An equilibrium dialysis experiment was performed to characterize the bind- ing affinity of a mouse IgG or human IgG antibody for an antigen, GAD65. The association constant for the monoclonal mouse IgG is
and for a human IgG is
a. Calculate the dissociation constant for each antibody. Which antibody has a higher binding affinity for GAD65? Explain.
b. For a GAD65 concentration of 0.7 nM, calculate the fraction of free Ab sites for each antibody.
