    The thermodynamic parameters of the stabilization of the native structure C(H)2 domains of human myeloma immunoglobulin LOM and SIN second subclass and their firstly obtained hFc fragments were determined using the methods of scanning microcalorimenry. A decrease in the termal stability and energy stability of the native of these domains in the intact proteins correlated in the "phisiological" range of temperatures (20-37 degrees C), mainly, with entropy factor.

    Conservation of Protein Domains Over Different Proteins

    Protein domains are small structurally independent units that are part of a single amino acid chain.  Although these domains are often structurally independent, they may rely on synergistic effects to perform their functions as part of a larger protein. Protein domains may be conserved within the same organism, as well as across different organisms.
    A limited set of protein domains often duplicate and recombine during evolution. These domains can be organized in different combinations to...

    Globular Proteins

    In organisms, proteins are the most abundant macromolecules. They act as the building blocks of life and play various crucial roles in the body. Proteins can be broadly classified into two distinct subtypes based on their shape and solubilities: globular proteins and fibrous proteins.
    Globular proteins serve many important physiological functions, such as acting as enzymes, cellular messengers, and molecular transporters. These roles often require the proteins to be soluble in the aqueous...

    Antibody Structure

    Overview
    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.
    The Y-Shaped Structure of Antibodies Consists of Four Polypeptide Chains
    Antibodies consist of four polypeptide chains: two identical heavy...

    Thermodynamics: Activity Coefficient

    Activity is the measure of the effective concentration of the species in solution. It can be expressed as the product of the molar concentration of the species and its activity coefficient. The activity coefficient is a dimensionless quantity and depends on the total ionic strength of the solution.
    The activity coefficient is a measure of the deviation from ideal behavior. When the ionic strength of the solution is minimal, the activity coefficient of an ionic species is close to unity, making...
