GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

CD79B (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

B29, IGB

Description

CD79b molecule, immunoglobulin-associated beta (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

The B lymphocyte antigen receptor is a multimeric complex that includes the antigen-specific component, surface immunoglobulin (Ig). Surface Ig non-covalently associates with two other proteins, Ig-alpha and Ig-beta, which are necessary for expression and function of the B-cell antigen receptor. This gene encodes the Ig-beta protein of the B-cell antigen component. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
