General description
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is expressed in the serum and is part of the immunoglobulin family. It consists of a γ heavy chain in the constant (C) region. The monomeric 150kDa structure of IgG constitutes two identical heavy chains and two identical light chains with molecular weight of 50kDa and 25kDa, respectively. The primary structure of this antibody also contains disulfide bonds involved in linking the two heavy chains, linking the heavy and light chains and resides inside the chains. Maternal IgG is the only antibody transported across the placenta to the fetus and it passively immunizes the infants. IgG is further subdivided into four classes namely, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4 with different heavy chains, named γ1, γ2, γ3, and γ4, respectively. IgG2 is involved in immune responses to bacterial capsular polysaccharide antigens. Its deficiency has been linked to an increased susceptibility to bacterial infections.
Specificity
This product was prepared from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography using antigens coupled to agarose beads followed by solid phase adsorption(s) to remove any unwanted reactivities. Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against Anti-Rabbit Serum, Mouse Serum and Mouse IgG.
Immunogen
Mouse IgG2b heavy chain

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
