Descriptor inmunoglobulinas
Entry term(s) inmunoglobulina
Scope note: Proteínas de múltiples subunidades que funcionan en la INMUNIDAD. Son producidas por los LINFOCITOS B a partir de los GENES DE LAS INMUNOGLOBULINAS. Están compuestos de dos cadenas pesadas y (CADENAS PESADAS DE LAS INMUNOGLOBULINAS) y de dos cadenas ligeras (CADENAS LIGERAS DE LAS INMUNOGLOBULINAS) con cadenas polipeptídicas secundarias adicionales dependiendo de sus isoformas. La variedad de isoformas incluye formas monoméricas o poliméricas y formas transmembranarias (RECEPTORES DE ANTÍGENOS DE LAS CÉLULAS B) o formas segregadas (ANTICUERPOS). Se dividen por la secuencia de aminoácidos de las cadenas pesadas en cinco clases (INMUNOGLOBULINA A, INMUNOGLOBULINA D, INMUNOGLOBULINA E, INMUNOGLOBULINA G, INMUNOGLOBULINA M) y varias subclases.

Scope note: Multi-subunit proteins which function in IMMUNITY. They are produced by B LYMPHOCYTES from the IMMUNOGLOBULIN GENES. They are comprised of two heavy (IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAINS) and two light chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAINS) with additional ancillary polypeptide chains depending on their isoforms. The variety of isoforms include monomeric or polymeric forms, and transmembrane forms (B-CELL ANTIGEN RECEPTORS) or secreted forms (ANTIBODIES). They are divided by the amino acid sequence of their heavy chains into five classes (IMMUNOGLOBULIN A; IMMUNOGLOBULIN D; IMMUNOGLOBULIN E; IMMUNOGLOBULIN G; IMMUNOGLOBULIN M) and various subclasses.
