Immunoglobulins are basically proteins that function as antibodies. The terms antibody and immunoglobulin are often used interchangeably. Immunoglobulins are found in blood and other tissues and fluids. They are made by the plasma cells that are derived from the B cells of the immune system.B cells of the immune system become plasma cells when activated by the binding of a specific antigen on its antibody surfaces.hey are made by the plasma cells that are derived from the B cells of the immune system.

Immunoglobulins (Ig), also called antibodies (Ab) , are large Y-shape proteins produced by plasma cells that are used by the immune system to identify and neutralize foreign objects such as bacteria and viruses. The antibody recognizes a unique part of the foreign target, called an antigen.he specificity of the immunoglobulin molecule (i.e., whether it will bind to a poliovirus, an E. coli cell, or some other antigen) is determined by the amino acid sequence of the variable regions at the amino-terminal ends of the heavy and light chains.
