At the organizational, cellular and molecular genetic levels, the ideas about the factors of congenital and mechanisms for the formation of adaptive (acquired) immunity are summarized. Information about populations of the cells of the immune system, receptor structures of immunocytes, mechanisms for the formation of intracellular signaling pathways, the main complex of histocompatibility, genetic control of immunity, immunological memory is given.
