Disulfide Connectivity of Human Immunoglobulin G2 Structural Isoforms
13 Jun 2008
Abstract excerpt
In this communication we present the detailed disulfide structure of IgG2 molecules. The consensus structural model of human IgGs represents the hinge region positioned as a flexible linker connecting structurally isolated Fc and Fab domains. IgG2 molecules are organized differently from that model and exhibit multiple structural isoforms composed of (heavy chain-light chain-hinge) covalent complexes. We describe...
