Nucleic Acids The FOUR Classes of Large Biomolecules All living things are made up of four classes of large biological molecules: ADIPOSE TISSUE STRUCTURE;TYPES; AND FUNCTION WHAT IS ADIPOSE TISSUE? Adipose tissue, or fat, is an anatomical term for loose connective tissue composed of adipocytes . Its main role is to store energy in the form of fat, although it also cushions and insulates the body Structure. Main component is phospholipids that are arranged in a double layer (. bilayer. ). Has scattered proteins within the phospholipids. Regulate what enters/leaves cell. Function . Nucleus. Structure. Success criteria:. I can identify the different types of teeth. I can explain the function of each type of tooth . I know how to keep my teeth healthy . I can begin to use knowledge of an animal’s diet to identify which teeth belong to which animal. Lec.4. . Dr. Mustafa Jawad. Definition of Immunoglobulins (Igs). Immunoglobulins, also known as . antibodies. , are glycoprotein molecules produced by . plasma cells . (B-cell). . They . act as a critical part of the immune response by specifically . Immunoglobulin Genes. immunoglobulins. The two hallmarks of . immunoglobulins. as antigen-binding proteins are the . specificity of each for a particular epitope target and their diversity as a group. In addition to antigen binding, however, .
