Illustration of antibodies (yellow) binding to the antigens of a Sars-CoV-2 virus. Antibodies are y-shaped proteins with two arms that can bind pathogens. Every antibody can bind two pathogens leading to the formation of antibody-antigen-clusters. These clusters are attacked by the immune system. Antibodies also neutralize pathogens directly by blocking their binding sites. | |
