antibodies
Across
- 4. Antibodies- are produced from a clone of the antibody-producing B-cells
- 7. - blood protein produced in response to and counteracting a specific antigen
- 9. fragment antigen bonding
- 12. repertoire- The total number of antibody specificities available to an individual is known as the
- 13. immunity- nonspecific immunity that humans are born with
- 14. regions - provide a binding surface that is complementary to that of the antigen.
- 16. Chain- consist of Kappa and Lambda
- 17. fragment crystallizable
- 20. - the movement of leukocytes from the blood vessel to the infected tissue.
Down
- 1. (peripheral) lymphoid organs: mature lymphocytes interact with antigen
- 2. - coating of a pathogen with a protein that facilitates phagocytosis
- 3. antigen- antigen that contains more than one epitope, or more than one copy of the same epitope
- 5. Immunity- Combats pathogens via antibodies
- 6. Part of the pathogen that the antibody binds to
- 8. - cells responsible for cell-mediated immunity, mature in the thymus
- 10. immunity- specific immunity that develops over time
- 11. Structure - two light chains and two heavy chains
- 15. - cells responsible for antibody-mediated immunity, mature in the bone marrow
- 18. pathway- This pathway is initiated by antibody binding
- 19. - the smallest-known functional antibody fragment
- 21. - protein capable of initiating an immune response
