抗体,也叫免疫球蛋白(Ig),是一种能特异性结合抗原的糖蛋白,而抗原是在易感染动物体内引发抗体产生的物质。在体内,抗体是由于外源性分子的侵袭而产生的。抗体以一个或者多个Y字形单体存在,每个Y字形单体由4条多肽链组成,包含两条相同的重链和两条相同的轻链。轻链和重链是根据它们的分子量大小来命名的。Y字形结构的顶端是可变区,为抗原结合部位。任何一个抗体的轻链都可以分为κ或λ型(基于小分子多肽结构上的差异),每一个抗体的重链则决定了它的类或型。

背景
CASP9 encodes a member of the cysteine-aspartic acid protease (caspase) family. Sequential activation of caspases plays a central role in the execution-phase of cell apoptosis. Caspases exist as inactive proenzymes which undergo proteolytic processing at conserved aspartic residues to produce two subunits, large and small, that dimerize to form the active enzyme. Caspase 9 can undergo autoproteolytic processing and activation by the apoptosome, a protein complex of cytochrome c and the apoptotic peptidase activating factor 1; this step is thought to be one of the earliest in the caspase activation cascade. Caspase 9 is thought to play a central role in apoptosis and to be a tumor suppressor. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
