Svensk definition
Tunga kedjor i Fab- och Fc-fragmenten hos immunglobulin G, med en molekylvikt av ca 51 kD. De innehåller ungefär 450 aminosyrarester ordnade i fyra domäner och har en oligosackaridkomponent med kovalent bindning till Fc-fragmentet. Gammakedjorna hos de fyra undergrupperna av IgG är inte identiska, men liknar varandra mer än de liknar andra immunglobuliners tunga kedjor.
Engelsk definition
Heavy chains of IMMUNOGLOBULIN G having a molecular weight of approximately 51 kDa. They contain about 450 amino acid residues arranged in four domains and an oligosaccharide component covalently bound to the Fc fragment constant region. The gamma heavy chain subclasses (for example, gamma 1, gamma 2a, and gamma 2b) of the IMMUNOGLOBULIN G isotype subclasses (IgG1, IgG2A, and IgG2B) resemble each other more closely than the heavy chains of the other IMMUNOGLOBULIN ISOTYPES.
