Most often, antigens are composed of glycoproteins. An antigen is a molecule with the possibility to induce an immune response. An antigen is recognized inside the body by antibodies produced to match an antigen and to come into contact with it. Antigens can be peptides (amino acid chains), polysaccharides or lipids.
