Current cancer vaccines use antibodies as targeting systems to find these dendritic cells. Antibodies are Y-shaped proteins that can lock onto specific structures on cell surfaces, like a key fitting ...

This image shows the structure of an antibody (Y-shaped) and how it binds to different types of antigens (color-coded shapes at the top). The antibody's binding sites, located at the ends of its arms, ...

Researchers at Stanford found that sialic acid-rich antibodies can lessen flu severity by binding to anti-inflammatory ...

The antibody molecules circulating in our blood and known to immunologists as IgG (the acronym stands for "immunoglobin G") are roughly Y-shaped. The Y's horns are customized to cling to specific ...

Much of the discussion around Covid-19 immunity has focused on antibodies - Y-shaped proteins which act like "missiles shooting down a target", assistant Prof Buggert explained. They bind to the ...
