The protease papain cleaves their Fc portion from their Fab portion. The antinuclear type of these molecules is present in sufferers of lupus. They can participate in opsonization, and ELISA can be used to determine their concentration. These Y-shaped molecules consist of two heavy chains and two light chains. Hybridomas are needed to produce the monoclonal type, which are specific for the same epitope. Part of the humoral response, they are secreted by B cells. For 10 points, name these proteins that bind to a specific antigen in an immune response.
