چکیده

Fragment C-1, the N-terminal half of the heavy chain of rabbit immunoglobulin G, was prepared by cyanogen bromide cleavage from the heavy chain of immunoglobulin G obtained both from the pooled serum of normal rabbits and from specific anti-dinitrophenyl antibody. Tryptic digestion of fragment C-1 after the lysine residues had been allowed to react with S-ethyl trifluorothioacetate led to the isolation of six peptides from inert immunoglobulin G and specific antibody that appear to account for most of this section of the heavy chain. This approach should make possible comparative sequence studies of the Fd section of the heavy chain from different allotypes and from specific antibodies.

Development and characterization of polyclonal antibody against human kappa light chain in rabbit

Polyclonal antibodies against kappa light chain are used to diagnose diseases producing free light chain. The kappa and lambda light chains are products of immunoglobulin synthesis and released into the circulation in minor amounts such as serum, cerebrospinal fluid, urine and synovial fluid in normal condition. The purpose of this study was the production and purification of polyclonal immunog...

Construction of a human recombinant polyclonal Fab fragment antibody library using peripheral blood lymphocytes of snake bitten victims

Human snake bitten poisoning is a serious threat in many tropical and subtropical countries such as Iran. The best acceptable treatment of envenomated humans is antivenoms; however they have a series of economic and medical problems and need more improvements. In this study a combinatorial human immunoglobulin gene library against some of Iranian snakes venoms was constructed. Total RNA prepare...

A Case of Bruton’s Disease with Normal Immunoglobulin G Level

X-linked agamaglobulinemia (XLA) or Bruton’s disease is a genetic disease resulting from a mutation in the Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (Btk) gene. This mutation leads to B cell arrest during differentiation (1). This disease was first described by Ogden Bruton in 1952 (2). Approximately 85% of the affected subjects are male (3). This disorder is inherited as an X-linked recessive trait. Carrier fe...

Importace of monoclonal immunoglobulin in Sjögren’s syndrome

Background: Sjögren’s syndrome is the second most common systemic autoimmune disease after rheumatoid arthritis, RA, with a prevalence of about 0.5% in the general population. It occurs primarily in perimenopausal women (at a ratio of women to men of 9: 1) Sjögren’s syndrome is characterized by lymphocytic infiltration to exocrine glands. The specific autoantibodies of this syndrome are against...

Identification of conformational epitopes on fragment crystallizable region of human Immunoglobulin G by immunoinformatic

Background: Immunoglobulins are a group of proteins have important role in defense against microorganisms. Human immunoglobulins are divided into five classes: IgA, IgM, IgD, IgE and IgG. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is the highest abundant antibody in serum and extravascular fluids. The extent of serum IgG is related to severity of several diseases such as infections, so IgG has great diagnostic wor...
