Antigen (Ag) the molecule an antibody (Ab) binds
to
n Small organic molecules can become antigens
usually a foreign substance if they bind to proteins.
each antigen has different sites that antibodies n Become antigenic determinant sites on the
can bind to, so that one antigen can be bound by proteins.
several different antibodies By binding haptens to proteins in the
laboratory, new antigens are created for
research or diagnostic purposes.

The top part of this figure shows how different shaped antigens
can fit into the binding site of antibodies: left, pocket; center,
groove; right, extended surface. The panels below show space-
filling or computer-generated models indicating where contact
between the peptide antigen and antibody occurs.

all the proteins you need in your entire body, most of which
are not Ab

Since there are multiple types of each gene segment, there
are many thousands of possible V-D-J combinations so that
Antibody Genes each B cell gets a unique combination of segments! Additional
diversity occurs because there are two types of light chains.
