Q.98) Identify the statement that is NOT correct.
A) Constant region of heavy and light chains are located at C-terminus of antibody molecules.
B) Each antibody has two light and two heavy chains.
C) The heavy and light chains are held together by disulfide bonds.
D) Antigen binding site is located at
Antibodies have two regions:
→ Variable region (V region) → at the N-terminal, this part binds to the antigen.
→ Constant region (C region) → at the C-terminal, this part decides the antibody’s class and function.
So, the antigen-binding site is at the N-terminal, not at the C-terminal.
Hence, option (4) is correct.
