FAQs

What are the main parts of an antibody? The antibody has three main parts: two Fab regions that bind antigens, one Fc region that interacts with immune cells, and a hinge region for flexibility.

How do antibodies recognize so many different antigens? The variable regions of heavy and light chains have huge sequence diversity, creating millions of unique binding sites.
