Resource summary

Antigen Recognition- Innate Vs. Adaptive

Innate
1. Pathogens are recognised by receptors encoded in the germline
  1. Pattern Recognition Receptors
2. Receptors have broad specificity
  1. Recognise Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns
3. Immediate Response
4. No memory of prior exposure
Adaptive
1. Pathogen recognised by randomly generated receptors encoded after birth
  1. T Cell/B Cell Receptors
2. Receptors have a very narrow specificity
  1. Recognise specific antigens
3. Slow response (3-5 days)
