Antigenic

... complement to their cellular surfaces, and can evade these mechanisms of the host immune system. However, the bacterial polysaccharide is directly antigenic, so antibody response against different capsular polysaccharides will eventually be built by the host, rendering certain strains vulnerable. ...

... that have been suitably investigated often exhibit functional roles, such as gene expression, gene regulation, generation of genetic (antibody, antigenic, and other) diversity. Pseudogenes are involved in gene conversion or recombination with functional genes……” 3) I'm looking forward for when ...

... way as phagocytes do, so MHC II present pieces of the molecules, or MHC II in B cell present whole molecules as they are endocyted? 2. If an antigenic molecule that a B cell receptor can recognize is bound to the surface of a, say, bateria body, does B cell endocyte the entire bacteria body? ...

... receptors and basically plasma b cells carry antibodies, they secrete antibodies So do naive, not yet activated (but immunocompetent) have its own antigenic receptors, but how do they know how to respond to foreign antigens (bc they mature in the bone marrow and they know which ones are self antigens), ...
