    Background
    Human IgG belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily as the most abundant antibody isotype in human serum, comprising four subclasses (IgG1-4) produced by plasma cells during humoral immune responses. Each IgG molecule forms a Y-shaped monomer from two identical γ heavy chains and two κ or λ light chains linked by disulfide bonds, with each heavy chain containing one variable domain (VH), three constant domains (CH1, CH2, CH3), and a flexible hinge region between CH1 and CH2. The Fab arms encompass VL/VH and CL/CH1 domains forming antigen-binding sites generated via V(D)J recombination and somatic hypermutation for high-affinity recognition, while the Fc region from CH2-CH3 domains mediates effector functions through interactions with Fcγ receptors and C1q. IgG1 and IgG3 excel at activating complement via classical pathway C1q binding at CH2 residues 318-337, leading to C3b opsonization, membrane attack complex formation, and pathogen lysis. Binding to FcγRI, IIa, or IIIa on NK cells, macrophages, and neutrophils triggers antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), releasing perforin/granzyme for target cell elimination, with IgG1 showing highest potency due to extended hinge flexibility. Phagocytes engulf opsonized microbes through FcγRIIa-mediated phagocytosis, enhanced by PI3K signaling for cytoskeletal rearrangement. IgG crosses placenta via neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) on syncytiotrophoblasts, providing passive immunity to fetuses, while serum half-life extends to 21 days through FcRn recycling in endothelial cells.
