Rosetta Antibody is a novel antibody F V region structure prediction server, which incorporates sophisticated techniques to minimize CDR loops and optimize the relative orientation of the light and heavy chains, as well as homology models that predict successful docking of antibodies with their unique antigen.

An antibody molecule. The two heavy chains are colored red, blue, and purple. The two light chains green and yellow. See also: The immunoglobulin light chain is the small polypeptide subunit of an antibody (immunoglobulin). A typical antibody is composed of two immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy chains and two Ig light chains.
An antibody digested by papain yields three fragments, two Fab fragments and one Fc fragment An antibody digested by pepsin yields two fragments: a F(ab') 2 fragment and a pFc' fragment The fragment crystallizable region ( Fc region ) is the tail region of an antibody that interacts with cell surface receptors called Fc receptors and some ...
Complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) are polypeptide segments of the variable chains in immunoglobulins (antibodies) and T cell receptors, generated by B-cells and T-cells respectively. CDRs are where these molecules bind to their specific antigen and their structure/sequence determines the binding activity of the respective antibody.
The universal structure of antibody includes the constant regions part of the fragment crystallizable(Fc) region of the antibody (shown in dark blue). It also includes the fragment antigen binding which is composed of one heavy and one light chain (shown as L for light and H for heavy).
Antibody (or immunoglobulin) structure is made up of two heavy-chains and two light-chains.These chains are held together by disulfide bonds.The arrangement or processes that put together different parts of this antibody molecule play important role in antibody diversity and production of different subclasses or classes of antibodies.
The immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) is the large polypeptide subunit of an antibody (immunoglobulin). In human genome, the IgH gene loci are on chromosome 14. A typical antibody is composed of two immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy chains and two Ig light chains. Several different types of heavy chain exist that define the class or isotype of an ...
Structure of a Fab with light and heavy chains. The fragment antigen-binding region (Fab region) is a region on an antibody that binds to antigens.It is composed of one constant and one variable domain of each of the heavy and the light chain.
