1 Chapter 4. Immunoglobulin Structureand Function1. Functional Regions2. Types of chains3. Constant &Variable regions4. Glycoprotein- Each heavy and light chainis made up of a number ofdomains(= Ig folding or Igdomains).- Light chains consist of 2 domains (C and V).- Heavy chains have 4-5 domains(depending on the class of Antibody )- Each domain is about 110amino acidsin length andcontains an intrachaindisulfide bond between two cysteines about 60 amino acids chain= 446 aaLight chain= 214aa1122**-150,000 molecular weight-Constant (C) and Variable (V) regionsWhat is the difference?
