D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Antibodies are protective proteins produced by your immune system. They attach to antigens (foreign substances)-such as bacteria, fungi, viruses and toxins-and remove them from your body.

Detailed explanation-2: -Antibodies can be used for the prevention and treatment of bacterial infections in animal models of disease. Current antibody technology allows the generation of high affinity human/humanized antibodies that can be optimized for antibacterial activity and in vivo biodistribution and pharmacokinetics.

Detailed explanation-3: -Not only does protein help make antibodies, but three specific amino acids play a direct role in the immune response: Glutamine is a conditionally essential amino acid which supports the creation and multiplication of lymphocytes (a type of antibody) and the production of cell-signaling cytokines.
