General Notes
Rat anti Mouse CD79b antibody, clone AT107-2 recognizes a cytoplasmic region of mouse B-cell antigen receptor complex-associated protein beta chain, also known as B-cell-specific glycoprotein B29, Ig-beta, or Immunoglobulin-associated B29 protein. CD79b is a 228 amino acid, including a 26 signal peptide ~40 kDa type I single pass transmembrane glycoprotein. CD79b is expressed by B lymphocytes and associates with CD79a to form a heterodimer, non-covalently linked to surface immunoglobulin, forming the B-cell receptor (BCR) complex. Rat anti Mouse CD79b antibody, clone AT107-2 also recognizes a homologous region of human CD79b.
