General description

Immunoglobulins (Igs) belongs to the immunoglobulin super-family. There are five different types of Immunoglobulins. Each immunoglobin has two heavy (H) and two light (L) chains, held together by disulphide linkages. Each light chain comprises of one variable N-terminal region and a constant C-terminal region. Heavy chain has one variable N-terminal region and three or four constant (CH1-CH4) C-terminal regions. The four classes of IgG can be IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4.

Application

Anti-Human IgG (whole molecule) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.

Biochem/physiol Actions

IgG antibody subtype is the most abundant of serum immunoglobulins of the immune system. It is secreted by B cells and is found in blood and extracellular fluids and provides protection from infections caused by bacteria, fungi and viruses. Maternal IgG is transferred to fetus through the placenta that is vital for immune defense of the neonate against infections.
IgG1 deficiency results in hypogammaglobulinemia. IgG2 deficiency increases susceptibility to bacterial infections, IgG3 mediates effector functions and IgG4 is associated with asymptomatic infection. IgG antibodies have enormous therapeutic potential and the Fc region is for the development of therapeutic antibody.

Maternal immunoglobulin G (IgG), transferred across the placenta to the fetus during intrauterine life, is an important component of the neonatal immunological defence mechanisms against infection. There is controversy with respect to differences in placental transfer of the different IgG

Of the five immunoglobulin isotypes, immunoglobulin G (IgG) is most abundant in human serum. The four subclasses, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4, which are highly conserved, differ in their constant region, particularly in their hinges and upper CH2 domains. These
