Abstract
Antibody synthesis is essentially protein synthesis in the presence of antigen deposited in the cell. This synthesis takes place in 2 phases. The 1st consists in the reproduction of a 2-dimensional protein film, the 2d in the folding of the film to form a 3-dimen-sional globular molecule. Antigens interfere only in the second phase of protein synthesis.Keywords
