IgGsynteesi
IgGsynteesi, or immunoglobulin G (IgG) synthesis, refers to the biological process by which the immune system produces antibodies of the IgG class. IgG antibodies are the most abundant and versatile type of antibody found in the blood and extracellular fluid of vertebrates, playing a crucial role in defending against infections and neutralizing toxins.
The synthesis of IgG begins in B lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell. When an antigen—a
IgG antibodies consist of four polypeptide chains: two identical heavy chains and two identical light chains.
IgGsynteesi is essential for long-term immunity, as IgG antibodies can cross the placental barrier, providing passive
