This book presents a comprehensive overview of important immune molecules and their structure-function relationships. Immune system is a highly complex system composed of a network of molecules, cells, tissues and organs. The immune reaction is involved in many physiological as well as pathological processes including development, self-tolerance, infection, immunity, and cancer. Many molecules are participating in various immune recognition, inhibition and activation. These important immune molecules can be roughly divided into cell surface receptors, intracellular receptors and intracellular signaling molecules. The study of how these immune molecules work at molecular level has laid a foundation for understanding the immune system. The book provides researchers and students with the current research advances concerning the structural biology of some key immune molecules/pathways. It offers immunologists essential insights into molecular level information of how these immune molecules work.
