Background:

CD79 (also designated Ig α/Ig β) is a heterodimer composed of α chains,designated CD79A or MB-1, and β chains, designated CD79B or B29. The B cell antigen receptor complex (BCR) is formed by the association of CD79 with a membrane immunoglobulin, such as IgM or IgD. The membrane immunoglobulins IgM and IgD achieve surface expression and antigen presentation function in response to CD79 association. The cytoplasmic tails of both CD79A and CD79B contain an ITAM (immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation) motif, which acts to initiate the BCR signaling reactions by binding to and activating tyrosine kinases.

Specificity:

CD79a polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of CD79a protein.
