Various Protein Types Notice how the carbohydrate chain is arranged.  The chain is straight then branches off in various directions with various numbers in each mini-chain. This is pattern is unique to each individual.
- Each cell develops its own type of glycolipid and glycoprotein. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],                          
Some more examples of chain patterns
Various chain patterns Some are straight, some are branched, and some are isomers.  They often have different numbers of carbohydrates too!
- Immune system is able to recognize that the foreign tissue’s cells do not have the same glycolipids/proteins as the rest of the body.  The immune system will attack the newly received transplant.  This is called transplant rejection. To succeed, an individual has to take anti-rejection medication usually for the rest of their life.  These medications  suppress the Immune system, weakens it, but doesn’t destroy all of the T and B cells.  The body can still can fight off most infections.  Cons of medication:  People who take immunosuppressive drugs are more likely to develop diabetes, kidney disease, infections and cancer. Pros of medication: They get to live! Transplants
