Abstract

The study of the general structure of macroglobulins and 7S immunoglobulins of shark and hen by the polarisation fluorescence method shows that shark immunoglobulins have a compact general structure whereas 7S hen immunoglobulins have a fairly flexible general structure. It is seen from our evidence, as compared to previous data on other classes, that the general structure becomes more flexibles on passing from cold-blooded to representatives of warm-blooded vertebrates.
