Antibody molecule F007 / 0109
Antibody molecule. Crystal structure of a monoclonal immunoglobulin (IgG2a). IgG antibodies are composed of 2 long heavy chains and 2 shorter light chains. This antibody adopts a T-shape: the arms of the T make up the Fab or antigen binding region, while the base part or Fc region plays a role in interacting with the immune system. Atoms are represented as spheres; This black and white ambient occlusion rendering gives a clear picture of the overall 3D structure of an antibody

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of an antibody molecule, specifically Antibody F007 / 0109. The crystal structure of this monoclonal immunoglobulin (IgG2a) is beautifully depicted, revealing its T-shaped form. Composed of two long heavy chains and two shorter light chains, IgG antibodies play a crucial role in our immune system. The arms of the T-shape represent the Fab or antigen binding region, where this antibody interacts with foreign substances to neutralize them. On the other hand, the base part or Fc region is responsible for interacting with our immune system to trigger various defense mechanisms. Using spheres to represent atoms, this ambient occlusion rendering provides a clear visualization of the overall three-dimensional structure of an antibody. It serves as a valuable tool in understanding how these molecules function and interact within our bodies. With keywords like treatment, medicine, drug, chemistry, and biochemistry associated with this image, it highlights its relevance in pharmacology and medical research. This molecular model holds immense significance in fields such as immunology and biotechnology. Captured by MOLEKUUL/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY's expertise in scientific photography and illustration techniques, this artwork offers both aesthetic appeal and educational value. It allows us to appreciate the complexity behind one of nature's remarkable creations – antibodies – which safeguard our health by recognizing and combating harmful invaders.
