13C NMR study of the mode of interaction in solution of the B fragment of staphylococcal protein A and the Fc fragments of mouse immunoglobulin G [PDF]
The mode of interaction of the B domain (FB) of staphylococcal protein A and the Fc fragments of mouse immunoglobulin G (IgG) has been investigated by 13C NMR spectroscopy.

Interactions among rheumatoid synovial cells and monocyte-macrophages: production of collagenase-stimulating factor by human monocytes exposed to concanavalin A or immunoglobulin Fc fragments. [PDF]
Adherent synovial cells (ASC) were obtained from minced synovium from patients with rheumatoid arthritis by dissociating the lining cells from the extracellular matrix and dispersing them with proteases.

The Fab region of IgG impairs the internalization pathway of FcRn upon Fc engagement
Disrupting the association between the Immunoglobulin G constant fragment (Fc) and the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) by engineered antibodies is a promising strategy to reduce autoantibody levels in autoimmune diseases.

Conformation changes and dissociation of Fc fragments of rabbit immunoglobulin G as a function of pH [PDF]
1. The sedimentation coefficients of rabbit immunoglobulin G, four types of Fc fragments, univalent Fab and bivalent F(ab)(2) fragments were measured as a function of pH. 2. In conjunction with molecular-weight determinations by sedimentation equilibrium,
