Molecular Models
This web page allows you to examine and compare the structures of the major
classes of antigen binding proteins. The models are rendered using the
Jmol applet, which will load automatically on your computer when the page opens. You may need to disable the popup blocker of your browser to allow
the page to load. Click on 'Test your knowledge' to do so; while at the
same time learning how to use the Jmol popup menu to render the molecules in
different ways.
Other Web Resources
These are links to various educational resources in
immunology. I have have intentionally not made this an exhaustive list; rather,

of these sites provide links to other immunology-related web sites, which you
are encouraged to explore.
