Consequently, a single antibody molecule can simultaneously bind two identical epitopes on the same antigen. Diagram of an antibody structure showing its key components, including antigen binding ...

Antibodies bind to specific antigens on pathogens. This means that only one type of antibody will bind to a matching antigen. For example, an antibody that can recognise an antigen on the ...

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) may directly stall or kill tumour cells by binding tumour cell-specific antigens, or indirectly kill tumour cells by inhibiting the immune checkpoint molecules that ...
