Merck, I1886-2ML, Anti-Human IgG (whole molecule) antibody produced in goat

Human IgGs are glycoprotein antibodies that contain two equivalent light chains and a pair of identical heavy chains. IgGs have four distinct isoforms, ranging from IgG1 to IgG4. These antibodies regulate immunological responses to allergy and pathogenic infections. IgGs have also been implicated in complement fixation and autoimmune disorders . Anti-human IgG (whole molecule) antibody is specific for human IgG when tested against normal human serum and IgG by immunoelectrophoresis. The antibody also reacts with light chains. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is part of the immunoglobulin family and is a widely expressed serum antibody. It consists of a γ heavy chain in the constant (C) region. The primary structure of this antibody contains disulfide bonds involved in linking the two heavy chains, linking the heavy and light chains and also resides inside the chains.
