I. (noun)
Sense 1
Meaning:
One of the five major classes of immunoglobulins; the main antibody defense against bacteria
Synonyms:
IgG; immunoglobulin G
Classified under:
Hypernyms ("IgG" is a kind of...):
Ig; immune gamma globulin; immune globulin; immune serum globulin; immunoglobulin (a class of proteins produced in lymph tissue in vertebrates and that function as antibodies in the immune response)
Context examples:
These cells do possess Fc receptors for IgG and can kill target cells using antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity.

An IgG murine monoclonal antibody directed against the ganglioside GD3 glycolipid, located in the cell membranes of some tumor cells.
(Monoclonal Antibody R24, NCI Thesaurus)
Specific for both the immunoglobulin G (IgG) receptor CD16 and c-erbB-2, bispecific antibody 2B1 may enhance cellular immune responses against c-erbB-2-positive cells, resulting in increased tumor cell lysis.
(Bispecific Antibody 2B1, NCI Thesaurus)
The determination of the amount of anti-single stranded DNA IgG present in a sample.
(Anti-Single Stranded DNA IgG Measurement, NCI Thesaurus)
A measurement of the anti-single stranded DNA IgG antibody in a biological specimen.
(Anti-Single Stranded DNA IgG Measurement, NCI Thesaurus/CDISC)
A Fc-domain optimized IgG monoclonal antibody directed against the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) with potential immunomodulating and antineoplastic activities.
(Anti-HER2 Monoclonal Antibody MGAH22, NCI Thesaurus)
Compared to intact IgG antibodies, single-chain antibodies such as MR1scFv are smaller and may penetrate tumors better.
(Anti-EGFRvIII Immunotoxin MR1-1, NCI Thesaurus)
A tetravalent bispecific antibody directed against human CD30 and the human low affinity IgG Fc region receptor (FCGR3A; CD16A), with potential immunomodulating and antineoplastic activities.
