Mammalian Antibody Classes
• Antibodies are classed according to the type of
immunoglobulin heavy chain
• In addition each antibody class can have either κ
(kappa) or λ (lambda) immunoglobulin light chains
• In mammals we recognise the following classes and
chains

IgM μ

IgD
δ
(delta)

IgG
γ
(gamma)

subclasses
• In many species some of the classes are further subdivided
into subclasses dependent upon the existence of multiple
sub-types of immunoglobulin heavy chain
• In humans the IgG class is divided into four subclasses
IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 and IgG4, and the IgA class into IgA1
and IgA2
• In mice the IgG class is divided into IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b
and IgG3. In some laboratory strains of mice a fifth
subclass called IgG2c has been identified although
historically this was originally classified as an allelic form
of the IgG2a subclass.
• In rats the IgG class is divided into IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b and
IgG2c
• Despite the similarity in nomenclature the subclasses have
arisen independently in different species and thus there is
no general functional relationship between the subclasses
from each species.

are very similar in sequence but they still
have different properties
Fc Receptors
• Cells of the immune system interact with antibodies using
receptors that bind to conserved structures within the constant
region domains of the immunoglobulin heavy chains, the so
called Fc region
• These receptors for antibody are thus called Fc receptors or
FcR
• Different FcR exist which show specificity for different
classes and also for different subclasses of antibody
• Of particular importance for therapeutic applications of
antibodies are those receptors that recognise IgG, the FcγR

The Brambell receptor or FcRn
• This is a very important receptor with respect
to the mammalian IgG class of antibody, first
hypothesised by Brambell and thus called by
some FcRB

In adult mammals this receptor is widely
expressed, particularly on cells of the endothlium
and acts by rescuing IgG from degradation within
the endocytic pathway

The receptor is also responsible for the transport
of maternal IgG to the neonate, hence the
alternative name neonatal FcR or FcRn
The IgG receptor FcRn
Interaction with FcRn and with Protein A through similar
region
FcRn is important for IgG
half-life and transport
Effect of half-life on antibody concentration
FcRn increases the half-life of IgG to about 21 days as
compared to IgM which has a half-life of about 3 days.
