Study Notes
Immunoglobulins and Receptors
- Two possible proteins for the light chain in an immunoglobulin: κ (kappa) and λ (lambda)
Immunoglobulin Structure
- IgM has 5 antigen binding sites in its normal arrangement
T Cell Receptors (TCRs)
- Correct structure: αβ or γδ (alpha-beta or gamma-delta)
B Cell Receptors (BCRs)
- Signals are mediated by Igα and Igβ proteins
Antigen Recognition
- B cell receptors (BCRs) mainly recognize protein antigens
