Which domain of antibody defines its type and which domain is for specificity against antigen. Also explain the rearrangement of genes for IgA.
Adjuvants are substances that slow but do not stop the release of anantigen from an injection site into the blood. Suppose injection A isgiven without an adjuvant and injection B of the same amount ofantigen is given with an adjuvant that causes antigen to be releasedover a period of 2–3 weeks. Does injection A or injection B result inthe greater amount of antibody production? Explain.
What are the different properties of an antigenEnumerate and discuss the concept of antigenicityIdentify and differentiate the different types of antigenWhat are the different properties of an antibodyDifferentiate the various types of antibodies
Some Type-II immunopathology mediated autoimmune diseases have manifestations inmultiple different organs. Discuss how antibodies to one single antigen can cause damage inmultiple sites throughout the body. Things you might discuss include, but are not limited towhere the antigen could be expressed, how antibodies are made, how they bind antigen,where they circulate, the ratios of antigen to antibody, mechanisms of the immune systemthat result in cellular/tissue damage, or how immune system components can affect otherorgans. You might also comment on what makes one antigen an attractive target rather thananother. Please do NOT comment on all the things listed above, they are just to get youthinking. If you are having trouble getting started, it might help to think about a specificdisease which affects multiple organs.
Consider a pencil-shaped protein with two epitopes, Y (the “eraser” end) and Z (the “point” end). They are recognized by antibodies A1 and A2, respectively. Draw and label a picture showing the antibodies linking proteins into a complex that could trigger endocytosis by a macrophage.
Why is it necessary for immature T lymphocytes toundergo a two-step selection process through whichantigen-reactive cells are first selected followed bythe elimination of cells that react strongly withself-antigens?

Diagram the structure of an antibody. What parts bind toantigens? Why does each antibody bind only to one or afew specific antigens?
Which cleavage pattern (indicated by the red triangles in figure below) yields a fragment that has the same antigen-binding avidity as the intact antibody, but is unable to activate complement after binding to a pathogen?
Tumour associated macrophages (TAMS) represent up to 50% of cells in solid tumours. Explain how these cells contribute to immunosuppression in the tumour microenvironment and how they help tumour cells to evade anti-tumour immune responses
Somatic cells can display antigen [small peptides] and present them to the body’s immunesystem via their MHC/HLA receptor displays. Discuss the paths for MHC/HLA1 vs. MHC/HLA2display. How do these two paths fit into the health of the body, and the response of theimmune system to normal/disease/infection?
