Antigen-Antibody Reactions | Biomolecular Reactions | Immunology

Antigen (Ag) antibody (Ab) reactions occur when an antigen combines with a corresponding antibody to produce an immune complex. Therefore, an antigen-antibody reaction is thus a bimolecular association which is similar to an enzyme-substrate interaction but the only difference is that antigen-antibody reaction does not lead to an irreversible chemical interaction. The basis for antigen-antibody reactions are the non-covalent interactions [...]
