In terms of antibody structure, most antibodies are Y shaped and comprises four subunits, two heavy chains and two light chains. Each light chain and a moiety of each heavy chain pairs together via one disulfide bond to form the upper branch of ‘Y’, also named as Fab (antigen-binding fragment). The rest part of two heavy chain form the root of ‘Y’ via two disulfide bonds, also named Fc. https://www.creative-biolabs.com/antibody-antigen-faq.htm
