Antigenic relationships among various interferon species

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences

Abstract

Mouse L-cell interferon consists of two antigenically distinct species, F (22 to 24K) and S(32 to 40K). Various type I mouse interferons, regardless of lymphoid or nonlymphoid origin, likewise consist of two species, whose antigenicities are indistinguishable from the two L-cell interferons. Interferon F was found to be completely neutralizable by an antiserum against human leukocyte interferon, suggesting a structural similarity between the important species of human and mouse interferons.

Antibody Specificity

Antibodies produced by B cells are highly specific for antigen as a result of random gene recombination and somatic hypermutation and affinity maturation. As the main effector of the humoral immune system, antibodies can neutralize foreign cells. Find the latest research on antibody specificity here.
