Abstract:
Four monoclonal antibodies have been produced, which are specific for the Ca2+ or Sr2(+)-induced conformation of human factor IX. Certain, but not all, gamma-carboxy-glutamic acid residues in factor IX are involved in the epitope expression together with the conformation stabilized by the adjacent region of Gla-domain and a disulfide bridge. All the antibodies interfered with the binding of factor IX to phospholipids and inhibited the procoagulant activity of factors IX and IXa beta.

Antibody Structure
Antibodies, also known as immunoglobulins (Ig), are essential players of the adaptive immune system. These antigen-binding proteins are produced by B cells and make up 20 percent of the total blood plasma by weight. In mammals, antibodies fall into five different classes, which each elicits a different biological response upon antigen binding.

Antibody Structure and Classes
The basic structure of an antibody consists of four protein chains: two identical heavy chains and two identical light chains. These chains are held together by disulfide bonds and other non-covalent interactions, forming a Y-shaped structure.
