To describe:
The structure of a B-cell receptor.
Concept introduction:
B-cells or B-lymphocytes are the major cellular components, which takes part in the active immune response. B-cells are developed and mature in the bone marrow as immune competent cells. They take part in the antibody-mediated immune response.
To determine:
The portion of the B cell receptor which binds to the antigen.
