Viral recognition by antibodies, artwork C013 / 4722
Viral recognition by antibodies. Computer artwork of rabies (family Rhabdoviridae) virus particles (virions, pink) being identified by monoclonal antibodies (Y-shaped, blue). The rabies virus is transmitted to man from infected animal bites. Antibodies, or immunoglobulin, molecules have two arms that can bind to specific antigens, for instance viral or bacterial proteins. In doing this they mark the antigen for destruction by phagocytes, white blood cells that ingest and destroy foreign bodies. Antibodies can also kill some pathogens directly and can neutralise toxins

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Viral recognition by antibodies" showcases the intricate process of how our immune system identifies and attacks harmful pathogens. In this computer-generated illustration, we see pink rabies virus particles (virions) being targeted by blue monoclonal antibodies. The rabies virus is transmitted to humans through infected animal bites, making it a dangerous and potentially fatal disease. However, our immune system's defense mechanism comes into play with the help of these Y-shaped antibodies. Antibodies are immunoglobulin molecules that possess two arms capable of binding to specific antigens like viral or bacterial proteins. By attaching themselves to the viral particles, these antibodies mark them for destruction by phagocytes – white blood cells responsible for engulfing and eliminating foreign substances from our bodies. Moreover, antibodies can directly kill certain pathogens and neutralize toxins as well. This visually stunning artwork not only highlights the molecular structure of both viruses and antibodies but also emphasizes their crucial role in protecting us against infectious diseases. Through biochemical interactions and biological processes, our immune system recognizes these pathogenic invaders and launches an attack to eliminate them effectively. With its vibrant colors set against a clean white background, this print serves as a reminder of the remarkable complexity within our bodies' defenses while showcasing the beauty found in scientific illustrations.
