Immunoglobulin G antibody molecule C013 / 7916
Immunoglobulin G antibody molecule. Computer model of the secondary structure of immunoglobulin G (IgG). This is the most abundant immunoglobulin and is found in all body fluids. Each Y-shaped molecule has two arms (top) that can bind to specific antigens, for instance bacterial or viral 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 print showcases the intricate structure of an Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody molecule. The computer-generated model beautifully illustrates the secondary structure of IgG, which is the most abundant immunoglobulin present in all body fluids. The Y-shaped molecule featured in this artwork possesses two arms that have the remarkable ability to bind specifically to antigens such as bacterial or viral proteins. By doing so, they effectively label these antigens for destruction by phagocytes - white blood cells responsible for ingesting and eliminating foreign substances from our bodies. Not only do antibodies mark pathogens for destruction, but they also possess the power to directly kill certain types of harmful microorganisms and neutralize toxins. This makes them a crucial component of our immune system's defense mechanism. Displayed against a black background, this molecular masterpiece highlights the complexity and elegance found within our own biological makeup. It serves as a reminder of how intricately designed our immune system is, constantly working behind-the-scenes to protect us from potential threats. This stunning artwork was created by LAGUNA DESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY and captures both the scientific essence and artistic beauty inherent in understanding immunology, biochemistry, and proteomics at a molecular level.
