Antibodies are large proteins that often bind their targets

Antibodies are large proteins that often bind their targets with high specificity and affinity. Because of this they are used to treat diseases with intracellular targets, such as nuclear receptors.

1.True

2.False

Solution

True.

In human therapeutics monoclonal antibodies promise a new era for antibody tools in therapy and research. Antibodies targeting intracellular proteins can effectively be used to stop cancer growth. Moreover it was found that the antibody which can recognise intracellular antigen can be potentially used as vaccine to Trigger antibody production by the host immune system. Such type of triggering helps in preventing cancer from developing
