General description
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is a key member of immunoglobulin family. It is extensively expressed in serum and is characterized with a gamma (γ) heavy chain in the constant (C) region. Monomeric structure of IgG constitutes two identical heavy chains and two identical light chains with molecular weight of 50kDa and 25kDa respectively. The primary structure of this antibody also contains disulfide bonds involved in linking the two heavy chains, linking the heavy and light chains and resides inside the chains. IgG has four sub-classes namely, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4 with different heavy chains, named γ1,γ2, γ3, and γ4, respectively. IgG is formed and released from CD5+B cells, the most important lymphocytes in the neonatal cell repertoire. Maternal IgG is the only antibody transported from placenta to the fetus. Maternal IgG passively immunizes the infants.
